          It's very important to know what to name your characters. Because it's very trendy nowadays, you'll learn in this chapter how to create a "unique" name that will join the ranks of the great, like Katniss, Peeta, Haymitch...ahem. Let's continue.

METHOD ONE
This is the most simple. All you have to do is take an everyday object or word and that's it. Adding some minor changes is okay.
Example: Aspen (a tree)

METHOD TWO
Here you have to take a name and tweak the spelling. This is very common nowadays. Tweaking an object's spelling is good too.
Example: Laurance (Laurence)

METHOD THREE
Mash syllables. As long as it rolls off the tongue, it will work.
Example: Annabeth

Of course, normal names are acceptable too. But they have to be cool normal names, like Harry. No Gilberts or Hildas.
