Renaming Rosemary

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone!

I’m currently writing a story about a girl who is roughly 19 and ditches college and her half-sister (who she is the legal guardian of) to go on tour with a very famous band. She has very pale green eyes and dyes her hair regularly. She plays the drums, though not in the band, just as a hobby. She’s a very rebellious person. Her mother remarried and had a child when she was 13 and died during childbirth. The daughters name is [name_f]Grace[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] and the husband’s name was [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] for reference.

Her name is currently [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] [name_f]Collette[/name_f] [name_m]Dennis[/name_m]-[name_m]Watson[/name_m], though it was changed from [name_f]Agnes[/name_f] [name_f]Collette[/name_f]. There are many names that I love, but for the stories sake, her name needs to have at least two nicknames (There needs to be a common nickname and and not-as-common nickname that no one uses except for her love interest. So for [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] the nicknames were [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and [name_u]Romy[/name_u]). The other names I like are:

[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]: [name_f]Amy[/name_f], [name_f]Lia[/name_f]
[name_f]Gabrielle[/name_f]: [name_u]Gaby[/name_u], [name_f]Brielle[/name_f]
[name_f]Audriana[/name_f]: [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], [name_f]Anna[/name_f]

I’m Completely open to suggestions though for first and middle names. Thank you!

Your character seems really cool! I noticed that you preferred more feminine names, so I found some that maybe you’d like.

The ones that have to do with music:

[name_f]Arianna[/name_f] ([name_f]Aria[/name_f], [name_f]Anna[/name_f]) I like this one because an [name_f]Aria[/name_f] is a song or melody, and given your story has a music theme, I thought this would be fitting.

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] ([name_u]Cali[/name_u], [name_f]Lia[/name_f])- In the list because [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] was the muse of music and poetry

[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f], [name_f]Serafina[/name_f] ([name_f]Sera[/name_f], Seph(y), Phina)-Fitting because the name means ‘Fiery’ and ‘ardent’, which would describe your character’s rebellious, fiery personality! And it’s also a high rank of angels (she has to be somewhat angelic to take care of her sister haha) But seriously, I really think this name is a good option. [Edit: I forgot to mention why it’s in the music section–its because Seraphs are the angels that sing to/about God]

Other names:

[name_f]Abiela[/name_f]-[name_u]Abby[/name_u], [name_f]Ella[/name_f]
[name_f]Arabella[/name_f]-[name_u]Ara[/name_u],[name_f]Bella[/name_f]
[name_f]Azalea[/name_f]-[name_m]Zel/name_m, [name_f]Lea[/name_f]
[name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]-[name_f]Em[/name_f], [name_f]Emma[/name_f],[name_u]Mel[/name_u], [name_u]Lyn[/name_u]

I also really like the name [name_f]Cressida[/name_f], it’s a feminine name but I can totally see a [name_f]Cressida[/name_f] banging on the drums. (Or maybe it’s because I have a drum playing [name_f]Cressida[/name_f] in one of my stories ^o^) The problem is that I don’t know if these are suitable nicknames…Cress, [name_f]Cressie[/name_f], [name_f]Cressa[/name_f], [name_f]Ida[/name_f]…[name_u]Cris[/name_u]! (If you want a tomboy nn)

This is all I have for now, will update if anything new comes to my mind!
Ciao!
