This thread is meant to give you a good idea of possible names for created characters. More will be added as time goes on, I will try to have both the names and the meanings here and go by boy and girl. I've picked form a variety of sources.
Although Family/Clan names normally aren't given, we can assume that most characters in the Fire Nation and the Earth Kingdom of noble birth have them. Peasants would not, nor, do I think, would the Water Tribes or Air Nomads. Because of that I won't give a list surnames here. It is entirely possible that characters like Admiral Zhao are going by their family name, and not their given name. Surnames can be found on various naming sites.
Also, if none of these fit your fancy, try names from various Anime. (Ones set in Japan or China, mind you.
) And if you're starved for mythological names, try pulling from Asian deities. There are also plenty of baby name sites that you can plow through Chinese/Japanese/Korean names.
Note: People making characters from either one of the water tribes are free to use Native American names as well.
