This is actually pretty dope advice.

Even if you're writing fiction. I mean, one of the things my sister and I do at the end of a movie is look for all the bizarre names in the credits. Some people really do have sci-fi or fantasy sounding names in reality.

If i need a name for a young person i'll hit the honors students list in a newspaper, and mix-and-match the last names to suit.
