How do you deal with naming block / confusion?

I have something opposite to the naming block - I like too many names and cannot narrow down them and cannot make any combos right now, and the worse is that they are of the style that I am not usually used to. I feel like my style is drastically changing again, yet I still like my old names, so there is a clash of styles. What do you do in these cases to narrow down combos or more specific styles in case of names?

Some ideas:

  • Sort your names into categories so they feel in cohesive sets at least
  • You could try mixing and matching from these categories to bring some balance between the styles?
  • Maybe give yourself the challenge of making a set number of combos from each category? So say you have 5 different styles, you could make four from each, to make a top twenty?
  • Initial challenges - I like to come up with a series of initials, then make up combos based on that - it can encourage you to work with different names
  • Be okay with having different styles together - eclectic lists are cool :slight_smile:
