Welcome Doris! If he's anything like me he has a few baby name books hanging around. Or a phone book. Or an app called Lists for Writers.
Can't recall either, but something about when he hears strange or different names he writes them down for possible use.....Hiya Doris!....

Sorry, new to this, probably doing it wrong, lol
Thank you for all the replies and welcomes. Been a fan for the longest time. My favorite still is Salem's Lot.
Welcome, Doris! 'Salem's Lot was the very first King book I ever read (way back in the 70's!) and will always be my favorite, too! Ps- Are you related to Darrin, Samantha or Tabitha?
Hiya Dorris! Welcome to the board! Wanna Balloon? They Float!
