Pakistani dramas have longed carved out the most exquisite and heart-achingly breathtaking character names for so long, they should honestly be your sole source of a little inspiration. Tickle your fancy with a drama, any drama – then just have a think about the character names; you’ll be pleasantly surprised just how wonderful they really are, and how fascinating their true meanings are.
