If I'm writing secondary-world fantasy, I hit up my Character Naming Sourcebook for names that would be semi-exotic-but-still-pronounceable. I'm using Ukrainian names in my Latest Thing, for example.

Sometimes I go to NFL team rosters and pick the first name of one guy and the last name of another.

It really just depends on what kind of feel I'm going for in the story.
