Triplet Girls name help?

Writers' Corner
1

So I’m writing a story, and much of it has to do with Greek Myth.

My main character is currently named [name]Cameron[/name], however while doing research for her character, this name doesn’t really fit. She is the middle triplet daughter of [name]Zeus[/name] and one of the Charites. The Charites are the goddesses of charm and beauty in nature and in human life. [name]Cameron[/name] is the personification of human life, so I want to change her name to [name]Zoie[/name] which means life.

Here’s where I’m stuck though: I need names for her two sisters, one is older and one is younger than her. The older one isn’t as important because she doesn’t appear in the story, however the younger one (who represents beauty in nature) is a main character.

So my question here is, do you have any ideas as to what her sister’s names could be?

[name]Helena[/name] means light, which is generally associated with life! Plus it’s a nice wink and a nod to [name]Helen[/name] of [name]Troy[/name]
[name]Aurora[/name] is also a name meaning light
[name]Bella[/name] is a well-known name for beauty, but perhaps [name]Belle[/name] or [name]Izzy[/name]?
Or you could go the flower route, because flowers are usually beautiful, and they’re a part of nature!
[name]Primrose[/name] (may evoke some Hunger Games thoughts, but I don’t really associate the two)
[name]Daisy[/name]
[name]Chrysanthemum[/name]
[name]Chloe[/name] (a small, green shoot- not really a flower, but eh, it’s a plant!)
[name]Lilac[/name]
[name]Lavender[/name]
[name]Lily[/name]
[name]Violet[/name]
[name]Zinnia[/name] (not a personal favorite, but I think with the right character, it could be perfect!)
I hope this was at all helpful, and best of luck! I know how tough naming characters can be, believe me! If you need any help with your story or names at all, don’t hesitate to ask me!

Thanks for your help! I think [name]Acacia[/name] would be good for the oldest one since it means thorny and she’s a bit bitter towards her two sisters. I also liked your suggestions of [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Chloe[/name] for the youngest girl, however [name]Zoie[/name] and [name]Chloe[/name] is wayyyy to matchy. What do you think of [name]Calla[/name] (meaning beautiful) or [name]Senna[/name] (meaning brightness) or even [name]Fleur[/name] which literally means [name]Flower[/name]?

I think [name]Fleur[/name] or [name]Calla[/name] would be good. They’re both really beautiful names.

I like [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Calla[/name].

Oh! I didn’t even think about [name]Chloe[/name] and [name]Zoie[/name]- sorry! Maybe [name]Cleo[/name] or [name]Clio[/name], then? :wink: but yeah I like [name]Calla[/name]! You could use it as a short version of the name Calluna? I think that’s a really beautiful name! [name]Senna[/name] is pretty, but, it sounds a lot like [name]Zana[/name]/[name]Zanna[/name] which I [name]LOVE[/name]. [name]Fleur[/name] is a fantastic name ([name]Harry[/name] [name]Potter[/name], no?) and if it is right for the character, then I urge you to use it- I imagine the character owning the name ‘[name]Fleur[/name]’ should fit the name a hundred percent!

[name]Calla[/name] is a great name, especially for a younger sister. If the sister were older or the same age, I would be stuck between [name]Calla[/name] and [name]Fleur[/name], but with it being a younger sister, I definitely think [name]Calla[/name] works best. [name]Fleur[/name] is a gorgeous, perfect name, but it doesn’t sound quite…young? innocent?..enough for a younger sister. [name]Both[/name] are equally beautiful, though.

[name]Acacia[/name], [name]Zoie[/name], and [name]Calla[/name] sounds fabulous. That’s kind of hard to top, but you could also try [name]Linnea[/name], [name]Amabel[/name], [name]Ingrid[/name], [name]Alina[/name], [name]Rosalind[/name], or [name]Layla[/name] for the youngest girl.

I think that [name]Acacia[/name] is the best option for the older sister, and for the younger sister, I stand by my opinion: [name]Calla[/name]. Definitely.
