[QUOTE="Jupiterm1, post: 2618932, member: 721901"] Australian names are like American, Canadian, and British names. In the southeast US, names lean toward French names, and the west coast towards Hispanic names. In Australia, it's not uncommon to have a some very Italian names (demographic vary by location). Some of the ones I've come across are: -Joska (male) -Tanami (female) Hamish is also a popular guys name and I have run into a Nigel. Claire, Clair, Clare, Sarah, Sara, Matt, and Jack are also popular. As for last names: Smith Bertola Sanders If you have any aboriginal characters, their last names run towards English last names or the names of things: Charles Patch Johnson Mosquito Penny If you read Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson, it will help you with the no-dialogue from the main character part.
