Alright, so here is my basic lay out of my idea. It is set in the medevail period. A boy, about 17, runs into an old man in the market place, the man then slips him a note that says ‘find the Raven’, tells the boy that the time has come, and then is shot by the palace guards. With his final breath he tells the boy to run. Running from the guards, he hides in a small pub where he meets a girl. Who then, rather harshly, I might add, throws him outside and demands to know why he was running, and if he was bringing the guards after her. Terrified, he shows her the note and tells her everything. Well, the girl turns out to be the Raven, a renown thief and bounty hunter. There is a lot more stuff that happens, but the basic of the plot is that there are seven(maybe more, not sure yet) magical blades hidden all around their world that are made out of precious gems, and when put together, the blades can cause unspeakable evil, or great acts of good, depending on the heart of the holder. On the main villian, the tyrant king, is after the heads of the Raven and the boy, but soon learns that he needs the boy to unlock the secrets of the Blades.
Yeah..thats all I really have so far, this idea has been in my head FOREVER!
Now, the people I need names for are:
The Raven
The old man
The boy
and the King (needs to be a kick butt villian name!)
Scorpio.

Its alright, but who was the old man and why did he choose that particular boy to give the note?
The Raven – you could just call her Raven, I’ve always loved that name 😛 Lia, Crystal, Night, Sila, Reina… can’t really think of any good ones, sorry ;P
old man – You could give a bird name as a ‘nickname’ or ‘use name’ – like Wren or something. Hmm Alrin? Bran?
the boy – Brin, Perre… ammm.
the King – Hadrian, Adrian, Veran, Kavar, Davon (all names I used recently :P)
You can make “evil” bad guy names by putting together harsher syllables, like k or v sounds :D.
