I put this in production becuase song names IMO
are a very integral part of the track and decides what type of samples/sounds u might drop in to the song and other things.....so where are yours from.......thoughts and emotions.....events.......randomness
Mine are mostly based off of Kabbalah and Books on Jewish Mysticism cuz thats wat i study a lot..............

yeah + something that shakes me the moment i finish the track.
i don't want to hijack this thread (though i've seen this question at least 4 times since 2002 on this forum) but other good question is where do you take you WORKTITLES from? when the track is not finished and maybe the idea isn't so clear, but you need to save the project to continue later.
what do you use for titling this? www.overdreamstudio.com

I would say that the idea, you are realizing, decides what samples/sounds will be in the sound and the name is just the easiest, most meaningful and short way to express what you try to achieve with the particular song.
You shouldn't write songs based on names, you should write names based on songs.

I tend to use the BPM of the track as a working title, as I have yet to work on two tracks of the same BPM at the same time. Pretty horrible system.
It might be different if I actually had a concept of what I was going to write before I write it, instead of all my songs being free-form experimentation / learning. I don't think its 'wrong' to start a song based off a name though, or a concept.
Seems Raja had an idea for a song with a title fully formed and...sounds pretty fuckin cool sofar to me.
completely off topic, but the funniest name for a song that hasn't been made yet imo is "Slithery Wibble" - i think speakafreaka said it when trying to describe acid 303 lines. still cracks me up.

the track i'm currently working on is titled (translated into english) "sixteen". so they're just numbered chronologically, but sometimes i'll split a project in two tracks or i'll use different names when i'm trying myself at a different style (e.g. naming the project "fullon1").
when the track is not finished and maybe the idea isn't so clear, but you need to save the project to continue later.
