I agree that the names you choose ultimately will depend on the storyline, the time and age of the character, the ethnic and cultural background of the character and so on!. This would be true in naming places as well for example, you would not expect to find a place called Widow's Peak in China but you might believe that it existed in the New England states!. Anyway, here is my list:
Women
Veronica, Emily, Ethel, Rosemary, Helen, Erica, Lisa, Amanda, Helga, Olga, Maria, Sofia, Tatiana, Eleni, Nikki, Monica, Lizzie, Alma, Leslie, Asia, Eva, Ida,Olivia I even know a girl who's legal name is Precious
Men
Ashton, Wilford, Albert, Zach, Bruce, Dirk, Gerald, Harvey, Curly, Evan, Manfred, Alekos, Niko, Gianni, Morris, Boris, Klaus, Pavlo, Leo, Randal, Martin, Deano, Spiro
Pets
Daisy, Princess, Tiger, Slash, Muffin, Scarlett, Cracker, Froggie (for a dog), Tulips, Duke, Sport, Diablo, Flash, Cinder, Clyde, Fabacher, Yeager, Chivas, Bud
Places
Woolmarket, Cider Creek, Willowsburg, Appleton, Wikiki, River Springs, Mount Elberg, Puddleton, Ocean Front, Pickelville

I also like old family surnames as first names
McKenzie, Morgan, Lloyd, Murphy, Massey, Anderson, Wilson, Clinton, Dixon, Clairmont, Montgomery, Carter

Good Luck! JoanneWww@QuestionHome@Com

Go to the telephone directory!. It has a fair number of names!. You don't have to use the telephone numbers!.

As for pets, people call their pets any old thing!. Big Ears, Fido, Danny, Friday, Boo Boo, Zat, Franklin--any old thing!. I like pet names that seem as though no one would ever think of them!. My neighbor has a parrot called Vaughn!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Baby naming sites!.!.also it helps to know that the name has a special meaning!.

It depends on what era (eg: victorian, modern!.) your story setting is on and if the name is suitable!.

Here's a few of my favourites!.
- Jackson
- Brice
- Kiera
- Heldi
- Cherry
- TheodoreWww@QuestionHome@Com

It just depends upon the character and the story!. Your character's age, ethnicity, personality, and when and where the story takes place effect things hugely in this respect!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Loelle, Sophie, Kinsella, Tellie, Fellirose, Isabella
Mark, Matt, Dick, Jordan, Letank, Rain, SummerWww@QuestionHome@Com

Sometimes when I am in need for some good names I will go through some of my old year books!. That way your still picking them out and not getting them off of yahoo!.
