FOUR DAYS
YAY!! I'm leaving for Italy in four days! I won't be back until July 10th, but hopefully I'll get access to a computer so I can read some of your posts and stories. That and I'm gradutating from high school in 3 days.
I'm curious, where did you come up with the names of the characters in your story? Are they of any significance?

Sounded JUST like De Niro, didn't I? ;)
Congrats on your graduation!! That's awesome. And yay for Italy. I'm WAY jealous of that. Ride a gondola for me. ;)
If you *were* talking to me about character names (or just asking peeps in general) I'll tell ya mine. ;)
Most of my character names start out in the "random name generator" thingy on the game. Dane came from there (with slight spelling modification) but I made up her last name. A version of Lirik's name came from there too. It reminded me that I've always wanted to use the name "Lirik" but never found a character it suited. After I had Lirik, I made up Lanik to make it sound a bit twin-ish. Thrakill is a modification of the last name of the dude who cleans our windows at work. I thought is sounded cool and evil so I took it. ;) Deke, Leigh, Raff O'Bannon,and Elin are all original, everyone else was name generator. So, no significance. :)
And you?

Was that a little reference to Sarte?
In my first big fic, I used a combo name from RPGs that I played. Aerin was elven and Dakar was Romulan. Some of the OC bad guys I had were composites of really bad leaders that I know. Brutus Ergot was derived from the Roman traitor and some bad leaders' names to make Ergot which is a fungus that makes people insane.
