Hi Matthew In 2004, I wrote a piece on places to choose names:. http://www.usabilitynews.com/news/article1739.asp
It seems to have suffered a little from linkrot, but most of the links are still active. My basic idea was that names do suggest ages so you could pick a set of names that reflect the age of the persona. Caroline Jarrett [EMAIL PROTECTED] :I am running a persona workshop with our client partners to flesh out : some of the behavioral aspects. As part of a "fun" exercise, we would : like to have persona naming as part of the event. Normally, when I : pick names, I make up something based on my IM list, mashups of TV : characters from shows I watched recently, or something along those : lines. : : Does anyone have a process in place (or ideas) for how our group might : choose names collaboratively? : : Thanks, : : Matthew Zuckman ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
