Hello I'm writing a book and have no idea what the title should be anyone got any tip on how to come up with one?

Good luck!
I do think it's important to come up with a working title though. Something that locks the book together in your mind and helps you keep it together as a real entity rather than a a jumble of words or scenes.
As for titles, I had the title for a short story. When I'd finished editing it, the reference was no longer there so I had to find another title!
So don't worry, some people find titles easier, others don't get their title until the end.
What's the book about?
What's the theme?
Put these words into the middle of the page and do a mind map / word association thing.
Take all the words you come up with and check alternatives of them all in a thesaurus....
