First, their name speaks a bit about their background - what culture they follow, what their parents believe in, etc. You also need to consider the time period. If its modern, you can go with a more recent name, but if its from the Victorian era, the manes will be more... exquisite? I think that;s the word I'm looking for. Also, the name has to be unique as well as quick and easy to remember - something that sticks. But remember: names don't make characters, characters make names. Be it an Indian name or a Russian name, from the future or the past, the name is built and recognized based on who who the character is, not the other way around.
