A really good name for a character in fiction is a marvellous thing. Some very good writers just don't have the naming facility, while others, perhaps less talented in some respects, have a great knack for it. In alphabetical order, here are fifteen of my favorite names from fiction of the fantastic (and one comic book series)...Or at least there a sampling of those favorites I can recall at the moment. How many do you recognize?
