How to choose ancient Greek names for your characters
Keep characters distinct
Sokrates and Theodoros differ from the first syllable. Choose different beginnings for characters who often share a scene.
Place your character in the story
Note your character’s city and time period beside their name. For historical fiction, these details help you develop their relationships and role.
Try the name in dialogue
Try Kleopatra in a line of dialogue, then in a sentence of narration. Use the same spelling on your character sheet and in the story.
