Character names

Developing character names an assigning them to final characters:
First ideas:


Evelyn Harold
James Harold
Bud White
Sarah Jones
Bethany Lane
Jack Chandler
David Chandler
Harry White
Harry Cooper
Ben Cooper
Sarah Cooper
Sarah Smith
Final ideasWomen 1 (wife) = Evelyn Harold


Women 2 (waitress) = Sarah Jones


Man 1 (detective) = Jack Chandler


Man 2 (husband) = James Harold


Man 3 (policeman) = Harry White
We thought very carefully about what names to assign each character, as you can see we first thought of lots of names that we thought would suit our genre, time period and also the characters. We then discussed each character and choose a name that we thought was best suited. Whilst choosing the names we thought about how the name would depict the characters as often we wanted this to give the different characters portrayals for example the wife needed to have a higher class name than the waitress and the detective needed a strong and powerful name to relate to his character.
