[stylist] Character name changes

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

Shelly,

I don't often change names, but this is totally up to the person. Sometimes,
I use a place holder name until I figure out what I want to name a
character, and this is totally acceptable. If you want to change a name, or
all names, there's nothing wrong with that. Question, any specific reason
why you want to change the nae, especially  in the finished draft?

Bridgit

OK guys here is my first Writers question to the current list. So I am about
to self publish a novel and I want to know something. I don't want to know
if I should do this or not because I've pretty much decided I'm changing the
name of my protagonist. We've gone through to name changes and now after
rewriting the book and thinking about it I've decided that I'm choosing a
third name. So, how many times do you change the name of your characters
