I need a title for a story that I’m writing. It’s about a girl named [name_f]Lilla[/name_f] who is the princess of a fantasy world I came up with. But there is a gang in most of the cities that targets justice-bringers and innocent people. So [name_f]Lilla[/name_f]'s parents don’t let her go into the city without an escort, but if she goes with an escort they guard her so heavily she can’t communicate with the residents. So [name_f]Lilla[/name_f] starts sneaking out at night and exploring the city. [name_f]Lilla[/name_f] meets a boy with yellow, cat-like eyes who I [name_m]DON[/name_m]'T HAVE A NAME FOR YET :eek:!!! So if you had any recommendations for him, he is daring, witty, charming, smart, but still secretive and kind, and he’s about seventeen or eighteen.
Anyways, after she meets him, she keeps going out for another week, but one day she is attacked by one of the gang members. [name_m]Long[/name_m] story short, it’s basically about her and [name_f]Cat[/name_f] Eyes (that’s the nickname I came up with for him, and I made it the nickname [name_f]Lilla[/name_f] gives to him as well!), and a few other characters, trying to shut down the gang while [name_f]Lilla[/name_f] tries to maintain her true identity and keep her night outings a secret.
So I need a title for the story and a name for good old [name_f]Cat[/name_f] Eyes. Thanks!
I think that [name_f]Cat[/name_f] Eyes would be a cute and interesting title for the book! If that’s too obvious for you though, are there any important lines or events you could draw the name from? For example, the first book of the A Song of Ice and [name_m]Fire[/name_m] series is called A Game of Thrones, after the line “When you play a game of thrones, you win or you die.”
Using a part of a meaningful quote from the story can be eye capturing for a reader. As for events, you could also use places or important scenes from the book to derive your name from. Since your main character sneaks out at night, you might allude to the moon or the nighttime in your title.
Unfortunately, I don’t know enough about the story to give you a better answer, so I hope that advice helps at least a little.
Here are a few names for your boy character:
[name_m]Casimir[/name_m]
[name_u]Nico[/name_u]
[name_m]Marco[/name_m]
[name_u]Dash[/name_u]
[name_m]Stellen[/name_m]
[name_m]Ivan[/name_m]
[name_m]Ace[/name_m]
[name_m]Laurent[/name_m]
[name_m]Alistair[/name_m]
[name_m]Stephan[/name_m]
I agree with all of what Vestiges of [name_f]Summer[/name_f] has said, and her suggestion of [name_m]Casimir[/name_m] (which can mean [name_u]Peace[/name_u] Bringer) is very similar to [name_m]Cassian[/name_m] which I am suggesting! All the best with your story!
[name_m]Cillian[/name_m] and [name_m]Finnian[/name_m] are good for [name_f]Cat[/name_f] Eyes and go well with [name_f]Lilla[/name_f] (gorgeous name choice by the way - I know a [name_f]Lilla[/name_f] and she’s brave and feisty too). Or how about [name_m]Cassiel[/name_m]?
[name_m]Leo[/name_m] for [name_f]Cat[/name_f] Eyes? [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] would be great for him too, as would Silas. [name_m]Boris[/name_m] means ‘wolf’ but seems sort of clunky to me.
As far as titles go - how about [name_m]Night[/name_m] Fighters? Or In the Sleeping City? The [name_f]Princess[/name_f] and the Peacemaker?
Good luck!
Thank you so much for your recommendations! I really like the name [name_m]Cassian[/name_m] for [name_f]Cat[/name_f] Eyes, since it actually sounds feline, but I was looking for something that I could give to him as a short nickname, and [name_u]Cass[/name_u] sounded like [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]. So I decided to go with a similar name and chose [name_m]Caspian[/name_m], still has that feline sound to it. So far, I like [name_m]Night[/name_m] Fighters as a title, not sure if it’s permanent but for now that’s what it will be called!
Again, than you so much for your recommendations!
