Question: How should I make a witty yet meaningful story title!?
I'm writing a story about a German girl (Who has the name "Sunna" which was the name of the norse sun goddess) who finds out that she is the next in line to become the Aztec sun god!. Since she is religious, she needs persuading by the other Gods, as well as the Incan and Mayan gods, who I have decided to merge together as a group!.
She finds out when she hears that the Mexican Natives have read Aztec writing burned into the sun, and they say that it says, "The germanic Sun Goddess will take his place!." also, the sun is burning out!. it's 2012, the Aztec end of the world!. I hope i explained it in an understandable way!. Thanks!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

ok thats probably a bit cheekier than you would want--its hard to think of a short witty title!.!.plus i dont know the tone of your book are you looking for humour witty--or something more serious!?

You could also do:

The Goddess Within
or
Finding my Inner GoddessWww@QuestionHome@Com

"Sunna Shines"!? Just pick a title that takes a piece of who the main character is and a piece of the desired outcome of the story!. It may end up witty or just fitting to the story!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Don't!. You will agonize over your book title and the publisher will change it!.
How about "Sunna's Place"
Sunna's Destiny
Sunna's Dream
End Days: Goddess SunnaWww@QuestionHome@Com

I don't know!. I do know I hate when authors try to show their intelligence though with "witty yet meaningful" titles though!.!.!.it's like they're trying to prove something!.!.!.out do everyone else:(Www@QuestionHome@Com

To be honest, nobody I know cares about the title of the book they are reading, so don't stress over the title!. Sunna's Struggle!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
