Help me with character names! [1]

I’ve got some early concepts of supporting characters, and I need some help coming up with names for them. Setting is modern Manitoba. Going to be as brief as possible to avoid writing long character descs.

Character #1:
A friendly girl who loves swimming and athletics. Theme colour is green. Has blonde hair. Thinking something chic - she may be Quebecoise but that’s not set in stone yet, so her name doesn’t have to be french. I have no idea what name I like for her - I have her written down as ’ [name_f]Miriam[/name_f] ’ in some early notes but I don’t really like that name for her.

Character #2:
The above’s sister - very airheaded. Theme colour is orange or yellow. Also blonde, with blue eyes. I was thinking something ironically vintage, considering she’s very ‘trendy’ and ‘in the moment’. I like [name_f]Helena[/name_f] , maybe.

Character #3:
Very ‘angelic’ in vibe, with a soft voice and kind, gentle demeanor. She wears only white, which is her theme colour. Names I consider for her include [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] or [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] , or maybe [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] .

Character #4:
Well-read boy, kind of a jerk. Has pale-ish skin, with black hair and black eyes. Know-it-all, a little arrogant. Teeny tiny (like 150cm). Theme colour is teal. I have him written down as [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] in early notes, but I’m not sure about that name. Thinking something lame.

Character #5:
Geek gamer boy, also kind of abrasive. Theme colour is green (probably). Is written down as [name_m]Garrett[/name_m] in early notes, but I’m thinking of something really weird, like something that would get you bullied hard in primary school.

Character #6:
Pastel goth/dark lolita girl, has a cheerful facade. Theme colour is purple I think, but any pastel pink, purple, or blue works, along with black. Very pale, has dyed hair that’s probably pastel pink/purple/blue. [name_m]Dark[/name_m] eyes. Thinking of either an elegant name with a cutsie nickname ( in my notes it’s [name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] nn [name_f]Dolly[/name_f] ) or something ironically plain ( like [name_f]Emily[/name_f] or [name_f]Laura[/name_f] ).

Character #7:
A young girl. Has to have a biblically significant name. Theme colour is blue. Was thinking to name her after a prophetess since her older brothers are both named after prophets (Jeremiah & [name_m]Ezekiel[/name_m] ), but could really only come up with two ( [name_f]Deborah[/name_f] and [name_f]Anna[/name_f] ) that were usable, though I don’t like either name for her. I have her written down as [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] or [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] .

Character #8:
A girl with a flower motif, enjoys fashion and flowers. Theme colour is pink. Not sure if I really want to name her after a flower or not, so she was written down as [name_f]Petra[/name_f] .

This post may or may not receive a sequel, hence the ‘1’ in the title, lol. We’ll see how it goes. Thank you for reading!

Here are some ideas for some:

Character 1 ~
[name_f]Chloe[/name_f] or [name_f]Elodie[/name_f]. [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] could change to [name_f]Chloé[/name_f] if need be. [name_f]Elise[/name_f]?

Character 2 ~
[name_f]Maude[/name_f], [name_f]Margaret[/name_f], [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f], [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f], [name_f]Lucille[/name_f], [name_f]Louisa[/name_f], [name_f]Enid[/name_f], [name_f]Edith[/name_f], [name_f]Agnes[/name_f], [name_f]Esther[/name_f], [name_f]Imelda[/name_f].

Character 3 ~
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f], [name_f]Bonnie[/name_f], [name_f]Alara[/name_f], [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] or [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f], [name_f]Noelle[/name_f], [name_f]Bella[/name_f], [name_f]Noella[/name_f].

Character 4 ~
[name_m]Miles[/name_m], [name_m]Anton[/name_m], [name_m]André[/name_m], [name_m]Kirk[/name_m], [name_m]Calvert[/name_m], [name_f]Lennon[/name_f], [name_m]Laurence[/name_m], [name_m]Sullivan[/name_m], [name_m]Donovan[/name_m].

Character 5 ~
[name_m]Algernon[/name_m], [name_m]Rudy[/name_m], [name_m]Brock[/name_m], [name_m]Latimer[/name_m], [name_m]Flint[/name_m], [name_m]Heron[/name_m], [name_f]Hero[/name_f], [name_m]Zadock[/name_m].

Character 7 ~ you could use [name_f]Miriam[/name_f] here, if that isn’t right for character 1. Nickname [name_f]Miri[/name_f]?

Character 8 ~
More rare flower names/meanings that might feel less on the nose: [name_f]Tansy[/name_f], [name_f]Calantha[/name_f], [name_f]Calla[/name_f], [name_f]Rosaura[/name_f], [name_f]Lilia[/name_f], [name_f]Fiora[/name_f].
