How did wewe come up with your character's name?

Ace- "Smooth songesha Ace,"
Dan-Always like that name
Kris- I don't like Chris.
Jack- A friend

I thought.

I do this with all my characters:

I find a common English name and add a common Spanish surname.

...or I make up the first name and add an Ancient Greek surname.

It's so stupid. xD

Blaze is fire. Blake sounds like Blaze. Avis is bird in Latin. Phoenix is a bird.

Depend's on the character. For my main character I took my name in Japanese, then added a middle and last name at random.

Usually I tried using names from ancient greek au rome mythologies, shadows was different, I just found the greek traslation for what I wanted it to stand for.

What ever mood I'm in. Duh

I come up with the first letter then, follow it with another letter then, boom I make it up
OR
I tafuta in the internet for a name the last name is...purely made kwa mind :D
