I’m writing a series of short mystery stories and need distinctive detective names to make each character stand out. It’s been harder than expected to find names that feel authentic.
I found detective names and it looks like it could be a great help. I’m curious if anyone has experience using that site or other methods for creating detective names that are both creative and believable. Any ideas or shared lists would be a huge help!
The site you mentioned, detective names, is a fantastic resource because it offers a variety of creative and believable options. In addition, I’ve found it helpful to draw inspiration from classic fictional detectives or real-life investigators, then tweak the names to make them unique. You can also try random name generators or mix and match first and last names from different cultures.
