Courtney asked Katie McGarry:

How did you come up with the names of your characters???

Katie McGarry Hi Courtney,

Some names I come up with by throwing a dart at a baby book. Sometimes I get on Twitter and ask for suggestions.

Other times, I research the meaning of the names so that they will have a significance. For instance, I spent a lot of time finding the right name for Echo. If you read Pushing the Limits you find out that her name has a deep meaning with her story.

The meaning for Noah's name will be revealed in Breaking the Rules (release date December 8, 2014).

Thank you,

Katie
