I have a character in a book I’m writing named [name_f]Vienna[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] Wimmer and she’s 16. She’s Austrian-American, but her first name is [name_f]Vienna[/name_f] because her parents went there on their honeymoon; in which they found out her mom was pregnant with her. I would love it you guys suggested names similar to hers for her younger brother and older sister? Name place names similar to hers would be great really. Thanks :)))
I tried to do others of European origin, particularly from countries near Austria, like Germany.

For other place names, [name_f]Odessa[/name_f] would be great for a sister! Maybe [name_u]Lucca[/name_u] or [name_u]Rome[/name_u] for a boy.
