Deciding which names

Writers' Corner

So I am writing a dystopian story and I am struggling which names I like best for the five main characters. I’ll describe them.

Character A- is the main character is a shy, anxious, quirky girl. She has blond hair that is bobbed and blue eyes. I’m thinking either [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] Amaedeus , [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] [name_m]Amadeus[/name_m] or [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_m]Amadeus[/name_m]. I’m open to [name_f]Alice[/name_f] being spelled [name_f]Alyce[/name_f].

Character B is her rebellious, confident best friend. She has long brown hair, brown eyes, and tan skin. I’m thinking either [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_u]Carter[/name_u], [name_f]Samantha[/name_f] [name_u]Carter[/name_u], or [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] [name_m]Evans[/name_m]. [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] could short for [name_f]Teresa[/name_f]. [name_u]Haven[/name_u]'t decided yet

Character C is the third friend. He is protective and loyal. He has blackish brown hair and gray eyes. I’m thinking [name_m]Casper[/name_m] [name_m]Sonder[/name_m], [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Sonder[/name_m], or [name_m]Bryan[/name_m] [name_u]Sage[/name_u].

Characters D & E are C’s brother and sister-in-law. They are the mom and dad friends of the group. D (the brother) has black hair and blue eyes. E (SIL) has reddish brown hair and green eyes. I’m thinking either [name_m]Adam[/name_m] and [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_m]Sonder[/name_m], [name_m]Stephan[/name_m] and [name_f]Milicent[/name_f] (or humility, haven’t decided yet) [name_m]Sonder[/name_m], or Andar and [name_f]Coralie[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u].

[name_f]My[/name_f] brain groups the names together so chose:

[name_m]Adam[/name_m], [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f], [name_m]Casper[/name_m], [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] and [name_f]Cleo[/name_f]

Andar, [name_f]Coralie[/name_f], [name_m]Bryan[/name_m], [name_f]Tessa[/name_f], and [name_f]Chloe[/name_f]

[name_u]Or[/name_u] [name_m]Stephan[/name_m], [name_f]Millie[/name_f] (which is either [name_f]Milicent[/name_f] or [name_f]Humility[/name_f]), [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_f]Samantha[/name_f] and [name_f]Alyce[/name_f]

However, I am willing to switch it up to not those groups. I appreciate any input

I really like Andar, [name_f]Coralie[/name_f], [name_m]Bryan[/name_m], [name_f]Tessa[/name_f], and [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] from your group options! I think those all fit well together.

Character A I like [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_m]Amadeus[/name_m] the best.

Character B I like [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_u]Carter[/name_u] the best.

Character C I like [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Sonder[/name_m] the best.

Character D and E I like Andar and [name_f]Coralie[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u] the best.

So I think that would be [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] Amaedeus, [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_u]Carter[/name_u], [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Sonder[/name_m], and Andar and [name_f]Coralie[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u].

Character A - [name_f]Cleo[/name_f]! It has the most dystopian feel
Character B - I love [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_u]Carter[/name_u], I feel like a character like that would have a nn, and i think [name_u]Joey[/name_u] would make such a great nn for her
Character C - [name_m]Casper[/name_m] [name_m]Sonder[/name_m]!
Characters D & E - I love [name_m]Adam[/name_m] & [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f], and I think [name_m]Casper[/name_m] & [name_m]Adam[/name_m] make good brothers

A. [name_f]Cleo[/name_f]!

B. [name_f]Samantha[/name_f], because I feel like [name_u]Sam[/name_u] is the perfect nn for her.

C. [name_m]Casper[/name_m] [name_m]Sonder[/name_m] is gorgeous. I love it the best.

D and E. [name_m]Adam[/name_m] and [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] fits them best, I think.

Cleo, [name_u]Sam[/name_u], [name_m]Casper[/name_m], [name_m]Adam[/name_m], and [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]!
