- I depsise character names that are too unusual and just... stupid, and names that are way too plain. It puts me off and I leave the story. I think I like it right in the middle: meaningful with a good ring to it, not too weird or too boring.
See the thing with names is, they usually have personalities attached to them. Ashley's mean andinda slutty. Stephanie's a bit of a follower. Taylor is sweet and fun and usually doesn't get too bothered about labels.
Katrina is pretty. Gertrude's a beast. Jake's kinda hot, maybe has razor stubble and grey eyes. Harold is a nerd. Susan is a hard worker and cares about people.
Is it just me that has these...name prejudices?
