So i like to write, but writing cant be any good without good names. So what are some common names in 40K?

I have a list of names that might help you. Most are Latinish names though, so they're probably best for Imperials/Former Imperials. Some names I made up however.

Kaglar
Cyril
Antonius
Nicanor
Elpidius
Caius
Mathew
Traianus
Heron
Theron
Felix
Basilius
Septimus
Severianus
Vibianus
Sturmovich
Horkal
Urkan
Jorath
Kharyun
Komyn
Domitan
Sarkth
Devram
Aelianus
Varin
Decimus

You can also use modern names for some more human characters, primarily Imperial Guardsmen. Like there could be Travis the Meat Shield with a flashlight, or High Commander Charles. It really depends on the name though, otherwise it might ruin the tone of yer story.
