If you have come up with names of your main characters and they do not seem to be clear, then script authorization is the only way that you will be able to change them before the production process begins. It also helps you to come up with alternative names that can be used in case of lack of clarity. Some characters might also require you to change their names and it can only be done during the clearance.
