Looking for astronaut names

[Shark4558]

I've been trying to create a name for astronauts for a story that I have in mind, but the game does not help with the names given, and also the only names that I liked, are from astronauts of the long-term laythe mission by brotoro but I do not want to copy those names, so somebody can suggest me some names? I need seven names.

Someone linked an awesome name generator but I can't remember where I saw it now...

It would help to have some context. When I'm making up characters/personalities, usually I try to give a name that suits.

Actually, no, but that doesn't mean it's not a good one

I need seven names.

That's a no brainer:

Sneezy, Grumpy, Bashful, Happy, Dopey, Sleepy, and Thorin Oakenshield.

I bet it took you a minute to remember them all

How about Father, Mother, Maiden, Crone, Warrior, Smith and Stranger?

Notice the edit? I originally had Grumpy twice.

thanks for the link, it seems useful, but even so, I should think through the personality of the astronauts, it never hurts to think about all the details in advance, I'll see what I do on this.thanks for helping!

Roger Kerman - We have clearance, Clarence.

Clarence Kerman - Roger, Roger. What's our vector, Victor?

Victor Kerman - ?

In homage to the movie Airplane http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080339/quotes (called Flying High here in Australia) I use these 3 as my second crew.

KSP seems to use a random generator based on the name as a seed to assign a specialization, and these three conveniently work out to be one of each - from memory they are...

Victor Kerman - Pilot

Clarence Kerman - Engineer

Roger Kerman - Scientist

I recently asked for "volunteer" astronauts on one of the major KSP facebook groups and I had literally dozens of sign ups within the hour!

I renamed the majority of my Career crew to the volunteers and this gave me enough motivation to reactivate my career save and do nice things in it

Pretty much everyone except for the fantastic four stock Kerbals (Jeb Bill Bob Val) are going to be renamed to custom ones. Pity we can't change profession separately from the name.. (Jobs are assigned by the hash of the name).
