Names

Has anyone but me noticed that the leading characters usually have the same names.

The male characters usually have the name "John"

The female characters usually have the name "Sarah"

I checked John and 58 stories include that name.

The name 'Jim' of my original main character is actually to honor the best character in the universe: JAMES TIBERIUS KIRK. I'm not kidding!

The name 'Sarah' is actually the name of a girl I wanted to date in high school, asked out and got rejected. I'm so nailing her now (sinister laugh)!

But yeah, I agree with your conclusions. I am usually good with generating names, not necessarily original. There are 'Johns' and 'Billys' more than there are 'Maximilians'; same thing for girl names. I liked 'Kamara'; I thought that has a nice ring to it.
