More Title Generators

 

 

The second title generator I looked at focused on character. Adazing is a marketing company that works with authors. It has a few free tools on its website, including a title creator. The site asks you to give your email to get the free services. Beware of follow-up emails (and plenty of them).

Adazing has some extras I didn’t find on other sites. When you click on their Book Title Creator, it has a list of options. Start on the left with the genre. Then in the center, answer some relevant questions about your main character. What is their profession, positive and negative character traits, goal, conflict? (Hmmm, sounds a little like Donna Dixon’s Goal Motivation and Conflict.) These are absolutely things to know about your character. It also asks about setting.

Plug in each answer and hit generate titles. It will generate a list of about ten titles. Click the heart to save anyone you like. This wasn’t working for me on Chrome. But you can copy and paste them. Don’t love any of them? Hit the Generate More Titles button and get a new list. Scroll down further to get some tips on creating fantastic titles.

The site also has more free things for authors (click the button on the top). We won’t jump into them today but check out their free templates for mockups and trailers as well as logos and bookmarks. There’s an entire list of free items on the site.

 

My third title generator was more elementary but the best so far. It comes from a fantasy name generator site. It has tons of resources to generate character and place names for all kinds of books (and D&D campaigns). The site is bursting with generators for naming whatever you might need.

The title generator allows you to select your genre. Sometimes, the titles will be a little grammatically incorrect, but you can copy/paste and edit. Don’t like your first list? Hit the Get Names button again. On the book title page, there are two check boxes at the bottom. I could not get any browser (Chrome, Firefox, or Edge) to show me what those boxes say. But they change your list if you check them.

I mentioned there are other generators on the site. The Fantasy and Folklore menu includes 105 different name generators for creatures, weres, hybrid, monsters, occupations, and more. The Real Names menu has well over 100 ethnic name generators. The Places and Locations menu has 105 setting spots to name. And these are just a few of the options on the top menu.

On other name generators, the boxes to add more details say Negative traits, Gender-neutral names, English names, or whatever goes with your category.

With this site, you’ll never need to think up names for anything for your book on your own again!
