I’m curious as to whether people tend to have an overall theme when naming their characters. You can include descriptions, if you want, or you can just write a list of the names you remember using for your characters.
Mine: [name_f]Kew[/name_f], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_f]Gigi[/name_f].
I’ve been wanting to share! 
[name_f]Kalliope[/name_f], [name_m]Septimus[/name_m] and [name_m]Zephyrus[/name_m]: Triplets, age 11. Last name [name_u]Gardener[/name_u].
[name_f]Rena[/name_f], [name_f]Rhonda[/name_f] and [name_f]Rosey[/name_f]: Siblings, ages 10, 11 and 12. [name_m]Minor[/name_m] characters. No last name.
[name_u]Logan[/name_u]: Age 10. English girl. Last name Elbuck.
[name_u]Phoenix[/name_u] and [name_m]Gryffin[/name_m]: [name_u]Logan[/name_u]'s half sisters. Identical twins. Last name [name_u]Ashton[/name_u].
[name_m]Johnny[/name_m]: [name_u]Logan[/name_u]'s older brother. Age 11. Last name Elbuck.
[name_f]Karen[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]: Age 19.
[name_u]Winter[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]: [name_u]Baby[/name_u]. [name_f]Karen[/name_f]'s daughter.
[name_f]Lilac[/name_f] and [name_f]Lavender[/name_f]: [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u] and [name_m]Gryffin[/name_m]'s alternate names.
[name_m]Akiro[/name_m] Matsushita: Age 10. Has red hair. [name_m]Friend[/name_m] of [name_u]Logan[/name_u].
[name_f]Marlee[/name_f] [name_u]Sailor[/name_u]: Age 10. [name_m]Friend[/name_m] of [name_m]Akiro[/name_m] and [name_u]Logan[/name_u].
