If I don't already kind of have a name in mind for a character (L'yhta was already in my mind, as were Aurelie and Elsbeth), I'll usually flip through the random generator until I see a name, or a part of a name, where I get a "hey, that looks neat" feeling. Then I'll flip through some more until I get a flash of, "Aha! This is the name I want!" That's how I named all of my retainers, for instance. I try to avoid overthinking names and just go with my gut feeling. If my character decides he or she isn't fond of their name in the future, that's just a potential source of RP.
