Name for my new Book: Barren

[name]Hi[/name] guys! I’m writing a story for my Dad and I need help getting the perfect names for some minor characters. :slight_smile:
So the MC is a 46 year old buisness man named [name]Neil[/name] Gusman. His wife is named [name]Kelly[/name] and they have two sons, one who is fifteen named [name]Caleb[/name] and one who is twleve named [name]Levi[/name].

I need a name for [name]Caleb[/name]'s girl friend, something that sounds good with his name and not to out there or to common, so no [name]Katelyn[/name] or [name]Olivia[/name] or [name]Emily[/name] and such and no [name]Faye[/name] and Joycasta and other unique names. I was thinking [name]Allie[/name] or [name]Kayla[/name] or [name]Nicole[/name]. Something feminine as she is very girly. She loves to paint and along with [name]Caleb[/name] is fairly high on the social latter, but not in a cliche popular girl way, so no names like [name]Tiffany[/name] or [name]Britney[/name] or [name]Amanda[/name] and co. I’d also like her name to possibly have a nickname attached (like [name]Elizabeth[/name] with the nickname [name]Liz[/name] or [name]Rebecca[/name] and [name]Becca[/name]), if not that’s alright.
Name:

Next I’d like a name for [name]Neil[/name]'s annoying boss. His boss is ruthless and cruel, but rules the company with endless cunning and charm. He is fifty eight. I want a name that is typical for an almost sixty year old. (Not [name]Bruce[/name], [name]Fred[/name], [name]Bob[/name] or [name]Jim[/name] -or [name]James[/name] for that matter.) Something mainstream (boring I know but names will get better).

Now you get to name the dead. Most of [name]Neil[/name]'s co-workers die, so I need about seven names roughly, more would be apreciated. Get creative and last names would be a help. Hopefully nothing extreme like [name]Rainbow[/name] [name]Sunshine[/name] Happiness [name]Miller[/name] or to boring. Be funner with these names. I’d like them between this on a scale of [name]Sarah[/name] to [name]Alessandra[/name] and [name]Moe[/name] to [name]Gideon[/name], please!

Thanks!

Girlfriend: I like your choice of [name]Nicole[/name].
It has the sound in the middle that [name]Caleb[/name] starts with. Then you have [name]Nicki[/name] as a nickname.
I also like [name]Natalie[/name] ([name]Tillie[/name]?), [name]Rosemary[/name] ([name]Rosie[/name]), or [name]Danielle[/name] ([name]Dani[/name] or [name]Ellie[/name]) for a middle-of-the-road feminine name.
[name]Darla[/name]…?

[name]Boss[/name]: [name]Rodney[/name], [name]Harry[/name], or [name]Archy[/name]?
