Catpone Cerberus

Nowadays the hardest part of drawing is coming up with names for the characters, I already have so many, and unlike with pony characters, I can't just give names that directly describe things about them. Just for an idea of the process, my latest character, Leaina, is a direct result of me not deciding. 

My original plan was to somehow use the Finnish word for Bat in the name, as bat is clearly the main species she's based on, and that led me to Lea (the Finnish word is "Lepakko"), but that was boring and generic, and I couldn't stop thinking about princess Leia. Then I saw the name Ina, which sounded nice to me, but didn't really do it for me, so I ended up combining the two.

Sometimes I straight up use name generators, or some kind of Translators for fictional languages like Dragonic language. 

Nowadays I also often take a word that describes something about the character, and modify it to sound like a name, Vendi is a good example of this, as her name comes directly from Wendigo, there's also Asildae, which is simply the word Asilidae with one letter missing, that word being the Scientific name for Robber flies, which implies to the true nature of that character. (Spoilers )  

There are then of course the pronoun ghosts, whose names are just Finnish words  

All this to say, I have no idea what to name my next characters; They will probably have their nicknames/self-invented names as their names (like Flint) due to their story, but as I have been drawing them, no ideas have come to my mind. it doesn't really help that I haven't pinpointed their personality fully either, the only thing I know for sure being that like most of my latest characters, they are less than entirely sane. 

The picture in its WIP form really gives me "You wake up tied up in a chair in a dark room" kind of vibe, but I have no idea yet why they would do that
