Quackyduck  (quackyduck) Speaking of naming, I hope you don't mind but I'm writing a story and I need some names. If I give you guys personality types, would you consider some names that would fit?


message 156: by Jess (new)

Jess | 47 comments yes


message 157: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments of course I don't mind..and I don't think kriss does either.

I live to help people with names (okay, not literally but I love to help)

Sure I will! I have an uber long list!

Quackyduck  (quackyduck) Okay, the book/story (It won't become a book) is about two orphan boys which I based off a manga I read. They are in fear that the orphanage might seperate teh two brothers, so they are trying to hide under society.

Brother 1: A naive, arrogent kind of guy, but would hold a soft spot, although he can overreact. He longs for the care for his brother, and would do anything for him, or anything to scam a free meal

Brother 2: A softy, kind of like Randy (My Name is Earl) who adores kittens. He follows his brother despite his blunt actions and thinks of his brother as an idol, even though he is only one year younger than brother one.

They meet a gang leader and his gang, and that to Brothers 1&2 is an opening for a roof over their heads.

Gang Leader: A strong, strict guy who procrastinates despite his leadership attitude. He has a soft spot for children, although only gang members A and B know this.

Gang Member A: The only girl in the gang, although you couldn't tell with her emotions. She speaks very rarely and is more of a 'emotionless character'

Gang Member B: A carefree kind of guy, who tries to avoids fights all together, despite being in a gang. People describe him as emotionless and flirty with women, although he has a policy of friends before women, although not very many know it. Although if a pretty lady comes along he won't be anything to resist.

Gang Member C: A young (early 20's) man who if you saw in the halls in highschool you would inspect that he would be shoved in a locker. Wears large thick glasses. He is very good with computers but not so well with social skills.

Gang Member D: A oldwer man, most likely in his forties, and some may think he has no use. Although he is very skilled in hands on fighting. Not a very important character

Gang Member E: A large man, although very polite, and intellegent as well. You won't think a man like him would be in a gang, but it turns out he has a very shady past and the government just isn't someone he will agree with.

I know this doesn't sound like much of a gang but it's less of a gang and more of a band of rejects, or a group of adults who can't afford a full life so they have to make it on the streets. The meaning behind this is TBA, and there are plently more characters, I just don't have my notes with me :P

message 167: by Jess (last edited Mar 02, 2010 05:10PM) (new)

Jess | 47 comments gang member B should be named Maria


message 168: by Quackyduck (last edited Mar 02, 2010 05:13PM) (new)

Quackyduck  (quackyduck) Gang member B is a male, unless you mean gang member A the only girl in the gang.


message 169: by Jess (new)

Jess | 47 comments yeah thats what I meant.


message 170: by Madelyn (new)

Madelyn (mad31lina) | 8 comments Gang Leader could be Liam.


message 171: by Madelyn (new)

Madelyn (mad31lina) | 8 comments Gang Member C should totally be Larry! Hahaha XD XD.


message 172: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments Bother 1: Alexander/Alez/Xander (Zander)

Brother 2: Harley, Connor

Gang Leader: William, but they call him Billy

Gang Member A: Tori

Gang Member B: Jason

Gang Member C: Elliott
Gang Member D: Joshua, Toby
Gang Member E: Radley, Rory, Thomas/Tom

just suggestions of course


message 173: by Madelyn (new)

Madelyn (mad31lina) | 8 comments Sorry. That name makes me think of this guy at my school.


message 174: by Quackyduck (new)

Quackyduck  (quackyduck) Lol, I really enjoy Brother 2 names suggestions, they seem to fit, as does brother 1. Billy has a menacing name to it, so it seems to work out, and William is more calm and friendly, so that suites his personality very well. I like the name James as well, but I don't know where to put it.


message 175: by Quackyduck (new)

Quackyduck  (quackyduck) And Larry is a great name for gang C.

message 180: by Dana (new)

Dana Salman I have no idea how I come up with my names. Probably just out of the spurr of the moment. Sometimes I try to play around with letters, like K.T or L.E.T (Katie/Eliot) and decide they stand for something else (Kerry Tess/Little Edmund Thomas [these are actually some of my characters' names:])


message 181: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments that's good idea! sometimes I merge names together

Kellin- Kerri+Ellen

(Kerri is pronounced like 'carrie')


message 182: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments it could indeed, I actually really like Kerlyn


message 183: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments that's cool

Um... I'm really sorry if this seems rude but you just mangled a couple words in that statement.

Charicters: Characters
Feir: Fire
Saposed: Supposed

Now with that stated, I will help find a name.


message 187: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Maybe the Elementum, it means elementals in latin.

Elémentaire, Primaire, both mean Elementals in different languages as well.


message 188: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Hmm... Here's some more:

Zywiołowy, Elementarny, Zasadniczy, Podstawowy, Pierwiastkowy


message 189: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
And some more: Elementtinen, Alkuvoimainen, Perus

They still all mean Elementals.


message 190: by Ellen (new)

Ellen (ellenpenleysmith) Wow. Cool. Did you research this or something for your books, Kriss??


message 191: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
I've researched stuff like this before for my books...

Like 'Somnium' means 'Dreamer' in latin.

Lumiere means light in french... Ombre means shadow in french...

I've got a lot.

I just know a good language translator.


message 192: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments I know Lumiere!

ehehe French...and 'Beauty and the Beast'


message 193: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Gr... Everyone says 'Beauty and the Beast' But that's not why... He's called that because he's the Demon of Light... In a since. <3's Lumiere.


message 194: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments I know! I'm just saying that's how I first learned the word, and then French class


message 195: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Haha, yeah... I know what you mean. I haven't watched Beauty and the Beast in forever... I want to take French class... And Spanish... And Latin... Russian would also be cool.


message 196: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments French class: MAH! Je deteste ma directrice!


message 197: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Haha... What's that mean? I looked around on google trasnlators and I got:

I deteste my headmistress! XD I dunno if I'm right... At all.


message 198: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments it's pretty much "I detest/hate/despise my teacher/headmistress/professer."


message 199: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Alrighty. So the translator wasn't a fail! Why to you detest her :P


message 200: by Ky (new)

Ky (poeticshark) | 10786 comments I just really don't like her: she is so rude!
