What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

So what is in a name? Take a tale of two kitties for example. Two sisters to be exact. They were born on the same day, to the same mom and pop, they have the same odd coloring, the same polydactly feet, but the get very different reactions at the vets....
Lover Girl (Pictured) and Bloodletter
Apt names as I am currently bleeding. Hopefully the vet is used to crazed wild barn cats and was not lulled into complacency by her sister today.
A book also needs a name. I gave my manuscript a good name and was mildly surprised when the publisher requested three alternate titles just in case someone had already used that name. Well, I provided the names but we ended up going with "Dying Embers" after all.
Hopefully there are lots of sales in that name.
