Choosing a name for a novel was a very personal matter. One had to consider the theme, plot, characters, and other factors of the novel. Here are some suggestions that might help: 1. Character names must be unique and meaningful. A good character name should be able to summarize the character's characteristics and personality, and at the same time have a certain symbolic meaning. 2. Try to avoid using common names to increase the uniqueness and mystery of the character. 3. Consider the connection between the name and the plot. If a character plays an important role in a particular plot, consider giving them a name related to the plot. 4. Consider the pronunciation and spellings of your name. If the characters come from different places or their names are easily misunderstood, consider using names with unique spellings and pronunciations. Let the name change as the plot develops. If the characters play different roles in a plot, you can consider giving them different names. I hope these suggestions will be helpful. I wish you a smooth writing of your novel!
