It's Friday. Let's start a fun character's names thread.

I'll go first.

I've always thought Yo Yo Ma should have an annual Mothers Day concert and call it, "Yo MaMa." In fact, I wrote it into one of my scripts, so it's copyrighted...!!! :-)

I LOVE character names! They're an inside way of jazzing up a script so there are jokes between just you and the reader. Unless, of course, you slip up and write the full name into the script. I only do it for comedies. I have one character named "Charlotte Webb."
And years ago, on IRC, two of the main "handles" I used were Sarah Bellum and Phyllis Steen. Then somebody caught onto Sarah Bellum, and suddenly I couldn't use it anymore because a bunch of people stole it!

Here are some of my other favorites, some of which I stole from The Car Guys.
Shanda Lear
Kaye Serrah
Lois Bidder
Linus Scrimmage
Shun
April Lynne Parrus
Al Legori
Warren Peace
Barbara Seville
Rick Shaw
Jean Poole
Dewey Haffta
Obie Quiet
And last, but not least...
