Name List - Favorite TV Character Names

rptpositive:

Hello everyone! Below the cut is a list of my favorite names from TV shows. I have separated it into traditionally feminine/female, traditionally masculine/male, and traditionally non-binary/unisex. I tried to make the lists even, between 5-10 names. If you have any names that you wish I included, feel free to send them to me!

TO THOSE MAKING NATIVE OCS

aphromanoo:

I see this a lot, no one has actual names, or any reference for names, that are legit Native American, varying among the tribes, for their characters.

Babynames.com and shit like that will give you names made up by white people.

However, I’ve got your solution.

Native-Languages  is a good website to turn to for knowledge on a lot of native things, including native names. If you’re unsure about the names you’ve picked, they even have a list of made up names here!

Please don’t trust names like babynames.com for native names, they’re made up and often quite offensive to the cultures themselves.

Naming your characters is a pain in the ass, don’t lie

lexiesmusings:

Are YOU struggling with naming your characters? Going through pages of names and finding nothing you like? Want something fitting to suit their background? Don’t want the same French surname that everybody use such as Devereux for your French character? Well I got the thing for you. 

Writing Adolescent Fiction/Character Names

It has a ton of names (including surnames) from different ethnic groups. It also describes the usage of the name. You’ll definitely be learning something new when going through these pages. 

corneliahelps:

under the cut is a masterlist of 426 names inspired by some of the most popular musical theatre characters. they are sorted alphabetically into female, male, unisex and surnames, however you can use them interchangeably if you wish. i’ve included the musical(s) they’re from alongside the name. not all characters are included, so my apologies if you don’t see any of your favorites !! this took a while to compile so please like/reblog if you find these useful !!

nature inspired names {part one}

vangccgh:

In celebration of hitting another hundred of followers who I’m unconditionally grateful to I decided to make this quite huge masterlist of names I had planned to do for so so long !! So this masterlist includes 44 girl names, 42 boy names and 8 unisex names in alphabetical order that are inspired by nature, flowers, trees and jewels. However since I am lazy and there is so many names I decided to do it on parts and this is part one !! I’ll most probably do part two once I hit another hundred but in this one are names from A to I !! I hope you like it, if you do please like this or reblog it and thank you for 400 followers !! You guys are the best !!
