The children of Chinese immigrants, they were named after people their parents were friends with when first arriving in the UK in the early 1990s, which is why the names are somewhat dated. I haven’t got a clue what to call the sister, though, but I’m looking for something that was popular around the time of the 70s.
[name]Wesley[/name] Ma is 19, studying history at university. He’s into DJing and is only at university because his parents made him go, though he wants a career on the club scene.
Unnamed sister Ma is 17 and very creative. She likes to write stories and illustrates them herself, and customises her own clothes. The only girl, she often feels her parents favour her brothers more than her because she isn’t as clever.
[name]Simon[/name] Ma is 14 and the apple of his parents’ eye. A keen footballer who also succeeds academically, but he feels as though he won’t be able to live up to the standards set by his elder siblings.
I think I like [name]Susan[/name], [name]Maria[/name], [name]Lillian[/name], or [name]Naomi[/name] for the girls’ name… Although I’m kind of leaning more towards [name]Susan[/name]. It sounds creative and just a teeny bit dull at the same time
I quite like [name]Susan[/name] nn [name]Susie[/name], but I think having two S names might not work. I rather like [name]Erica[/name] and [name]Melanie[/name], both familiar but not overdone in literature.
And I’m not looking for really 70s names, just names that would have been more likely to have been used around that time rather than modern, trendy names that were unheard of before the 90s. Something that, growing up, would have been more commonly found on a friend’s mother rather than a friend.
