NAMES - Old
I need a unique, almost fantasy-ish name for my MC.
Looks: She's about 19, 5'3", lean, with thick and straight blak hair that falls a little below her shoulders. Her eyes are deep brown. She's tan, but it's a sickly kind of tan, if that makes sense. It's as if she was born tan, but she hasn't seen the sun in so long that it doesn't look healthy or normal. I could go into a deeper physical description, but I don't feel like it. If it would be helpful to know her physical flaws, I'll write them.
Personality: If any of you read about Elya in the Essence of Characters topic, this is a new version of her. (Elya won't work as a name, so...) She feels very passionately about a lot of things, but she tries to remain detatched to keep herself from harm. She cries when she's angry more than when she's sad, because she can almost always get the tears under control and sadness gives her more warning. She has learned to live alone over the years and can fend for herself, but she isn't the strongest girl out there--she can even be a little wimpy when given the chance. Pessimistic, a deep thinker. She has a really pretty alto voice, though she doesn't show it off much, and she is loyal to the MAX. Good listener. Her laugh is surprisingly loud if you can coax it out of her; her smile is small yet sincere. She's capable of being romantic, but she doesn't usually choose to be and she hasn't had much chance for romance anyways. Her favorite color is emerald. She loves horses, but most of them get skiddish around her.
That's what I have of her character so far. I know she needs more developing, buuut... Anyway. Name help? Please? =]

YESSS!
Can someone please help me with mine? I know it's long--I was just trying to give a good idea of her character and ended up rambling as I normally do.

Hmm... I like Soraya the best, though I might use a different spelling. Thanks! I already have an Evangeline in another story, but I want her name to sound kind of dark and sad. Thanks. =]

I thought you would like it. its like the perfect name!

Maybe...Zipporah, Audrey, or Zariah

Oria. Elda. Leona. Mariah. Sonyay. Sonya. Orrin. Scarlett.
I love fantasy names.
Hmm... I like Oria, Orrin, and Zariah! Z or O are good letters for her. Thanks for your help!

Jasper was my horse at camp. That would totally ruin it.

I think his name is going to be Ryce now. Does that sound too weird? I need to know before I get too attached to it.
That's so cool. I looked it up, and it turns our Ryce is a real name, and it means powerful. Which fits really well. YAY!

That's cool! I love when they actually fit.
I need a name for a character, but I don't want to explain him right now. :\

Hehe. I never meant for anyone to guess.

*headdesk* Please no. I just realized I NEVER described him. And he's a huge character. Crap. But I know what he looks like :)
Okay, he has light brown hair, and pretty much black eyes. He's a little scrawnier than the usual prince, but still a good shape. He has a strong chin, and a horrible complexion. A scar runs from underneath his lip to the underside of his chin, right before his neck. His skin is the tan that people get from working outside.
He is a demon prince, so he'd be _____ of Camen. His sister's name is Elvira. He's 17 years old. Right now he's about to be - spoiler, even though nobody would ever read it.

Renn... I changed that a bit and made one of my favorite girl's name ever: Renan.

>.< Nonononnononononono... That just doesn't work.
And... er... he doesn't live long. At all. I'm not going to say anything more.
My brother thought of one! Then I forgot it!

*gasp*
I just had an epiphany on that character's name! The one I've been having issues with!
I think I might call her Zamara (Zuh-MAHR-uh, Mara for short). What do you goodreadians think?

Yay! Thanks. =D I love Z names.
Then she also has a sister named Rhyll and a horse named Brie.

I need advice on last names. Her name is Raine, but I can't find a last name that really goes well with it. I'd prefer if it starts with a W. Any suggestions?
Okay, sorry, another name question.
I have two fantasy-ish names for two lead male characters in my NaNo. The problem is, I don't know which one should have which name. One is a traitor and sort of a villain, but not really, and the other will end up being Zamara's love interest. He's not the totally brave and heroic type, but he's still going to be an awesome guy. Once I develop him, anyway.
The two names are Pyre and Kender. I can't decide which one should have which name!
Pyre and Zamara
Zamara and Pyre
Kender and Zamara
Zamara and Kender
I think her name sounds good with both. I was going to name the evil-ish guy Pyre because it sounds more evil, but I almost want to throw people off and give the nicer guy a darker sounding name. HELP ME! Thanks. XD
