Hi there JohnnyBoy, and welcome to the forum.
Sounds like an interesting novel, you'll have to let us know when you've finished it and what it's called so I can get a copy.
A clown's name usually has something to do with his personality.
Clowns as a whole don't have a problem with any other group of performers as a whole, but in any Circus, there are always going to be a couple of people who don't get along very well with each other.
Read thru some of the intro threads, and some of the other specialty threads, they will hae some of the personal stories of some of the clowns on the forum. What you will tend to find is that a lot of clowns have something sad in their past that has had a huge effect on them, and may even have something to do with why they became a clown. A lot of clowns are or were at one time depressed, suicidal, abused, picked on in school.... Some have had a really hard life. Some were really messed up.
Hope you get what you're looking for, and keep us posted. Ask any questions you want on any thread you want. Make any comments you want wherever you want. Stay involved in the forum the entire time that you are writing the novel and we'll help you along when we can.
