Sister Name/Name for Female Character

Writers' Corner

I’m rewriting my story that takes place in the middle ages. There are 10 children, and my female character is the only daughter. Originally, her name was [name_f]Blodwen[/name_f], but I don’t like it anymore, and I don’t think it fits in with the names of her brothers :confused:

Can anyone suggest names that would fit well with the brothers?

  1. [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
  2. The sister
  3. [name_m]Alistair[/name_m]
  4. [name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
  5. [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m]
  6. [name_u]Micah[/name_u]
  7. [name_m]Louis[/name_m]
  8. [name_m]William[/name_m]
  9. [name_m]Edgar[/name_m]
  10. [name_m]Jonah[/name_m]

If the boy names doesn’t fit with the middle age theme, I may change theirs too.

BONUS: Looking a brother name for [name_u]Noel[/name_u]!

Hmm, I kinda like the first suggestion, but it doesn’t have to start with a ‘B’! [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any suggestions to replace [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] and [name_m]Jonah[/name_m]? Or a name similar to [name_m]Jonah[/name_m]? I just like the feel/sound of it c:

The Middle Ages spans about a thousand years (from the 5th to the 15th century- from around 500 to around 1500), so I’d imagine that the names used would be different depending on the influences at the time. I’ve posted a link to a site called dmnes.org (I don’t know if it’ll show up though) which is all about medieval names form Europe. If you browse through the names it’ll show up all sorts of information on the name’s usage, its history, prominent figures with the name, etc. It’s pretty useful if you’re writing a story set in the Middle Ages.
