[name_m]General[/name_m] backstory: This is for a mafia romance, because I grew tired of seeing the FMC freaking out about the “sanctity of marriage” and being angry about marrying a hot man for money. (I mean, let’s be real here, if someone offered me 1M for a two year marriage to someone who is hot??? and I get to live lavishly??? [name_m]Even[/name_m] with the risks… yeah, I’m going to do it. Anyway-)
The idea here is that the MMC owns a casino enterprise as their legitimate business, to cover up their not-so-legal activities (one being an underground fighting ring). He gets into a scandal, and to avoid negative publicity, he asks the FMC - that is his assistant - to marry him (as he’s the most eligible bachelor in the city, of course). This way the publicity will be on their quick engagement, marriage, etc. instead of the scandal. [name_m]General[/name_m] indifference towards each other leads to greater feelings as they peel back the layers of each other (of course there will be drama and stuff).
What I need help with is the FMC’s name. I do tend to lean toward gender neutral names, but it’s not a requirement. Obviously, she gives no s**ts about a fake marriage for money, has a laid back attitude, and is generally playful and witty. She’s more of like a go-with-the-flow type of person. Last name I chose for her was [name_f]Riviera[/name_f] (however, it’s not set in stone).
Name’s I’ve considered and why (if there is a reason):
[name_f]Parker[/name_f] - (Potential playful nickname used by MMC: Sparks)
[name_f]Ember[/name_f] - meaning spark, burning low (potential nickname: Em)
[name_f]Asher[/name_f] - meaning lucky, blessed (potential nickname: Ash) cute for casino cause, luck
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] - meaning core, heart, and an alternate name for [name_f]Persephone[/name_f]
[name_f]Raine[/name_f] - meaning queen
Please select one from the list above, and add a suggestion if you think of any (including a last name change if needed). TYSM (((:
