Title: Ideas for a writer pen name
Post by: Terry B on May 30, 2003, 01:43:28
How about "Timeless". No, that's not a pen name.

Try Elyssa Grand, or Elisabeth Night. [8D]

Ursala Canright aka U. Canright
Penny Hopper
Nicole Change
Alice Pfelinous  (Feline/us) - Which would be an Alice in Wonderland referance (Alice and the purple feline) and also an AP referance.

timeless,

If you play around with this website, you might come up with something that you like. It is a "common name generator".

http://www.aellalei.com/resources/common.html

The website states: "Sometimes coming up with names for characters can be difficult. The common name generator generates thousands of names that can be used in fiction, or even as a pen name."

They also have a link to an "exotic name generator" and other resources for writers:

My analytical brain is incapable of coughing up it's own suggestion however.

Very best,

Dahlia Gillespie(my respect to whoever knows where I got this name from).

Sylvie Foncé(Sounds french, surname means "dark". Or Elyssa Foncé)

Samara Vaughan(I have no idea. Sounded unique.)

I was just reviewing some old topics and I saw this one.

So Timeless did you ever figure out what pen name you were going to use?

Dear David,

I am still very open to suggestions but I do have one I am favoring right now.  

Best Regards,

I couldn't think of anymore.  I was just wondering if you had found one yet.

As you know many authors do not use their real name.  I am interested in ideas for a writing pen name for preteen to teen fantasy books.  It can be wacky, cool or very sane.  Have fun -- consider this a  brainstorming session. I'm looking forward to hearing your ideas.  

Oh! Forgot to mention for those that do not know I am female -- so no James Tiberius Kirk names.

Many thanks,
timeless
