Does the name of a character matter?
From a person who is both an avid reader of fiction and an avid watcher of movies the answer is yes, and no.Major character names are important, minor characters especially ones you meet only once or twice and do not significantly affect the storyline much less so. If a particular cultural template is used then the name must follow that template’s rules unless there is a storyline reason for it to deviate. Names need not be meaningful, but they cannot distract from the storyline by not fitting.Interestingly, this still applies where the Name is in a foreign language. I have seen stories that were strewn with names that were unpronounceable even within the grammatical rules of a crafted language. Do this too much and nobody will want to read your stories.tl;dr If you want your reader to relate to your characters, Yes, Names Matter
How do I create good character names?
Well.... you can take a page from a master... J.R.R Tolkien.This might sound... involved, but it could pay off in big ways.Create your own language. Keep track of it... like a dictionary excel file. Then, you can base names on words you've created. I mean, the origin of the last name Cooper... someone who makes barrels. How about Baker... I wonder what that family did way back when. I know that sounds simplistic...... but if your characters come from a harsh community, almost barbaric on the frontier, they might have a harsh language. Something guttural... like Klingon or German. Many hard consonants, K's and such. From this hard language, you can then develop names that sound like your fictional words.Garen Tokaan, from the Tokaari clan, was raised to be the fourth generation of Tokaaris farmer in his district. He was proud of his father, Gu'Klar and the farm he had helped build over the years.
