What's in a name?

Naming a book, or a character for that matter, is a little like naming your baby.
You love your book, and the characters you write about, creating them from nothing at all, and watch them grow as the pages turn.
So, you watch, read and listen.
How do you choose the name of your book?
Do you choose a word or a phase that accurately describes it?
Does the word or phrase even have to be related to the book?

It is a huge decision indeed, because the name of a book is part of what defines it, while the name of a character is what brings to mind someone the reader hates, or loves, or pities.
Listen for names that trigger memories of your book/character. List out the names you love. List out the names you hate.
USE THEM AS YOU SEE FIT.
That's the great thing about writing your own book, you essentially play god!

You'll notice that in this post, I've treated my readers as writers themselves. Just a bit of encouragement to any aspiring novelists reading this. =)
 I've followed almost this exact template anyway, and there's really no distinction.
