I am having a total brain fart today...
I need help figuring out the name of the literary device where the author intentionally names characters whose name itself evokes a certain connotation...mainly used for extra emphasis with colorful characters. examples: Darth Vader (sounds kinda like dark invader...both of which are kinda dastardly/evil) Han Solo (solo...lone wolf type) does anyone know what the hell I am talking about? |

Darth Vader (sounds kinda like dark invader...both of which are kinda dastardly/evil) Han Solo (solo...lone wolf type) i guess i never really thought about it like that until now... also, han means one (in korean) just like solo means one/alone...weird. -------------------- ![]() |
