Yes, I am having naming issues again.  The names are stupid, feel to offer suggestions.

you know, the names in the new star wars drive me crazy. except for Rey, whom I can remember, they all seem forced and interchangeable to me. I spent about 3/4s of the movie trying to understand the difference between the new speed pilot Poe and Kylo Ren. I mean, Poe and Kylo and Rey and Ren? Surely they could have done better with names.

All that to say that I think you should not be PC and ambiguous in your naming. Let ethnicity, gender or lack of it, age or political preference or whatever all hang out. The characters will adjust acccordingly.

Ah Mojo, again you are giving my brain too much credit.

But the problem is, only two of them are clearly people you know?
Maybe three....Harris, Nina & (now) Rodrigo.
The others are just kind of there.....okay Abe has a point.
but the others are a way to distinguish from the earlier "tallest", "leader", "guy who externalized his interior monologue", and other guy because I think I said 6 people in the room with Harris.

I have no idea what these people look like. Its just words come, or a scene shows up and I just type it out, editing a little when the pictures in my head aren't clear.
