Dawn Cavenee asked Suzanne Johnson:

Do you struggle with naming your characters? Which name (of your characters) is your favorite?

Suzanne Johnson I don't usually have a problem naming characters. Sometimes I use family names (Drusilla Jane was my great-grandmother and one of my family names is Jaco). Sometimes they just come to me out of the blue. I like to use surnames as given names, and I think my favorite has been Mirren Kincaid. I'd been watching something with actress Helen Mirren in it and thought, "Mirren" would be a cool name...for a big, bad vampire--LOL.
