Is there a way to make a form field or model field either a foreign key reference or allow the user to fill in something themselves? I'm making a fixed assets app and each fixed asset has an owner field, which I would like to assign to an app user if possible, and if not possible be able to fill in a name myself.

Yes. Make the ForeignKey in the model null=True and blank=True so it can exist all alone. Then you can limit_choices_to whatever whatever suits your requirements ...
