When coming up with the name for our production, we initially decided we wanted it to be a single word. We thought that this would have more impact as this is generally the pattern that most horror films take with naming their productions, for example 'Insidious, Sinister, Halloween, Psycho and Scream' etc.
We thought of a few different ideas, but they didn't seem complex enough and we were aiming for a title that had an underlying meaning or something that the audience wouldn't really get until they've actually watched them film.
We looked on different websites for ideas, and discovered different demonic names, etc.
In the end, none of these were really that effective in our eyes. So we moved onto a different way of sourcing a name.

Here, we had to break it down and came up with the key words that were to do with our film. We wrote a spider diagram with singular key words and then narrowed it down to the word 'Dream' as the most significant and relevant aspect of our story line.
From here we Google translated the word into different languages, but found that the Latin translations were the ones that sounded most creepy.
As a result of this, we collectively decided that 'Somnium' would be the name of our production. This translates directly to 'day dream' which we thought was extremely fitting considering the fact the our protagonist can't escape her nightmares, even whilst she's awake.
