I name my OCs after poems, songs, and/or themes. Some examples are Ozymandias (Impermenance,) Solomon (My fursona’s dad, named after a poem about a father’s suicide,) and Gindoc Juiliano (flower in Greek, and is similar to Gin and Juice by Snoop Dogg.)

I came up with the name Karunabi by putting cool snake through google translate to Japanese, and just scrambling around the letters until I got smth cool sounding. Its a fun method for sure

I love naming characters! It's my favorite ^^ I love going over there and things or flipping through a baby name book and finding a name with just the right meaning

One of my favorite things to do with fictional names is come up with a name that’s homonymous with a real word. For example, I have an oc named Sheyd. Since a lot of his character revolves around darkness, I took the word “shade” and modified it a bit.
