How do you say "love song" in Latin?

Cantus amoris, or, carmen amoris. You can alter the word order, e.g. amoris cantus if you like because the inflexions show the relationship between the words.

Carmen sometimes means 'song', but it can also mean 'charm'. Carmen amoris would be a love charm, and also a love song.; carmina amoris would be the nominative plural. But you should also consider carmen amatorium / carmina amatoria (erotic poem / erotic poems). Most of all you need to remember that Latin has a full flection system, so the form of a word will change according to its grammatical function: The love song was beautiful :: Carmen amatorius pulchrum erat. The words of the love song were beautiful :: Verba carminis amatorii pulchra erant. Carmininibus pulchrissimis fascinata se amoribus dedit :: Bewtiched by his beautiful lovesongs she began to feel enthusiastic. .... If you want the name for a fictional character, what about Cantamor? This is from cantus (strictly a 'tune' rather than a 'song' - but there is a lot of overlap), and amor (love). Or you could call him Amorcant (same story). You might also try using names involving Eros (the spirit of sexual attraction): Canteros, Erocant, Erocantos &c. Incidentally Dilectus (masculine) and Dilecta (feminine) are both names derived from 'diligo' (meaning more or less 'darling / beloved').
