From the "Creating a fursona" advice thread:
Names
Choosing a name for your fursona can be one of the most difficult things to do in the process. Some people use their real names, rearrangement of the letters in their names, nicknames, a name of someone they know or once knew, their online alias, a name of character in a book or movie, a name of a celebrity, or just pick a brand new name.
When choosing a new name, there are many things you can consider. Meaning, syllables, sounds, gender, and nationality are all parts of finding the right name for you. Baby name websites can be extremely useful, as you can search for names by meaning, nationality, and/or gender. Googling lists of "Top 100 baby/boy/girl names" or "Top 100 pet names" can give you a good place to start looking if you don't have anything in particular in mind. If you like a particular "sound" in a name, looking at lists of names that start with certain letters might be more helpful for you.
Your fursona's name doesn't even have to be a traditional "name", either. Think about nouns or objects that relate to your life and/or interests. Someone into steampunk could be named "Gear", or someone who's into Halloween could be named "Pumpkin" or "Spook." Things like that.
