Are You Writing Serious Fantasy? II

[Elennar Starfire]

1) Take the name of anything: your name, your town's name, anything.
2) Write countries, states, or towns to the side of it.
3) Look at the names you have created, and throw out the ones that don't make sense.

I'd forgotten about that, but I've used it to come up with some very nice names. I usually use one of my friend's names and make up a random sentence. Like this:

E-elephants
L-like
E-eating
N-nasty
N-noses
A-and
R-raspberries

Elephants like eating nasty noses and raspberries.

Liaona...oooh, I like that one, no stealing it!
