Technically, through intellectual rights, we can't give you names, or else we'll be obliged to have a certain percentage of the revenue.

However, I can give advice. Use foreign, exotic, dead languages to make names. For example, damhan means deer in Irish, so
you could make a spry character have an anglicized version of that.

babynamesworld.com
it's amazing! it tells you the name, origin, meaning, and popularity (so you dont pick overused names)
i write books (at least in my head) and that's where i go
Now and then I announce "I know you're listening" to empty rooms. If I'm wrong, no one knows. And if I'm right, maybe i just freaked the hell out of some secret organization. It's basically Paschal's wager for the paranoid prankster.

Or you could move some letters from human names and get a new name
Like so:

Tyler = Rytel or maybe Tyrel

I'm writing a story, so I can relate. Good luck!

Juranas is a good name.

How about something completely obscure and different like...
Yalke
Wirkus
Banov
Xalvie
Polygmay
Dalfy
Quarx
Verdim
Galmia
or even
Farlu.
Just some stuff I came up with off the top of my head. It's is your mission to decide how to pronounce them, that is, if you accept this mission.

I found a program called Name Maker. You can get some pretty interesting names from it.

I would say Tatsu or Long. Tatsu is Japanese for dragon, and long is chinese for, well you guessed it, dragon.

i see about 19 days in between the last post and new post. in my mind i find that it is only half dead. dying, but can still be brought back to life by the powers of the topic healers and saviors.
If you were to juggle a lion, and a house cat, the end result would look something like a tattered chunk of red fabric. The cat would scratch anything within reach, and the lion would just eat you. The lesson to learn? Make sure you eat your spinach.

I see six days between those posts. And 15 days between the ones before. It did not die on the 31st of October. You either need your eyes testing or your monitor (or computer) replacing.
