: Re: Naming my character I am a beginner, would like to know if I can start a short story calling my main character "he" and then introduce his name later. If so when is a good time to do this?

Yes, you can do it, but it presents added challenges for she story telling. It is even possible to have a character never be introduced.

Now, for the hard questions: Should you do this? When should you introduce a character? The answer to these questions is the same, and deceptively simple: It depends on what fits best with the story you are telling.
