What's in a name?

The devil is in the details.  So true.  I always get bogged down in the little things.  Little things like character names/origins/etc.  I'm working on something right now and it's hard to get into because I don't like the protagonist's name.  I don't have a handle on who she is.  I just happen to know a few things that are going to happen to her.

I feel a bit like a psychic.  I can see fragments of her future without the full picture.  I wonder if it is like this for everyone who tries to write. 

I did not expect to be as rusty as I am about all of this.  I'm the Tin Man begging for oil and a very busy Dorothy trying to apply it at any opportunity.  

I am enjoying playing with words.  It is hard and frustrating but sublimely enjoyable.
