They all start with R's. *twitches*

I have problems with families whose names start with the same letter.

But that's just me.

They are wonderful.

OOPS. It's supposed to be Maclean. But yeah they all have the same letter. It's fun, quite fun. My friend Brennan's family has: Brennan, Brycen, Brianna, Blake, and Brooke. I think it's cute.

I'm sorry...it's just I've been keeping this (rather awesome if I do say so myself huhuhu) name inside for so long and I needed to just let it all out. *hangs head*

Autumn (flwurautumn) | 4987 comments What is a last name for a girl named Autumn?

I will tell you about Autumn. She is a girl. She has hair and eyes. She can't sing. She is very silly. She enjoys the intarwebz.

Also, she is looking for a new pen name.


message 663: by Jo (new)

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments I suggest a really romantic pen name, and her last name to be inexplicably common but still clicks with the name.

Autumn Lewis?
Autumn Spence?

message 665: by Jo (new)

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments I vote Autumn Lewis.


message 666: by Elliott (new)

Autumny Autumn Lewis. Has a nice ring to it, I think. :3

Question: I'm planning a new novel.
It's about a girl who's a part of the Westboro Baptist Church (or a fictional church that is very similar.)
Her name is Bethany.
She meets a girl who is a lesbian and they end up becoming best friends through lots of crazy drama.
Her name is Theodora.

I need a name for Theo's girlfriend and a name for Bethany's love interest. I don't really have any preferences on the names, only that they don't start with T or B and that they all sound good together.

Theodora & Ray, Theodora x Ira, Theodora x Samantha
Bethany & Gabriel, Bethany & Aaron, Bethany & Lee

Aah, I love the name Aaron with Bethany. I'm going to use that.
Thanks, Kriss!

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
I really need to find some good names for the two main characters of my unnamed novel that I'm starting.

The male character is supposed to seem like your typical asshole. Very callous, abrasive, blunt, sarcastic, cocky, etc. He has weird hair--it grows in bleach blonde, but then turns black, and the black fades into blue. Not realistic, but its part of the story. I've considered the name March for him, but I'm not sure. He's kind of selfish and petty, but beneath that he has a pretty good heart.

The main female character is just, well, insane. She lives like she could die any day now, and she's super reckless/ridiculous. She has this complex where she won't allow herself to like "good guys" because she's under the impression you can't trust them, so she always does the worst thing possible for herself, especially in relationships. She doesn't give a damn about her well-being or anyone else's. I've also considered the name March for her, but I'm not sure.


message 671: by Elliott (new)

Elliott | 22634 comments Mod
I think you should have the girl's name be March.

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
It might be. I'm still deciding. I like Lilith, too.

Of course!


message 674: by Elliott (new)

Elliott | 22634 comments Mod
Ah, that's a good name as well.


message 675: by RedPath (last edited Jan 01, 2012 03:07PM) (new)

RedPath | 853 comments I'm getting a Natalie vibe from the girl, but that's just me. Do you want her to have a pretty sounding name? Do you think it should be androgynous? Do you want it to be from any specific country? Any sounds you want it to have?

(Same applies for the guy, except I don't think Natalie would be a very good name for him.)


message 676: by Elliott (new)

Elliott | 22634 comments Mod
Really? Natalie doesn't seem to fit to me.

Aww, really? I was thinking Natalie for the guy! (just kidding P:)

I want it to start with either an L, M, or an A. I would prefer its short, up to five letters, and pretty blunt, if that makes sense? Sharp sounds. Doesn't matter where it comes from.


message 678: by RedPath (new)

RedPath | 853 comments I don't know why I was thinking Natalie. I guess all of the Natalies I know are cray-cray.

And I'm sure he'll have a wonderful school life.

KAYKAY.

Lind
Moira
Anne
Laine
Laken
Ada
Amity
Meyrl
Audrey
Aislin

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
The only Natalie I know tried to convince me to be a cheerleader...

Yes, I thought so myself ;D

Ohh! I love Audrey, Moira, and Laine >D


message 680: by RedPath (new)

RedPath | 853 comments Oh dear. That doesn't seem like something you'd do. Just sayin'.

YAY.


message 681: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
It isn't something I'd do. I was like, "lol... no :/"

YES 8D I think I'll either use Audrey or Leah.


message 682: by RedPath (last edited Jan 01, 2012 04:03PM) (new)

RedPath | 853 comments Leah is a beastly name. And so is Audrey.

*helpful*

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
I'll flip a coin xD


message 684: by RedPath (new)

RedPath | 853 comments That's how I make my decisions too. :D


message 685: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
I think I'm going with Lea c:

And I might go with Destrey for the guy xD


message 686: by Brigid ✩, No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. (new)

Brigid ✩ | 11973 comments Mod
Destrey makes me think of ... that YouTube guy. Who is a strange person. lol. :P


message 687: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
I read that as "that Youtube gay", haha

And... ejlkdjfla I don't know what to name him D:


message 688: by Brigid ✩, No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. (new)

Brigid ✩ | 11973 comments Mod
He may be gay. I'm really not sure. XD
Hmmm.... I'm kind of terrible with names.


message 689: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
I don't know who he is o.o but those Youtube men are always questionable.

Me too XD


message 690: by Brigid ✩, No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. (new)

Brigid ✩ | 11973 comments Mod
Here he is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esbbLH...

Gah, it's always just so hard to decide....


message 691: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Oh... I think I have seen him before o.o

It is, it is. Right now I'm leaning towards Rec/Rek


message 692: by Brigid ✩, No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. (new)

Brigid ✩ | 11973 comments Mod
Hahaha. XD

Hmm, that's interesting. Of those two I would go with Rek. Rec reminds me of like ... a rec center. Or something. :P


message 693: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
His sexuality is somewhat questionable.

It would be a nickname for Recene or Vareck or something xD Some weird name.


message 694: by Elliott (new)

Elliott | 22634 comments Mod
Vareck.


message 695: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Vareck? xD


Maria [the clockwork creeps on useless lives] (mariachhile) | 8772 comments Mod
I like the name Recene.

Vareck just makes me mad.


message 697: by Elliott (new)

Elliott | 22634 comments Mod
Yes. It looks neat.
Although if you say it out loud it sounds a bit awkward.
Hmm.


message 698: by Jo (new)

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments I am having trouble with a character's sister's name, Laura.

You see, this sister had been originally designed to give my character a pesky little annoying sister, kind of like Ramona Quimby. However, through the years (yes, I've spent years on this idea), I've given Laura too much imagination, a story of her own and a writing talent. I've been thinking...isn't this a name to dull for her? Would she ever seem the same with another name? Is this practically a copy of Anne of Green Gables' desire for a romantic name? Help me out.


message 699: by Elliott (new)

Elliott | 22634 comments Mod
I think her name being Laura is fine. Quirky characters don't always need quirky names. Names are given before the personality is even known.

I also kind of love the name Laura. :3

You should keep it, in my opinion.


message 700: by Jo (new)

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments Then should I add a second name? Or too pedantic?
