  5. Actually, the answer to your question would depend on the genre you are writing. If it is sci-fi, then you will want to play with semantics. If the story is historical then you will want to use a name from that era. Also, you should consider if he is a main character or a minor character. Minor characters should have names that will not overwhelm the main character. A main character, protaganist or antaganist, should have memorable names that reveal character.

  9. i agree with the guy who suggested molding the names around what type of story it is.  it is sort of anticlimactic to have a guy born 3000 years in the future named Matt.  Just as it is unrealistic for and ancient egyptian to be named Bob.  for a modern book, just stick with the basic guy's names

    -Mattew, Christopher (chris) John, Richard, William, Luke (Lucas) etc.

    as a piece of advice, don't name your "good guy" (if there is one) "Vlad" or  something unless you have a good reason for doing so.  just...don't.
