Most. Useful. Thing. Ever.
I don't know about you guys, but I have a heck of a time coming up with names. Name generators to the rescue! These ones are for both regular type names (complete with generated addresses and SIN numbers) and fantasy names appropriate for offworld characters. There's even an option for names with apostrophes, a percentage of which are good for Jaffa! Whew! I needed that! Names are the hardest thing to come up with after awesome last lines. ;)

Thanks: A big thank you to Name Generators.

  If you have trouble coming with planet designations (P3X-yadda), I wrote a generator (http://www.cleothemuse.net/toys/addressGenerator.php) for those. Only works with IE at the moment, but I'm in the process of re-writing it to add more features and make it cross-platform compatible.

    Thanks for the link! I find them easier than names, but our brains work in patterns, especially numerically, so I find I'm repetitive in my choices, or they turn out to be actual show designations. That should really be useful, too. Does it automatically avoid in-show designations, or does one need to check for that?

      It doesn't yet, but that's one of the things I'm working on in the new version. Still, the odds of getting one EXACTLY like a canon address are pretty "astronomical" :D
