What are your favorite literary names that are unusual/unique but also useable and not too absurd?
We have an Ender [name_u]Grey[/name_u] and a [name_f]Lyra[/name_f] [name_f]Yvaine[/name_f], and we’re always on the lookout for the perfect name for future baby #3!
Some unusual ones I like:
[name_f]Aravis[/name_f], [name_f]Rilian[/name_f] ([name_f]Narnia[/name_f])
[name_m]Cyril[/name_m] (five children and it)
[name_m]Darius[/name_m], [name_m]Ivo[/name_m] (inkheart)
[name_m]Prosper[/name_m], [name_m]Scipio[/name_m] (thief lord)
I actually made a list of children’s books character names a while back in case you’re interested: Vintage Names & more
