Bart Stark | 10 comments I am in the process of writing the second novel in the Wolves at the Gate series and need names for minor WWII era American, German and Japanese characters. Any suggestions? (Yes, you can offer your own name.)

Thanks!

Russell Carroll | 13 comments I love this website. https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/

Yes, it says "fantasy" name generator, but there is a drop down for "real" names where you can ask for German, American or Japanese names. Here are a few it spit out.

Japanese: Shishido Takeshi, Anno Doi, Yoshioka Chizuru
German: Johann Kellermann, Adam Gräbner, Gustav Abs, Marina Eisner
American: Brandon Kennedy, Riley Hunt, Madeleine Dawson
