#Book titles

[unboundprompts]

Could you do book titles for a story where the main characters are having fun while the world(literally or metaphorically) burns around them?

Titles for the Juxtaposition of Fun and Chaos in a World on Fire

Fire and Foolishness

Laughing in the Ashes

I'm working on a new project

The title is somehow the trickiest bit, I've been calling it "Tale of the Knight and the Wizard" but that seems a bit wordy to me

So, tumblr, do what you do best and vote on some nonsense:

May I ask you How to come up with a name for your comic book when nothing useful comes to mind. 😞

This is a good question, I’m not a professional by any means, but I’ve managed to accumulate a good amount of knowledge from having my own trouble with this

This is a very subjective choice, some people choose to name it after their main character, see BBC’s Sherlock or Enola Holmes.

Some do that but add another bit that either describes the story or the side characters, see Percy Jackson and the Olympians or Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure.

Some are named after the main group, see Animorphs or The Avengers

Some are a title that hints at the main character, see Monkie Kid, The Great Mouse Detective or God of War

Some hint at what they’re doing, see my title, The 14 Year Journey

Some are eye catching and have you wanting answers on what the story is about, see Good Omens or Disco Elysium

And some are statements that speaks to the story itself, see Our Flag Means death

It really depends on that you as an author want to tell, what the tone of your story is, and what expectations you want to set for your readers with the tone of your title

Don’t be afraid to experiment and ask the people around you for opinions on what you’ve come up with. Whole at the end of the day it’s your story, sometimes asking other people’s opinions can get you a good perspective on your work. You got this!

Stella's opinion on all the German Ranger's Apprentice book titles (Of the main series)

Alright, here it is. I will follow the same pattern throughout the whole thing, so you better know it before hand: Book x - English title - German title - (The translation) - opinion - rating (I'm not gonna rate literal translations) Also, I talk a lot also about the English titles, but the rating is only for the German ones.

Book 1 - The ruins of Gorlan - Die Ruinen von Gorlan - literal translation

Book 2 - The Burning Bridge - Die brennende Brücke - again, literally translated

Book 3 - Icebound land - Der eiserne Ritter - (The iron knight) - out of all the translations, this is the one that I understand the least, like, ??? Did they just call it after the book cover? There's little to no mention of iron in the German book, so. why. would. they. call. it. that. - 1/10

Book 4 - Oakleaf Bearers - Der Angriff der Temujai-Reiter - (The attack of the Temujai-horsemen) - This is just a very German translation, I think. Just straight to the point, long, no mystery, just what's happening. Also, it's been a while since I read that book, so I don't quite get the English title. Is it a reference to how the book ends? Anyway, a little less germanificated would've been nice, but a valid translation. - 8/10

Book 5 - The sorcerer of the north - Der Krieger der Nacht - (The warrior of the night) - there's not much to say here other than I just personally prefer the German one. Both titles are fitting, and I think Krieger der Nacht has the better ring to it. Might be because I'm german - 10/10

Book 6 - The siege of Macindaw - Die Belagerung - (The siege) - Almost a literal translation, so I'm not gonna rate. But it's rather funny to me that for once, the English title is longer.

Book 7 - Erak's ransom - Der Gefangene des Wüstenvolkes - (The prisoner of the desert-people) - Notice how these two titles are together a bit of a spoiler for the book, 's kinda fun. Both titles fit though, but I suppose the English is better, merely because Erak is a known and liked character at that point, so I think this title gains more attention/curiosity. - 7.5/10

Book 8 - The kings of Clonmel - Die Befreiung von Hibernia - (The liberation of Hibernia) - Not a fitting translation. If I remember correctly, it's mostly just Clonmel they 'free' from the cult, but let's be honest, this is not the main focus of the book. Halt's backstory is. - 3/10

Book 9 - Halt's peril - Der große Heiler - (The grand healer) - While I do stan some Malcolm recogition, he is not the focus of the book. Again, it's Halt and Will kind of panicking about it. I'm starting to wonder if the translators don't like Halt. - 5/10

Book 10 - The emperor of Nihon-Ja - Die Schwertkämpfer von Nihon-Ja - (The swordsmen of Nihon-Ja) - Both titles kind of fit, but the English one is just a little more on point. The book is about keeping Shigeru emperor, not about the black bear learning some sick moves. But both are related to war, so I'd say it's more fitting than book 8 and 9, but that's not too difficult - 6/10

Book 11 - The lost stories - Die Legenden des Königreichs - (The legends of the kingdom) - Well, we just get a few stories out from a box. They're not legends. But the German title sounds far more epic and does do justice to the stories a little better, so I still like - 10/10

So. There you have it. I rated all the books of the English main series. Why do I say English? Glad you asked. It's because the German translators decided that sequals are for the weak and added the whole of RR onto the main series.

Anyway, hope you enjoyed!

[dougielombax]

I wonder what the longest book title in the world is.

It probably depends on the language.

Which doesn’t help things.

Still.

Hey everyone! So uh— like I said yesterday that my friend (@sy3ra) and I have a plan to write a book using our fandom OCs (which is The Sandman, yeah 😓)

I would like to ask for your help in choosing book titles since we couldn't decide one because my friend said that all the titles are too beautiful (I literally burned the whole ass kitchen/J)

+ except for the last one, that was my other friend's suggestion teehee :33

EDIT: guys, i forgot to mention that our book itself is more like highschool romance (and the settings is not in the realm of Morpheus anyways/J 😭)

EDIT #2: okay nvm, we've already chose a title and we're really being indecisive, my bad T__T
