Does the character have to be human? The book I just finished has a dog named Milo, who is an ongoing character in the series. Acceptable or no?

The rules say find the name - so I'd say YES! :)

[Deanie]

It's All in a Name 2020

Level 1: 20-63 Names
Level 2: 64-110 Names

*There is no limit to the names you may use from each book you read.
*The name doesn't have to belong to a main character, but it MUST be a first name of the author or a character in the book. If you are listening to an audio book, you may use the first name of the narrator.
*You may use alternate spellings of names as long as it sounds the same, BUT you may not use different forms (i.e. for Anna you could use Ana or Annah, but not Ann or Anya). If a character goes by a nickname you may count it as long as the requested form is given somewhere in the book (i.e. a character goes by Andy but his given name is Andrew, as long as it is in the text of the book somewhere you may count it for Andrew).
