I like Ahonan, everyone knows your evil twin has to be your name backwards, and have a mustache. Last edited by TheShinySword; 2010-04-17 at 11:50. |

Names, names, names.... Gyousei? Taikyo? I can probably come up with something better if I know what you're going to do with her origins. |

True. (I'll be honest, though--"evil twin" definitely makes me think "humor" more than "serious plotline"; one of those things where even though the character takes herself seriously (and *is* serious), the events that happen around her keep nerfing the drama. Actually, kind of like Einhart, if you think about it. )

Spoiler for this:
Looks like Nanoha isn't the only one with an old timey evil twin. Also I'm not sure why the name can only be Japanese, evil Nanoha doesn't necessarily have to be Japanese, does she? It's hard to make puns in a language you're not familiar with. That's why I think Evil Nanoha should be named Jane, or alternatively Jill. |

Also...since I'm sure there will be a time where nothing is considered "original" anymore (possibly), I've been wondering...why do writers or any creative person sometimes repeat re-occurring themes? What do you guys think? The reason why I brought this up is that there are times I come up with strange names that would almost have no meaning or sense whatsoever, yet I feel that it's sometimes necessary to try and create some diversity. (Not an easy thing to do as I'm sure most of you have already known). |

Of course there are series that have really unique names you never hear used by anyone else, most notably Gundam. Char Aznable? Garrod Ran? Gym Ghingnham? Athrun Zala? Really, I wonder where the creators come up with some of these Well, in terms of Nanoha fanfiction, since the setting has moved to Mid Childa the rule of thumb is to use car names for OCs. People like me who know nothing about cars usually choose from more well known models and companies. Quote:

Names can be the most difficult thing for some writers, and sometimes for them picking a common name is already a feat.
For Nanoha... well, car names is a theme. But even there you can be creative. For example, one of my own Nanoha characters, a lightning user, is called Tesla. This is both the Tesla as in 'Tesla coil' as well as the Tesla Roadster. A double wink to both her lightning powers and a car. |
