Character Name Dilemma

Okay so i have began writing a story, and I need a name for this incredible, strong, awesome girl. She is 22, a witch with a Doberman familiar, and she is full of spite.

I have connected with the name [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f], its strong, straight, and fits her, but I am afraid people might connect her to the character [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] Samos from the [name_u]Red[/name_u] [name_f]Queen[/name_f] series by [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] Aveyard, as the two are kind of similar. It need to be a long name, with a punch to it.

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] you fellow writers can help!

I would keep [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] if you’re connected to it. Think of all the protags named [name_m]Jack[/name_m] or [name_f]Mary[/name_f] etc. It’s a really awesome name, especially if you’re already strongly considering it. As long as the plot itself isn’t the same, the characters won’t be, either.

If you’re really concerned, maybe have other characters call her [name_f]Evie[/name_f], [name_f]Eva[/name_f], etc.

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] :slight_smile:
I really like [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]! If it’s sticking with you, follow your gut, that surely means something! I wouldn’t worry about its association with the other [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f], there will always be name overlap.
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] is powerful and strong! Some other ideas just to either get you thinking or re-affirm that [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] is the name for you!!
[name_f]Harlow[/name_f]
[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Lumi[/name_f]

hope this helps! Wishing [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] all of the best in her adventures! [name_f]Happy[/name_f] writing and naming!
