That said, name your book after an awesome sentence someone says midway through.
Generally titles encompass the main focus of the story, my little mess around one (It's a full book but its just for fun) Is called Picture Perfect about what I'd like my life to be. i.e Picture Perfect.
But taking a rough guess... based on what you have said.
The most Unlikely of Friends (The trolls and Orcs being good guys?)
The rest I sort of need a better synopsis, is there a key location? An item of import? Name it not that exactly but similar.

If you haven't already written the thing (or at least a significant portion of it), it's probably best to do that first. A title would come in due time.
I'm writing a book.thepj said:
Yes, it may seem crazy, but I might as well give it a go. I've got alot of the story, but can't come up with a good title.
It's a Fantasy/Horror novel with an emphasis on psychological horror.
The races I have are humans, elves (don't troll me for that, they're not graceful and pretty, they're pricks), orcs (not the antagonists), trolls (nor are they), and demons. Any ideas, Escapists?
-Fixed!-
The Tachtallium of Thraaaaaj : The Maddening, part 2.
Call it part two to drum up interest - people will spend ages looking for part one! Ignore the guy who was going on about made up words screwing up a book, they're awesome and he knows it!
Also, I was gonna say Faster than the Speed of Love, but I got ninja'd.

i have to say no to that one, one of the points is that there are no good guys.McCa said:
but i'll give a synopsis (critics welcome)
the whole land is teetering on the edge of total war over some small area of land that is the last officialy neutral place in the known world at this time. the nomad elves esentialy want revenge for the humans and orcs slaughtering them a couple of generaions ago. the orcish and human empires are attempting to outdo eachother and have a history of distrust and conflict. the trolls were driven back into the mountains long ago by (guess who) the orcs and humans, now they want to defend their homes amoung the highlands of the land being fought over.
Meahwhile in the far north where the human capital city is located the demons have returned from out of the depths of time with one thought after 1000 years. Revenge. as a mad new king commands the orcs and the elves and trolls refuse to listen the demon plauge threatens to sweep across the land destroying all that stand before them and striking fear into their enemies hearts with their sadistic lust for blood...
Judging by what you have written, I would call it capitalisation. Maybe spelling.
Seriously though it sounds very generic, you should work on your idea and writing your story before you get anywhere near the title. Having a title this early on will just put a constraint on your imagination.
Edit note: I would also be interested in how you have incorperated or intended to add the elements of psychological thriller and horror. What you talk about now seems just high fantasy style.

Much better. Now I have something while still rough to work with, any key points in the story that revolve around a place or an item?thepj said:
So far... "The wrong Enemy" (they refuse to acknowledge the true threat and continue on the old wars?
You're writing a book with grammar like that?
Erm... Fantasy Elf Fighters Book 1: Darkness Invades a Small Village in Parallel Universe Medieval Times

So it revolves around epic storytelling, huge wars, vast armies, Evil Leaders, minimally dressed hot elven fighter chicks and such.thepj said:
Name it Dark + (somethink)
-The Dark Times (of...(calradia:])
And if you stick with the psychological part.
-The Dark Sides (of....The mind (of ....(Some(generic))Fantasy guys))
or
The Death of (mighty hero/[insert name here])
Maybe those are too cliched, but no for something totally different:
...
No I just can't think of anything original
Aha!
-The Call of Honor.
How do you like that?
thanks.Puzzles said:
i admit that i sometimes only skim read other posts.
and we in the north call it scotland
Don't worry about a title until you've finished it, the title will probably come to you before you get to the last third of the book, if not then by the end.
