Okay, would you guys do me a favor? Will you just try to match the name with the Element? Each name goes with a word, and I keep doing this little exercise to see if anybody will understand why I chose the names for the Elements I did.
Elements:
Ice
Air
Water
Light
Fire
Darkness
Time
Thought
Earth
Reality
Names:
Eilian
Minoru
Essence
Aello
Nuru
Aquarious
Jazlyn
Avner
Ruka
Herez

I like Aurora Logan.

I like the Aurora Logan, you should pick that. No pressure, though. =P

Most of them I'm using but yep :) I love them all
For my main character I think I'm going to use Adelaide (Addie), but last night I was sort of playing out the prologue in my mind, and suddenly the girl started talking to me (...) and her name was Hanna! I thought Adelaide was perfect, but now I feel I need to use Hanna :/ Also, for her older sister (that died) I'm using Rennie (full name Florence). And then for 2 sisters (Really outgoing and gorgeous) I can'T decide. I might go with Ruby and Nina... So how do you picture a...
Ruby
Nina
Addie (Adelaide)
Rennie (Florence)
J'adore Adelaide. But I don't see why one child would be named something like Adelaide and another Ruby. They seem to be opposite ends of the spectrum of...shtuffness. Heh. Or it's probably fine, what do I know anyway?
Hehe okay :) Yeah, I really like Adelaide too... now if only I could work up the courage to actually start this story....
Lol. Still can't start though. I did randomly start writing and have produced quite a weird piece about a rich Victorian times girl.
i write weird books, so here are some weird names for fantasy and stuff- Mayva, Sabrinla, Gi-ea. I don't know.
Kriss wrote: "Yeah... Hmm. Its a fantasy novel so I want a fantasy-ish name. I just can't decide. One of the main female character's names is Soreil, and so it should sorta match with that, I imagine..."like I said before, these are girl names- Mayva, Sabrinla, Gi-ea.

YOU SHOULD USE THE NAME AUTUMN.Ha ha ha. I actually have this huge list of names written on like fifty pieces of paper...but then I'd have to type them all. Maybe one day.
So this post was a waste of time and I have now officially wasted several seconds of your life.
