Hey Berries 
I created this thread so we could all share our favorite names from literature. If you’ve read a book with really well named characters or have your own list of favorite names from past books you’ve read, share them with us. Also, if you really enjoyed a particular book you can add the title & author.
I may be back to write more… off the top of my head, this is what I come up with:
From [name]Jane[/name] Eyre - [name]Adele[/name]
From [name]Romeo[/name] & [name]Juliet[/name] - [name]Juliet[/name]
From Much [name]Ado[/name] About Nothing - [name]Beatrice[/name]
From Their Eyes Were Watching God - [name]Janie[/name]
From The [name]Red[/name] Tent - [name]Rachel[/name]
I also love the idea of naming a daughter [name]Tennyson[/name] or [name]Emerson[/name] after the poets, but I would probably never actually do it.
From The [name]Little[/name] House on the [name]Prairie[/name] books:
[name]Laura[/name] (main character)
[name]Charles[/name] ([name]Laura[/name]'s father)
[name]Caroline[/name] ([name]Laura[/name]'s mother)
[name]Mary[/name], [name]Carrie[/name], [name]Grace[/name] ([name]Laura[/name]'s sisters)
[name]Rose[/name] ([name]Laura[/name]'s daughter)
[name]Eliza[/name], [name]Peter[/name] ([name]Laura[/name]'s cousins)
[name]Nellie[/name] ([name]Laura[/name]'s “enemy”)
[name]Charlotte[/name] ([name]Laura[/name]'s favorite doll)
Great names. Here are some names from the book I’m reading now, [name]Love[/name] Medicine by [name]Louise[/name] Erdrich. [name]Love[/name] the name [name]Louise[/name] btw.
[name]Beverly[/name] (m)
[name]Henry[/name]
Nector
[name]Lyman[/name]
[name]Bonita[/name]
[name]Lulu[/name]
[name]Moses[/name]
[name]Dot[/name] [name]Adare[/name]
[name]Shawn[/name]
[name]Gerry[/name]
Lipshaw
Rushes [name]Bear[/name] ([name]Margaret[/name])

[name]King[/name]
[name]Lynette[/name]
[name]Marie[/name]
[name]Gordie[/name]

[name]Zelda[/name]
[name]Bjornson[/name]
[name]Aurelia[/name]
[name]Eugene[/name]
[name]Patsy[/name]
[name]Albertine[/name]
What about the names of the Large Family from the children’s book A [name]Little[/name] [name]Princess[/name]? At least, their imagined names, I can’t remember what their real names were.
[name]Ethelbertha[/name] [name]Beauchamp[/name]
[name]Violet[/name] [name]Cholmondeley[/name]
[name]Sidney[/name] [name]Cecil[/name] [name]Vivian[/name]

[name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Gladys[/name]
[name]Guy[/name] [name]Clarence[/name]
[name]Veronica[/name] [name]Eustacia[/name]
[name]Claude[/name] [name]Harold[/name] [name]Hector[/name]
The combos are so over the top, it’s rather fabulous!
And then there were names from the school in the same book - [name]Sara[/name], [name]Lottie[/name], [name]Ermengarde[/name], [name]Lavinia[/name]…
One of my favorites is Pride & Prejudice: [name]Jane[/name], [name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]Mary[/name], [name]Katherine[/name] ([name]Kitty[/name]), and [name]Lydia[/name] [name]Bennet[/name]. And of course [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Lucas[/name] and [name]Georgiana[/name] and [name]Fitzwilliam[/name] [name]Darcy[/name]. Really, it’s just crazy how amazingly awesome these names are, lol. (Except [name]Charles[/name] and [name]Caroline[/name] Bingley. Separate, great; for siblings, too close.)
I’m fond of the Bridgerton family series by [name]Julia[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]:
[name]Anthony[/name] (m. [name]Kate[/name]: [name]Edmund[/name], [name]Miles[/name], and [name]Charlotte[/name])
[name]Benedict[/name] (m: [name]Sophia[/name]: [name]Charles[/name], [name]Alexander[/name], [name]William[/name], and [name]Violet[/name])
[name]Colin[/name] (m. [name]Penelope[/name]: [name]Agatha[/name] and [name]Thomas[/name])
[name]Daphne[/name] (m. [name]Simon[/name]: [name]Amelia[/name], [name]Belinda[/name], [name]Caroline[/name], and [name]David[/name])
[name]Eloise[/name] (m. [name]Phillip[/name]: [name]Oliver[/name], [name]Amanda[/name], [name]Penelope[/name], and [name]Georgiana[/name])
[name]Francesca[/name] (m. [name]Michael[/name])
[name]Gregory[/name] (m. [name]Lucinda[/name]: they have nine, but none are mentioned by name in the epilogue. Oh the sadness!)
[name]Hyacinth[/name] (m. [name]Gareth[/name]: [name]George[/name])
Finally, I just finished a book called “A Woman’s Place” and one of the characters had six siblings, none of whom lived past childhood, but I thought the names made a great sibset: [name]Helen[/name], [name]Blanche[/name], [name]Beatrice[/name], [name]Ophelia[/name], [name]Henry[/name], [name]Theodore[/name] ([name]Teddy[/name]), and [name]William[/name].
