A new story just flushed through my mind the other day and the fact that I didn’t have names for these characters was driving me insane! I came up with some names but I’m not feeling quite sure about any of them. Looking for all the help I can get!
Woman 1 [[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Joanne[/name_f] [name_m]Crawford[/name_m] [[name_m]Reynolds[/name_m]] “[name_f]Mia[/name_f]” ??]: She is a british woman in her early 30s. She comes from a family of lawyers and business people. She is a lawyer herself who secretly wants to be a writer. She studied abroad in the US. She has brown straight hair, brown eyes and a few freckles on her face.
NAME: I wanted to call her [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] but I thought of [name_u]James[/name_u] “[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]” for her love interest and [name_f]Gemma[/name_f]/[name_u]Jamie[/name_u] just didn’t work for me (too close I think) and I couldn’t think of other name for the male so I went with [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] for her. Not sure about it, tho.
For her parents I was thinking about something like [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] and [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m]. Also no name for her older brother.
[name_m]Man[/name_m] 1 [[name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Fletcher[/name_m] [name_m]Westbrook[/name_m] “[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]”]: Small town american man in his early 30s. Comes from a large family from the South of the US. Great mind. Moved out of the small town after college. Lives now in [name_m]New[/name_m] [name_m]York[/name_m]. He works for a large tech company. Loves music. He is tall, blonde, has green eyes & full lips.
NAME: [name_u]James[/name_u] was the only thing that came to mind. I wanted something simple and classy for him. Not sure about [name_m]Westbrook[/name_m], tho.
Boy [[name_m]Julian[/name_m] [name_m]Crawford[/name_m]] [4]: [name_m]Son[/name_m] of Woman 1. Total momma’s boy. He is his mom’s little buddy. The sweetest of boys. Not the sportiest guy. Loves books and helping others. He has brown hair, cute button nose, hazel eyes.
NAME: [name_m]Julian[/name_m] was also the first thing that came to mind that I thought fitted the description. No middle name yet. The full name will be quite relevant.
Girl [[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_m]Westbrook[/name_m] “[name_f]Nola[/name_f]”] [4]: Daughter of [name_m]Man[/name_m] 1. Total daddy’s girl. They live together on their own. [name_m]Even[/name_m] if she has a very girly girl, she is very active. Loves soccer, football, sports in general and whatever geeky thing her father is working on. She has a strawberry blonde hair (almost red), green eyes, freckles, sweetest smile.
NAME: [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] is a name I have been trying to find a character that fitted it. I think this might be it. Thought about switching [name_m]Westbrook[/name_m] for [name_m]Montgomery[/name_m] but I wasn’t sure about the sound of [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_m]Montgomery[/name_m].
[name_m]Man[/name_m] 2 [[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Reynolds[/name_m] “[name_m]Eddie[/name_m]”] [35]: Snobby British guy. Raised as an only child in a wealthy family. Ex-husband of Woman 1. Abusive and hungry for power. His family is longtime friends and business partners with Woman 1’s family. He is a tanned tall guy with brown hair and blue eyes.
NAME: I wanted a long older name that was more common in [name_m]Britain[/name_m] than in [name_u]America[/name_u]. Also need names for his parents. Not sure about [name_m]Reynolds[/name_m] for their last name. Thought of [name_m]Montgomery[/name_m] but that felt “too american” if that even makes any sense.
Woman 2 [[name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_m]Westbrook[/name_m] “[name_f]Flora[/name_f]”] [died at 27]: Deceased wife of [name_m]Man[/name_m] 1 who died during childbirth. She was a teacher and loved children. Her family lived close to [name_m]Man[/name_m] 1’s family and they were childhood sweethearts being that the main reason why they got married. She had long red hair, fair skin and big green eyes.
NAME: I love the thought of redhead [name_f]Flora[/name_f] but I still think of [name_f]Florence[/name_f] “[name_f]Flora[/name_f]” has being too british. Looking for something more southern belle like [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] but with the same feel as [name_f]Flora[/name_f].
[name_f]Sister[/name_f] of [name_m]Man[/name_m] 1 [[name_u]Ember[/name_u] [name_u]Linden[/name_u] [name_m]Westbrook[/name_m] “[name_f]Emmy[/name_f]”] [21]: [name_m]Little[/name_m] sister of [name_m]Man[/name_m] 1. Studying close to where he lives. Helps him out with her niece as much as she can. She is her brother’s confident. She has long straight blonde hair and blue eyes.
NAME: The first name I thought of. I’m not too attached to [name_u]Ember[/name_u], but she will be a [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] for sure.

She acts like a godmother to Woman 1’s son. She also has a son around Boy 1’s age. Her husband BFHusband is a seemly awesome modern man whose only flaw is addiction/gaming.

Best [name_m]Friend[/name_m] 2 [early 30s]: [name_m]Bachelor[/name_m], single and living the life. Big friend of [name_m]Man[/name_m] 1 since college. They work together in [name_m]New[/name_m] [name_m]York[/name_m]. Had a huge crush on [name_m]Man[/name_m] 1’s college girlfriend but only told him after they had broken up and she left.
