Character Needs New Name

This one isn’t in my other thread, haha. I forgot about him. :stuck_out_tongue:

Wavy dark brown hair, blue eyes, face and build a bit square. He’s the star swimmer and basically the heartthrob of high school (you know the drill). [name]Cheerful[/name] and friendly, but he has a temper that takes the form of silent anger progressing up to an outburst. Very determined and righteous. He was named after his father, so his parents call him [name]Junior[/name] (to his general dismay). He has a younger sister named [name]Mercedes[/name], who’s spoiled rotten and somewhere between the ages of eight and eleven. Extremely wealthy family, but he doesn’t really care or pay attention to it–it’s more of a fact than something to be proud of for him. He doesn’t get along with his parents too well as they have different expectations for him than he does.

The name needs to be somewhat traditional/clasic and have a nickname or two. His current name is [name]Richard[/name] nn [name]Rich[/name], but that’s a bit too much for me since he actually is rich.

Maybe a posh surname name?

[name]Kenyon[/name]
Haddonfield
[name]Prescott[/name]
MacKinnon
[name]Marshall[/name]
Candler
Vancleve

non law firm names:
[name]Martin[/name]
[name]Louis[/name]
[name]Warren[/name]
[name]Edward[/name]
[name]Charles[/name]
[name]Arthur[/name]

I like:

[name]Prescott[/name]
[name]Marshall[/name]
[name]Warren[/name]

Here are some more ideas:

[name]Robert[/name]
[name]Alexander[/name]
[name]Tobias[/name]

I thought about [name]Robert[/name] nn [name]Rob[/name]/[name]Robby[/name]; I think I’ll try that out and see how it goes. Any other suggestions are still GREATLY appreciated, it’s really hard to rename a character after he’s had the same name for five years…

if you want to change the main charrie’s name, you’ll have to change the dad’s. Try something like Alexaxander nn [name]Alex[/name] or [name]Maxwell[/name] nn [name]Max[/name]. You can even try [name]Charles[/name] nn [name]Charlie[/name]/[name]Chuck[/name] or [name]Samuel[/name] nn [name]Sam[/name].

Some more ideas:

[name]Walter[/name]
[name]Thomas[/name]
[name]Frederick[/name]
[name]Franklin[/name]
[name]Theodore[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name]

I think I’m going to go with [name]Robert[/name], guys. :slight_smile: Thanks for all the input!
