What's a good story title for a short story I had to write for class?
Q: It's a romance where the girl and guy fall in love in 1920's Paris (they're both from England) and she dumps her fiancé for him (cheesy, I know, but I didn't want to write in in the first place so...)============================================
Best Answer: "The 'Paris Effect'" or "The Effect of Paris on the English Soul"
The title should come out of the events of the story.
The man and woman are English. I assume the woman's fiance is English too. Were the woman and fiance in Paris? Why? Did the other man know them? What led the other man to fall for the woman? Why did she allow it to happen? She fell for him; but did she feel ashamed that she dumped her fiance? Or was she glad she did, and did not look back? This is the "eternal triangle" situation - the Jack, Rose and Cal situation of "Titanic". Is you viewpoint character Rose? Why the 1920s and not the 2010s? The Hemingway and "Great Gatsby" "Americans in Paris" aura (although the characters are English)?

How do you expect someone to suggest a title if they have no idea what the story is about? You should do your own homework.

I think you should name it “Dope Skansen Django.”
