![]() Men supposedly act like men and women supposedly act like women, but this does not always have to be the case. The date of birth is also very important if you want their personality shaped by their zodiac sign. This can influence the back story of a grown-up character, especially if time-dependent stuff like spring, fall, drought, and monsoon season are important. ![]() This is just a parallel to the age category, but the earliest months of a person's life reverberate through the years, even if the character cannot remember them. People also change over time, so you have to ask yourself "What stage in life, physically and mentally, is my character?" ![]() A young character has a different point of view on life and all its wonders in comparison to someone with more years under their belt. There is no perfect age: the young want to be old, the old want to be young, and no one wants to be in-between. Another thing I like to consider is the meaning of the name the meaning of your character's name can, again, fit the personality or it can fit a theme or motif you want to build. These three factors can provide a good base for choosing a good name for your character. One of the things you must consider as a writer is how appropriate a name is for the person's age, gender, and nationality/race/species. The name of the character can set the tone for his/her personality in the story.
