Names for Socialite, Disgruntled Employee's and Heirs Wanted

Writers' Corner

I’m currently in the process of planning for a murder mystery/crime novel and I’m a little stuck. The majority of the more important characters have names- it’s just the lesser ones that seem a bit more elusive to me today.

Socialite
My novel centres around a group of socialites of whom their leader was murdered. I’m looking for a name that is not too common and would suit an American socialite whose father is a wealthy Hollywood producer. It would also be nice if the name fits with the names of the other socialites who feature in my novel- [name_f]Oriana[/name_f], [name_f]Clementine[/name_f], [name_f]Saskia[/name_f], [name_f]Freya[/name_f], [name_f]Arabella[/name_f], [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] and [name_f]Lily[/name_f].

Disgruntled Employee’s
The murder victim of the plot runs her own company. She’s a harsh employer and as such, a few disgruntled employee’s act as suspects throughout the plot. I need a few names for these- I don’t have any preferences, really, just that I have a good selection of male and female names that you think would work. Also, the names shouldn’t be too uncommon, but still not popular enough so the reader remembers their name.

Heirs
I also need a couple more names for wealthy young heirs. So far, I have [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] and [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m], but I would like a few more to pad out the cast and the complexities of the plot I have in mind. Any names you think work for an heir to a large fortune would be much appreciated.

Thank you very much for your help in advance!

Oooh, I think [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] is utterly perfect for the character. I think I’ll use [name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f] as the longer version of the name, [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] being the nickname that almost everyone refers to her by. I also quite like [name_u]Kennedy[/name_u] and [name_u]Brooke[/name_u]- the unisex names were definitely a help, so thank you. I really wanted to use [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] but everytime I go to write it all I can think about is [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] [name_u]Darby[/name_u] [a NZ actor] in What We [name_f]Do[/name_f] In The Shadows when he said, “werewolves not swearwolves.” I just can’t take the name seriously anymore, sadly. But I think I’ll use [name_m]Eric[/name_m], [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] and [name_u]Tristan[/name_u] instead.

Great! I’m so glad I could help!
Instead of [name_u]Rhys[/name_u], how about the spelling [name_u]Reese[/name_u]? Or other short R names like [name_u]Rory[/name_u], [name_u]Romy[/name_u] or [name_u]Remy[/name_u]?

I think [name_u]Reese[/name_u] or [name_u]Remy[/name_u] would both work equally as well, so thank you very much. If you think of any more names, please let me know!
