just to clarify ...
How old are these characters? I mean, someone that's fifty years old in the sixties would likely have a different name from someone born in the sixties.Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!

Good point…the characters are going to be around 16-21. For now I’m just trying to pick names that were popular in each decade and from there I’ll figure out which character gets which name (for example, Chester peaked in the late 10s/early 20s so maybe the character set in the 40s will be named that…idk, I’ll figure it out lol.
