message 1: by Nina (new)

Nina If Ruthy's gonna tell Jack a German fairytale, I'd say you need a Nina! ;-)


message 2: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Dunne Yes, Nina is a fitting name. Keep an eye out for yourself...


message 3: by Breda (new)

Breda Gillespie My name is so Irish and boring,but its also a place in the Netherlands


message 4: by Emily (new)

Emily Munn How about an Emily? I haven't seen any Emilys in a book forever!


message 5: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Dunne You're in Emily...


message 6: by Grace (new)

Grace What about Grace? That sounds good to me.....


message 7: by Heather (new)

Heather The name Heather is pretty cool. It's the name of a flower and means flowering. I feel like that resembles a character arc, like a person coming into their own. Just my perspective. I'm currently in that process myself, since I'm changing careers.


message 8: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Dunne Maybe i can fit a Heather in there somewhere. Jonathan.
(Keep your eyes peeled when the book comes out around April).


message 9: by Tony (new)

Tony Lovell How about a Tony? I mean, it just rolls right off the tongue, it's a name AND an adjective (see Merriam-Webster definition: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictio...), AND there's a prominent award for Broadway named after it.

Just a suggestion.

Tony.

That is all.

(Tony.)


message 10: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Dunne You're in Tony.
Regards
Jon


message 11: by Aparna (new)

Aparna You won't need an Indian name by any chance, will you? :)


message 12: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Dunne Not for now, Aparna. I can't see a situation where I could use that name as it would attract too much attention. Tertiary characters names should be as non-descript as possible...IMO.
But I will base a book in India in the future. I lived there for a while and would like to get my memories on paper.
Thanks


message 13: by Heather (new)

Heather Off topic: What did you do while you lived in India? My dad went on a business trip to New Delhli when I was in high school. I hope you didn't drink any water from a tap, or that it was filtered.


message 14: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Dunne hi I was traveling around India with a backpack. I saw many interesting thingsand Met really good people. someday I would like to use my experiences as the basis of a book. I ended up getting very ill in Indiaafter two months and I had to return to Ireland really fast. I even fainted on the airplane home. To this day the doctors don't know what I contracted in India but probably some type of gastroenteritis…with hallucinations :-) it wasn't too funny at the time though...

Did you happen to visit Kerala by any chance? (That's where I'm from)


message 17: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Dunne No but it was on my itinerary. I was in Rajasthan 2 months but had to cut it short. Some day...
