I know! Tiffany was so cute up on stage. She kept it blessedly short. But the twitter rage afterwards was AMAZING. The sheer number of quotes with "WHO THE HELL IS GIRLS' GENERATION?" paired with raging about the contest being rigged, how they have no fans, and the racism was ridiculous. Some clever SONE came up with this.

I thought to myself, what looks like a Galka and has a great sounding name: Solomon Grundy. I was also reading The Long Halloween at the time.

My character's name generates from my real name.

Caoimhe is Irish. The correct way to pronounce it sounds just like my nickname, Keva. Weird spelling but cute. :o

You need to ask where the name of your ruler comes from?!

Lot of cool names here with just as cool backgrounds!

"Tyl Phumin"

Tyl: It's the name of a "Double Star" (meaning two stars that are relly close, like twins" alpha and beta, colors are purple and orange and are part of "Draco".
Because I like stars i was searching for hours for that name ~
Phumin: I actually fount out only after i created that name, the name already exists as "Wat Phumin", a buddhist temple in thailand.

I know. Especially yours XD. Learned so much from people's character name :D. Keep it up!

haven is my favorite word, belle means beautiful woman. so i mix'd the two words together

My first name is a Persian name derived from Sassanid kings. It was the last dynasty to rule over the Persian region before the Muslim invasion.

My last name is borrowed from the extremely brilliant and insightful Hannah Arendt. She was a political theorist that fled from Germany during World War II, eventually settling in the United States. Her work regarding the hows and whys of Totalitarianism are considered to be very important. If you've heard of the phrase, "the banality of evil," she is the one who coined it. She is, in my opinion, one of the most awesome people ever.

Ugh. Having read both The Human Condition and Origins of Totalitarianism, I have to agree she was rather smart person, but I can't really recommend the books to anyone.. They're too, erm.. boring..
