Hey mousers! I really wanna pick your brains right now. If you've seen my 3D image www.graphicmouse.com/m...id=13.html
then you know I created them for a Sci-Fi tale I'm in the process of writing for DSF&F. The problem is that as the story is coming along I still haven't come up with suitable names for the 3 main characters. I'd be interested in your takes on this. Remember they're not superheroes so let's not go the LeopardMan and WhiteWarrior route okay? Thanx. :-D

Didn't you have names for these guys already? A little background on them would help.

Welll Duhhhh, Chris! That's why I need help.
I suppose I could supply some background info but then I would be revealing a huge chunk of the story. Besides what do ya need bio info for to create a Star trek-type name? Just imagine they were your creations..what would you name them?

Alright I'm pretty good at this having created about 1,000 characters myself. :-D So, here are my ideas:
Big Guy - "Brutok" - derived from "Brute" with the letters "tok" joined with it simply because it sounds alien.
Woman - "Niara Adla" - I looked up African names and found two Swahili ones which mean "High Purpose" and "Justice" and put them together in that order.
Leopard Man - "Cougaro Grimalkin" - I just looked up some synonyms for leopard and Cougar and Grimalkin are two that came up. So, I just went the Thundercat route and added an O to cougar.

Okay It's settled then. Can we get one of the ads to lock this thread?
