Well, this is a ritual for me. Each role-play I've joined I've always ended up asking this question: How did you come up with your character's name?
In my case, the name "Allanon" comes from the Shannara book series by Terry Brooks. Allanon is a mysterious druid and the last of his kind. I guess I picked him for inspiration because I wanted to create a manipulative enigmatic character. "Stumbling to Bethlehem" comes from the song Stumbling to Bethlehem by Patti Scialfa. (beautiful song, i highly reccommend it) I chose this name for two reasons. Reason 1: I wanted to have a tortured and repentant character for a change of pace. Reason 2: it currently sums up my faith. Aleshanee is my latest. Her name was picked purely for meaning and the way it rolled off the tongue. Aleshanee is Native American for "she always plays", a perfect name for my little omega wolf.
ok, now that I've shared, its your turn!

Well for me, Zanzibar is from a book, but I forget which one, but he is a beautiful silver mustang stallion. Kaliska is a nice name I came across while looking for names. I love it at least

Hmm well the name Astoria(my ooc name) comes from the Waldorf Astoria Towers and I liked the word and I've been there and liked it so Astoria it is.
Cornelia my charry is a name from the Girl With the Pearl Earring. I liked it and it seemed sunny and this is only the second lighty I've ever played, I'm more a neutral/dark person myself even though my rl personality is super sun-shiney. So yea Cornelia I liked it.

This is an awfully good question dearie... I'd have to say that Faded Light comes from my Allpoetry name, which I have a poem written about... give me a moment and I shall drudge it up for you...
Into the darkness where the light will fade, couldn't help but notice the shadows that cascade.
Within my mind, delve deep to find my soul, couldn't help but see that I have no control.
Within my very heart, deep into my core is a being called Faded who sometimes I abhor.
Also known as Raei, my side of dark, driving me to insanity she leads into what is stark.
Of a shattered mind, a soul so deep that the dark can't be refined into the light,
Fading, softly aglow, dispersing into eternity of the fading light below.
Shut up, it's not my best work... and it's old... -growls- But I suppose thats an explanation of it in any case!
