Name for Teenage Boy

Writers' Corner
1

The setting is modern day or a few years in the future.

The boy I need a name for is sixteen or seventeen. He has dark hair and hazel eyes. He comes off as kind of a badass - he’s a black belt and mostly wears gray. However, he’s pretty easygoing and is actually quite insecure/emotional.

I’m looking for a name kind of like [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] or [name_m]Jasper[/name_m]. Maybe a little preppy, but I’m leaning towards a suburban white boy feel. Maybe Emmett?

Other characters in the story are [name_f]Marigold[/name_f], [name_f]Viviana[/name_f] ("[name_f]Liv[/name_f]"), and [name_m]Rhett[/name_m].

Let’s see…

[name_m]Cole[/name_m]
[name_u]Owen[/name_u]
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]
[name_u]Alex[/name_u]
[name_m]Nathan[/name_m]
[name_m]Gavin[/name_m]
[name_m]Martin[/name_m] “[name_u]Marty[/name_u]”
[name_u]Bryce[/name_u]
[name_m]Jason[/name_m]
[name_m]Matthew[/name_m] “[name_m]Matt[/name_m]”
[name_u]Ryan[/name_u]
[name_m]Marcus[/name_m] “[name_m]Mark[/name_m]”
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_u]Emerson[/name_u]
[name_u]Tyler[/name_u]
[name_u]Nick[/name_u]
[name_m]Will[/name_m]
[name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_m]Nate[/name_m]
[name_u]Jay[/name_u]
[name_m]Paul[/name_m]

Most of these names are relatively modern or popular, since that’s how I picture the character. As a small town teenager myself, I based quite a few of the names off common names I hear a lot. I hope these help!
