Okay. I’m trying to embrace my inner “sci-fi nerd” and am starting to write a sci-fi story. The only problem is, I otherwise tend to stick to more proper / royal / “old” names such as [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m], [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m], and [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f].
I need names (a list?) that sound “sci-fi” (you know, those quirky, weird names that all sound alien to us). My names so far are names that are used that I just really like, but the three named characters I have are also the closest to “human” I am getting.
So far I have:
[name_f]Mona[/name_f] - I really love this name (no idea why) and kind of wish it was used more - fits my soft, headstrong (not sure how those two words describe the same person but…) 17 year-old girl
[name_m]Kian[/name_m] - This name sounds more “out-there” than I tend to go, but I like it, especially as a male name.
[name_u]Ren[/name_u] - This one CAN CHANGE - I don’t really like it. So, please, if anyone has any suggestions, that would be awesome! --v

- Okay - I don’t have any other characters who need names at this point, but I really just want a list to fall back on. As you can see, they don’t need to be super weird, but nothing more “normal” than [name_f]Mona[/name_f].
– One last thing! Each of the characters is kind of a part of a species (like in [name_f]Star[/name_f] Trek). I have found random name generators that help, but most of the time just end up hitting a bunch of keys and making a name from the letters. Help is appreciated! I have Aliduv & Durok so far…
Thank you!
