Character Naming

As an Author naming your Character is an important step right after coming up with the plot. I am here to help you choose the right character name for you and your story.

Make sure your character name is Genre Appropriate. Make sure if it's a Historical Fiction novel or takes place in a real time period that the name was used then. Or if it's a fictionalized place then you can be as creative as you wish.

Just have fun with naming your character. It is after all your story.

Titania

Meaning: (Of the Titan’s, Giant, Perhaps based on Latin Titanus meaning “Of the Titan’s”. This name was (First?) used by Shakespeare in his comedy ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ (1595) Where it is the name of the Queen of the Fairies. This is also a moon of Uranus, named after the Shakespearean Character. Mythology: The Titan’s were a race of Giants.)

Origin: (Greek, Literature)

Pronunciation: (tie-TAYN-yə (English), tə-TAYN-yə (English), tə-THAN-yə (English)

Gender: Female

I love going to this Medieval / Fantasy Wedding Gowns site I found years ago. I am not married or even planning to right now but I went there to get ideas for some of my characters who lived in the Medieval like era. The designer is in the UK and her gowns are briliant. They are beautiful and so well done. Anyway Titania is the name of one of her gowns. I really liked the name and a few others I will add later. The Titania gown on the site is my favorite. The name too might be used by me in a novel as I love the menaings.

I am going to add the website below just so you can check it out if you like.

I try to have the most accurate Meanings, Origin and Pronunciations for the names on this blog. It is best though to do research into the names you decide to use for your characters as there can be errors on my blog. Or meanings, origins, and pronunciations I have not seen thus not been able to add to this blog.





Try some of the leading Baby Name Sites and Baby Name or Character Naming books as well.
