Character Name Generator

Using a character name generator is fast and easy and gets you back to writing.

Character names are an essential part of the story writing process. Some people can come up with names with ease, while other people ask around or do intense thinking to find that perfect name.

Instead of wasting valuable writing time, why not use a name generator to do the grunt work for you.

Before I discovered the program below, I too would waste valuable time hunting down names. My favorite way would be to watch movie credits and write down unique names. I wanted to make sure my characters didn't have plain common names, but different to make them stand out more.

After doing a lot of research online I found several free character name generators (I've listed one below). If that's all you need it for great, but if you're like me and you want to buy something permanent and dependable for you to use time and time again, WordMaker Business Naming Software is a great choice. It allows you to create your own language, or world, or unique names for planets, places, cities, and much more.

Or maybe you're a business owner and you're interested in finding names for your businesses, products, or websites, this tool is for you. If you're serious about writing, having a unique name generator is a must.

Another nice bonus is, if English is not your first language, don't worry, the program works for any language. This program is a bit of money, but you pay once and it's yours for life. WordMaker Business Naming Software - Makes Naming Easy also can be used for business writing, proposal writing, story writing, and much more.

But...if you're looking for a free generator, a great one to try is random character name generator. It allows you to search for names based on gender, race or how many middle names you want.

Now that you know how to find a name, perhaps you are struggling to write the perfect main character. A tool to help you is 1001 character quirks for writing fiction.
