A Character List form is an easy way to keep track of all the characters in your novel. It keeps track of the heroine and hero as well as the villain and secondary characters.  You can also use it to keep track of characters you might use once or twice.  If you called the bartender at your hero's favorite pub Joe in Chapter 3, you won't want to call him Jack in Chapter 12. Just jot down the name and look it up later. It also helps so that you can look quickly and see that you aren't naming your characters in a manner that is confusing. Too many Joe's, Jack's, Jim's, John's and Jan's can make a reader toss down the book in dismay.
