I tend to pick names from various books, or more usually, Japanese animation. But then I feel an obscure sense of guilt that I couldn't just make up something pretty on my own, so I tend to warp it a little.

Sorceress: name idea: Miaka (From Fushugi Yugi) name she ended up with: Miakara

I tend to like names that end with 'ara, iri, atha' for females:

Ranger: Ardatha (who maybe came froma Mercedes Lackey book, I think she was a lousy merc captain)
Sorceress: Ikiri (which was me morphing Akira a bit)
Monk: Merlea

Male names:

Blade: Koji
Kensai: Kenshin (ok, blatant steal that will be recognized by anime fans. I feel so guilty!)
Wild Mage: Dillanu (original anime name is Dillandau)

------------------

Playing the cutest li'l Chaotic characters since 1996.
