Haven’t used this topic in a while, but I think I have a new character for Paper Stars who needs a name.
This character is a scientist who lives on his own in the middle of an asteroid belt, dedicating his life to studying an endangered species of alien squid. He looks human except for his eyes which are black where ours are white, and which have bright blue irises.
Color palette: pastel pink, white, pastel yellow, bright blue
Any ideas?

July 23, 2023 at 1:56 pm #151927Hmm… 🤔 are there any specific letters that are more appealing?? And are you looking for a made-up name, or a real name??
Any noun can become a verb if you don't care enough.
July 23, 2023 at 3:32 pm #151947Umm I’m not sure about letters…
I think I’d rather a made up or more uncommon name since he’s an alien.

I would google character name generators 😉 Or unique boys’ names on Nameberry. If you have names you like the sound of, take those and change a few letters.

July 23, 2023 at 4:02 pm #151953Oh, if he’s a scientist, will his name have a title before it like Dr.? And would you use his last name or first name?

July 23, 2023 at 4:15 pm #151955The scientific order for squid is Teuthoidea. Could you create a name with those letters by mixing them up?

July 23, 2023 at 4:26 pm #151958oh good idea! I will try that
well, I don’t think he went to school or anything for a doctorate, because his universe isn’t that organized. He just kinda started doing things on his own.
So, yeah. He just has a normal name.
