Millie (mwalker36) | 11 comments Hi! I am currently beginning to write my novel which is YA dystopia. It follows a place in the future where the government controls their people's memories to wipe any rebellious thoughts from their minds. At night, every person must report to their pods, where the are wired up.
Caspian is a Memorable, the person whose job it is to wipe the people's minds. What he hasn't old anyone is, he keeps the most important memories to start a revolution of his own.
There is also a girl, whose name I have not decided upon yet. She lives in the poorest area of the country where the land is barren and food is scare. These are the most rebellious people. During a routine wire in to wipe her memories, a virus sweeps through the system, effecting only her and Caspian. Their memories swap. Both knowing what the other knows, they must find each other in a world of chaos, to put right the wrongs of their society.

Please help me! I am stuck with a name for the female character. I am looking for an unusual name, preferably short. She is a very strong, determined, curious and rebellious character. The ideas I have are; Aurora, Cecile, Iris, Anya, Rae, Dulcie, Rowan, Avery, Ava, Tamara. Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted. I would also like to know if you think the plot sounds good (there will also be a romance aspect in there). I look forward to hearing what you think :)

Sigrid_02 | 18 comments This might sound a bit weird, considering that it is completely different from your ideas here, but how about Florence? I think it has a kind of romantic (yet strong) ring to it, especially when read in connection with Caspian.
Also, I think your story plot sounds very interesting!! Keep going! And if you feel like it, let us read a bit! ;) (Being utterly selfish here, it sounds really amazing and I would love to read it!!) :)

Jayne (BookingAwesome) | 18 comments The plot sounds amazing! I know that you've probably already finished it, but I love the names Rae and Rowan. I think the name Wrynn would be good, too.
