I'm writing a short sci-fi story and I want a somewhat clever name. I think I might focus on genetic engineering or something like that if it matters... so I was thinking of something like Gene Etizist. Other ideas, thoughts, anything

btw: this is something I have to do for a class, not something I'm just doing in my spare time :p

i thought you said clever, not downright corny?

Why do you think I'm here asking... as I can't come up with anything better right now. It was just an example of what I was going for.

so you're going for a name that is some kind of joke in of itself, or looking for a real name? if that's the case, profession wouldn't matter :p

look at the KOTOR character maker, you can use that to generate names that sounds sci-fi-ish and is typically unisex.
