I’m looking to find a name for the heroine of my novel. I want a name that reflects her personality, the time and her physical description (and after seeing a few posts from other authors looking for names i thought i’d try and see if i got any good answers). The book is set in [name_m]New[/name_m] Orleans in the 1920s. The heroine is a young nurse who falls for an older man who she discovers to be involved in the bootlegging industry. Torn between morality and love for a criminal twice her age.
I originally planned on naming her [name_f]Florence[/name_f], but on second thought gave the name to another heroine in my other book. She is sweet, wise, patient, kind and as I’ve described concerned and morally conscious. Her appearance: curly brown hair, brown deer-in-the-headlights eyes, and rosy complextion. She is known as a very beautiful girl. Her best quality is her ability to see good in the worst of people.
I am open to suggestions for her love interest, [name_m]Merrick[/name_m], he has a tough but sweet personality. Rough around the edges personality with a chip on his shoulder because of his hard life. Masculine appearance. He has bright turquoise-blue eyes, short hair, looks young for his age (49), broad shoulered. Also a bit of a redneck.
Thank you. Much appreciation for your time.
