Really need help naming character!

My character started off as a very disturbing child.Her father left when she was very young and her mother never remarried. She loved reading horror stories and watching scary movies. She never spoke to anyone and always stood in a corner alone while the other kids socialized. [name]Even[/name] in high school, she was bitter and anti-social and never spoke to anyone other than her future band members. She loved to sing but did it privately so no one could hear. When she found out a sophomore and her friends were having an audition for the vocalist of their metal band, she broke out of her shell for that one time and sang and screamed her heart out. A few days later, she found out she won the spot as vocalist. She was happy, and yet very unhappy. In her senior year, she was sent to a mental asylum on suicide watch for a few weeks and was diagnosed with schizophrenia. That explained the voices in her head and the visions she saw but was too afraid to tell anyone about. After she got out, her mother sent her to live anywhere else but her house. So, she went to her guitarist’s house to stay. It was time to get to work on all the songs she wrote in the past. Now she is 19 and in just one year, the metal band Mangler grew to be very successful due to her hard work. Physically, she has a black bob that’s similar to [name]Kimberly[/name] Caldwell’s, piercings all over her ears, a barcode tattoo on her wrist, a safety pin tattoo on her calf, and shocking hazel eyes. She is very skinny, small, and pale. She also has very long and skinny fingers. She’s lived in New York City all her life. She is an atheist, a misanthrope, and asexual. She wears a signature skeleton key around her neck. [name]Every[/name] day, she only wears black. She’s not goth, she just loves black. She also has quite a masculine and raspy voice for such a small girl. She enjoys bands such as Cannibal Corpse, Motionless in White, Slipknot, Coheed and [name]Cambria[/name], [name]Emilie[/name] [name]Autumn[/name], Pantera, Korn, HIM, My Chemical [name]Romance[/name], [name]Marilyn[/name] [name]Manson[/name], [name]Rob[/name] Zombie, Queens of the [name]Stone[/name] Age, [name]Nirvana[/name], and [name]Regina[/name] Spektor. As you can see, she has many details but I need help naming her. I was thinking that [name]Robin[/name] or [name]Kenzi[/name] would be nice, but I need more ideas. Please help!

I like [name]Kenzi[/name] for her. It seems like a better fit than [name]Robin[/name]. [name]Robin[/name] seems a bit dated to me, like it would fit someone older than the character you’re describing.

[name]Nixie[/name] came to mind from your description. Or maybe [name]Alice[/name] or [name]Alys[/name], since I get a bit of an [name]Alice[/name] Glass vibe. Or [name]Morgan[/name]? It would with her metal image, with the “morgue” and “morbid” connotations. Or [name]Nyssa[/name]?

[name]Ever[/name] ([name]Everly[/name])
[name]Skye[/name]
[name]Echo[/name]
[name]Zara[/name]
[name]Faye[/name]
[name]Kit[/name]
[name]Tess[/name]
[name]Dani[/name]
[name]Lane[/name]
[name]Jasmine[/name] ([name]Jas[/name])

For some reason I feel like she should have kind of a normal name in contrast to her character. Giving her a name like [name]Kenzi[/name] which is kind of edgy would be just “too fitting” you know?
[name]Emily[/name]- This name has always had a disturbing feel to it to me. Either because of the exorcism movie or “[name]Emily[/name] the Strange”
[name]Anna[/name]/ [name]Annabel[/name] -like the gothic poem
[name]Willow[/name] - symbolizes grief/sorrow
[name]Kiera[/name]/[name]Kieran[/name]- means little dark one
[name]Delaney[/name]-means dark challenger
[name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Sage[/name]
[name]Alix[/name]
[name]Teagan[/name]
[name]Hope[/name]
[name]Jade[/name]
[name]Opal[/name]
[name]Olive[/name]
[name]Lyric[/name]
[name]Lilith[/name]
[name]Lark[/name]
[name]Blythe[/name]
[name]Blair[/name]
[name]Calix[/name]
[name]Sable[/name]
[name]Avery[/name]
[name]Colby[/name] - I’ve heard of this as a girls name too.
[name]Blake[/name]- ditto [name]Colby[/name]
[name]Noel[/name]

[name]Betty[/name]
[name]Penny[/name]
[name]Autumn[/name]
[name]Hope[/name]

Some names that came to mind. [name]Hope[/name] I could help! :slight_smile:

As a fellow writer, I feel your name frustration! I would say something that means black/dark:
[name]Ciara[/name]/[name]Kiara[/name]- [name]Love[/name] it!
[name]Blake[/name]- Masculine, but tough in a nice unisex way
[name]Cora[/name]- I think it’d be very fitting
[name]Cari[/name]- Same Gaelic roots as [name]Ciara[/name], different feel
[name]Melanie[/name]- Ehh
[name]Nerissa[/name]- Really like for this character
[name]Sable[/name]- Ehh
[name]Raven[/name]/[name]Ravenna[/name]- Like [name]Ravenna[/name] …
[name]Merle[/name]- Ehh

Okay, that exhausts my dark/black names. You might try Latin names- I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Antonia[/name] nn [name]Toni[/name]

I think [name]Morgan[/name], [name]Teagan[/name], [name]Sable[/name], and [name]Antonia[/name] with the nn [name]Toni[/name] sound good with your character description. Other suggestions would be [name]Taryn[/name], [name]Bryn[/name], and [name]Lara[/name].
