If people want to start gathering names for incidental characters, but can't think of enough middle class American/ancient greek/sixteenth century irish/whatever names, they can post here for suggestions.

For example, if anyone would like to help my extreme name-related incompetence, what is the most classic ninteenth-century-esque English uppercrust name you can think of? (first, last, both, whatever) I'd be immensely grateful for anything you can think up, as I try to pick names to really fit certain characters.

Nome

Susan, Elaine, Gillian... *names her friend's mum's names wink.gif* They're all I can think of, really. :/ Any good?

I've got my christian names sorted out -- it'll probably end up being Lorna and Will. Although in saying that, so far there's been Lora, Adam, Roy, and Richard. So... yeah. laugh.gif

But does anyone have a good surname generator, or something of the sort? I'm awful with 'em. ><
