Were did you get your sim names from?

I got a Baby Names book and it also has surnames so I use that or I'll use a Baby names website or ones that I know and like :)

I make up a lot of my names, or I take names I like and change them a little. I also like to use ethnic names a lot, and sometimes old-fashioned names. I just love making up names, lol.

The phone book is also a great source of material! I sometimes use the credits in a movie too, there's some pretty interesting names there, even just the crew.

I don't mind having several with the same name. People in real life can have the same first name, so it's not a big deal for me.
There are different groups of names I use depending on what the sim's initial role is. I have just "normal" type sims and give them names that are average. I may have themed names, e.g. for many of the mafia sims - they have Italian names. I also can make names based on a specific characteristic in the sim or a specific trait. I also like making references and using word play with names. I often have themed last names and "normal" first names - e.g. Peter Pound is the owner of the pound; his wife is Ezra Pound (kinda "normal" and word play with the author).
