Now, I mentioned in the previous paragraph that I use baby name sites. They're quite useful if you want a relatively normal name. Simply Google something such as boy names and hundreds of baby name sites will pop up. Just look through some of their lists until you find a name that fits.
Another way to find the perfect name for that character is to translate common words into different languages. Doing this is a great way to come up with fantasy names. For an example, if you translate the word assassination into Latin you'll get Caedis. You can do this with just about any language and get rather interesting results.
You could also put sounds together to create a new word. This also works great for creating fantasy names. An example of this would be Kaltinca, which is a name I just created combining the sounds Kal-tin-ca. If you do this to create a name Google it to make sure it doesn't mean anything weird.
Another option for naming your characters is to Google names that mean a particular thing. Such as if you Google names that mean strong you'll get names such as: Arnold, Bree, and Kari.
So, there are four wonderful ways to find a name for that pesky character who refuses to tell you his/her name. So, that's all for now folks! Have a wonderful day.
