Musical Main Character

Writers' Corner

I’m working on an idea about a girl whose life is greatly influenced by music. She is 14 or 15, with long dark hair, lanky and tall.

[name]Isla[/name]…how exactly would you pronounce that? I think the middle name should be short and the last name should be longer, or vice versa (is that even how you spell vice versa?)
[name]Isla[/name] [name]Eve[/name]
[name]Isla[/name] [name]Ella[/name] (maybe it rhymes too much for your taste, but I think it sounds musical in its own right)
[name]Isla[/name] [name]Mae[/name]
[name]Isla[/name] [name]Kate[/name]
[name]Isla[/name] [name]Bree[/name]
[name]Isla[/name] [name]Della[/name] (same as with [name]Ella[/name]; rhymes, but sounds musical itself, so it fits the character)

Last names:
[name]Marx[/name]
[name]Reuben[/name]
[name]Elliot[/name]
[name]Brown[/name]
[name]West[/name]

I like the name Philyra, it means Lover of [name]Music[/name]. I’m a in love with this name, to any character who is out there.

Once again, how do you pronounce [name]Isla[/name]? Is it as it looks, is-luh, or is there some weird pronunciation?
@lyraslife, how would you pronounce Philyra?

Okay, thanks!

I think [name]Lyra[/name] fits your character, but it is also the main character of the [name]Golden[/name] Compass series.

What if her last name was the same or similar to someone musical?

[name]Mozart[/name]
[name]Lionel[/name]
Copeland
Beethoven
[name]Crosby[/name]
[name]Sebastian[/name]
Chopin
[name]Ellington[/name]
Handel
[name]Joplin[/name]
Vivaldi
[name]Haydn[/name]

Who are your favorite bands or musicians? Hopefully they can provide some inspiration!
