In a little thing – which probably won’t turn out being all that little – that I’m working on, my main character’s family are in need of some names. At the moment, my MC has an adopted son – [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Remus[/name_m] ‘[name_u]Teddy[/name_u]’ – who is four at the beginning of the series, but his future siblings are (mostly) nameless. Last name begins with S and is one syllable.
Oooh as a HP fan it is oddly [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] to me. [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] [name_m]Remus[/name_m] Lupin, [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_f]Lily[/name_f].
I used [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] for my AU Cursed Child fanfic so I will suggest [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] as a middle name. Since we already have [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Remus[/name_m] & [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Anthony[/name_m] other boys can be [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Orion[/name_u], [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_m]Percival[/name_m] & [name_m]Franklin[/name_m] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]? //I do think you like Gryff characters more as a Slytherin//
I like the name [name_f]Anna[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] though [name_f]Amabel[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] or [name_f]Annabel[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] could work. Other names for your family are:
[name_f]Diana[/name_f]
[name_f]Alison[/name_f] or [name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Adina[/name_f]
[name_f]Helena[/name_f] or [name_f]Helen[/name_f]
[name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] or [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f]
@elifsu – It is a HP fic; I was wondering if anyone would pick up on it! I like the idea of [name_m]Frederick[/name_m], because my MC (fem![name_m]Harry[/name_m]) was very close to the namesake, but the Weasleys (sans [name_m]George[/name_m]) have essentially abandoned my MC, so [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] isn’t all that good an idea lol. And I’m not sure whether [name_m]Sirius[/name_m] would be all that pleased to find out that his Goddaughter named her son after his ever-so-despised father. I like [name_m]Franklin[/name_m] as well (after [name_m]Frank[/name_m] Longbottom, I presume?). My MC is a lot closer to [name_m]Remus[/name_m] than [name_m]Harry[/name_m] is in canon due to certain events, so I wanted to honour him, but then [name_u]Teddy[/name_u]'s middle name is also [name_m]Remus[/name_m], so I’m at a bit of a dilemma at that…
Overall, people that I want to honour include:
– [name_u]James[/name_u] (after [name_m]Potter[/name_m], and then another character)
– [name_m]Anthony[/name_m] (the father’s name)
– [name_m]Sirius[/name_m] ([name_m]Black[/name_m])
– [name_m]Remus[/name_m] (Lupin)
– Nymphadora (Tonks, hence ‘[name_f]Dora[/name_f]’)
– [name_f]Lily[/name_f] ([name_m]Evans[/name_m])
– [name_m]Fred[/name_m] (Weasley)
– [name_m]George[/name_m] (Weasley)
– [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] ([name_m]Granger[/name_m])
– [name_m]Neville[/name_m] (Longbottom, maybe [name_m]Frank[/name_m] and [name_f]Alice[/name_f] - the latter is my MC’s Godmother)
I haven’t really decided how many kids MC’s going to have (up there’s just a rough idea), but I love the idea of her having triplet boys and naming them [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Sirius[/name_m], and [name_m]Remus[/name_m], so what about:
DS (11): [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Remus[/name_m] ‘[name_u]Teddy[/name_u]’ (I am aware it should be [name_m]Edward[/name_m], but… shrug)
DD (6): [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] ‘[name_f]Mia[/name_f]’
DS (4): [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Anthony[/name_m] ‘[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]’
DS (4): [name_m]Sirius[/name_m] [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] ‘[name_f]Siri[/name_f]’
DS (4): [name_m]Remus[/name_m] [name_m]George[/name_m] ‘[name_u]Remy[/name_u]’
DS (2): maybe Regulus [name_m]Frank[/name_m] ‘[name_m]Reg[/name_m]’? (I’ve always liked the idea of [name_m]Harry[/name_m] naming a son Regulus, so…)
DD (3 mths): [name_f]Dora[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f]
PS: My best friend is a proud Gryffindor, as well as most of my favourite characters, namely Remus and Sirius, so you’re accurate on that point.
@weaverblue – I like [name_f]Anna[/name_f] a lot, thanks! From your other suggestions, I like [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] and [name_m]Frederick[/name_m], and [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] and [name_f]Claire[/name_f]. Thanks!
