Another vampire name generator

I found a vampire name generator on the web that may suit my visitors' needs more than one I previously attached to the blog. You'll need to head over to the following site:

Here are my personal results:

The Great Archives determine you to have gone by the identity:
Marion Tussaud

Known in some parts of the world as:
Wraith of Gypsies

The Great Archives Record:
A traveller of travellers, of good humour but dangerous.

Hmm...of good humor, but dangerous. Interesting. I have a visit with the in-laws coming up this weekend. If my FIL gets out of line, let's hope my Marion Tussaud side doesn't appear. ;-)

I will be called Sultana of Moldovia, known in some parts of the world as Haunt of the Crows. I suppose it's more original than lucien, victor, devlin, or kane, but I still think it's lacking for a good romance heroine name. ;)

Ciara,

I recommend looking up sample baby names from other countries. If your vampire is from a specific country, you can start there. If she's from your own country, foreign names can still conjure up the right feel for what you're looking for. I used German name dictionaries for one of my vampires who hailed from there.

I realize I should add one more thing about naming vampires--how old are the vampires you're naming? Make sure you're picking a name that was around during that time period. For example, Tyler from the 1700s probably isn't going to come across as convincing unless it's Mr. Tyler.
