I've found it really helpful when writing! Another good one to try is:

They don't just do people names, they do whole character generations and ship names and stuff like that!.

also, you could try www!.babynames!.com !. They have an advanced search option where you can search for names from a specific country of origin, names meaning certain things, gender specific names, etc!.

You could also use a word that describes his personality!. E!.g!. Hope, Faith, Joy, Harmony (All a little girly, I know), or if he's a wild sort of character, you could use a surname like Wildman or Delinqua (like a variation of "delinquent")!.

What you name him also depends on where he's from, what his parents are like (i!.e!. if his parents are really traditional they might call him an old name like Harry or Tom, but if they are more lenient or fun they might name him something different)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Luke Skywalker,
Robert Nevile!.
Lol, I'm just kidding!
Hmm, how about John Walker, Trevor McKinley, Josh Jacobs, Nick Black, Mick or Micheal Faoro!? Of course, you can combine names to suit your needs dude!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You don't say who the character is: protagonist or antagonist!. I'm guessing that he's meant to be the hero of your story since you want his name to be "cool" and "catchy"!. How about Rayne Ryder!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
