Name My Characters

[Abigail]

and the winner is... Effie Graham!

[Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell]

So close. Got the "G." LOL!

[Pamela(AllHoney), Fairy Godmother]

LOL that's parts of the 2 names I came up with. hehe. I knew Effie was a good name. **pats myself on back**

[Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell]

Yeah, I saw that, Pamela. Congrats!

[Pamela(AllHoney), Fairy Godmother]

lol. I was just kidding *now embarrassed*

[Abigail]

Gertrude was close, actually. I like the old fashionedness of it, but thought Effie just had that extra something.

Yay Pamela! I wish I had prizes for this.

[Pamela(AllHoney), Fairy Godmother]

I'm happy. I don't need a prize ☺

[Abigail]

Lyle Carlson, Boyfriend #1, has been chosen. Thanks, Gerrie!

[Abigail]

Starting a new story to go with the With This Ring series. This one is called Who Wants to Marry a Fireman. *grin* No, I don't subscribe to romance tropes at all.

Anyway, the backdrop has the Bachelor-type competition going in, but it's more like a free-for-all. Instead of one man and many women, I'm going with eight men and eight women.

I need: names, ages (between 23 and 33, probably), and occupations. Anyone?

[Pamela(AllHoney), Fairy Godmother]

Shelby Landers, 30, history teacher
Julie Scott, 26, yoga instructor/health food store employee
Elaine Tarkington, 31, executive secretary
Reena Lucas, 24, student nursing school

Benny Gilmore, 28, owner Benny's Bar and Grill
Kenner Hazelwood, 33,Insurance Salesman
Johnathan Poindexter, 29, owner of health food store
Nick Doyle, 25, medical intern

[Gerrie]

Abigail, I'm sorry I haven't checked in here for a while, but Go Lyle Carlson!

Pamela's listed some great names and occupations. But since they're are eight of each, maybe I can add on. You can mix and match any of them if you even like one name or occupation.

April Vincent - 25, law student
Gina Benedict - 31, emergency room nurse
Grace Collard - 29, landscape designer
Eva Dreyfus - 33, pastry chef and bakery owner
Liz Costas - 30, pharmacist

Christopher Baily - 32, veterinarian
Brody Thompson - 24, graduate student in business
Zach Bellamy - 30, software developer
Gavin Lantos - 32, physical therapist
Matt Lerner - 29, architect

[Pamela(AllHoney), Fairy Godmother]

Love your list, Gerrie ☺

[Abigail]

You guys don't know how much I appreciate it! *laugh* My poor little brain can't take coming up with names all the time.

Keep 'em coming! Some names I can't use because I know someone with that name or I've already used it, and some occupations I can't use because I've already used them, too!

[Abigail]

Bailey Thompson or Bailey Bellamy for my heroine Janelle's best friend. I also need a last name for Janelle.

I don't have a job for Bailey, but Janelle is an investigative reporter.

(Thanks for the list of names. I mixed and matched to find Bailey.)

[Pamela(AllHoney), Fairy Godmother]

jobs? Hmmmm, doctor, lawyer, photographer, social worker, accountant, teacher, court reporter, chemist, fitness trainer, financial analyst, librarian, pharmacist, police, Microbiologist, nurse, veterinarian, writer, bank teller, laboratory technician, dentists, dental hygenist, emergency medical technician, employment interviewers, Hotel manger, insurance salesperson, loan officer, medical assistant, musician, optometrist, podiatrist, private investigator, real estate manager, real estate salesperson, day care worker, surveyor, travel agent, criminal investigator, firefighter, forensic science technician, intelligence analyst, dispatcher, security guard, chiropractor, dermatologist, medical transcriptionist, neurologist, physical therapist, auditor, advertising agent, compliance manager, human resources assistant, legal secretary, purchasing manager, statement clerk, and many more ☺

[Abigail]

Wow... That's a great job list.

I realized Bellamy is the last name of the heroine in Becky McGraw's book, which I'm currently reading. I'm going with Thompson for Bailey.

[Abigail]

You guys you guys you guys! I finally have my Cast of Characters for Who Wants to Marry a Fireman?

We return to the Crescent Ridge Ranch in WY (WWTMADoctor takes place near Savannah, GA) and meet:

Heroine Janelle Paquette, an investigative reporter
and Hero Tyler Armstrong, the Firefighter.

We also meet our local Bachelorettes:
Grace Collier, an awkward landscape designer and a rancher
Elaine Kenner, an advertising executive
Cori Eckersley, a librarian and a rancher
and Vicki Desmond, a pastry chef/bakery owner and a rancher

And the local bachelors:
Cal Morgan, car salesman
Travis Quinton, compliance manager
Zach Walker, a vet and a rancher
and William "Web" Jackson, a rancher who does nothing else

THANK YOU for your list of names and occupations. It took me, like, a quarter of the time to come up with them because of y'all's imagination.
