IMO [name_f]Mildred[/name_f] [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] would flow better, but that extra syllable doesn’t hurt much and it’s prettier anyway
Giving my character a full name for the nickname he goes by, which is “Pam”. I’ve been stuck between two options for over a week! He’s around 19-ish, and is a sort of free-spirited, “bright-eyed and bushy-tailed” tinkerer who loves the satisfaction of inventing things and wants to see the world. His mother came from wealth but for reasons, he has no contact with her and doesn’t want to associate in any way with that side of his blood. Hence, he has truncated his given name (that should sound “fancier” but still ideally not feel totally out of place for his character?) to just “Pam”.
I like the first on because it gives me Galahad (i.e. fancy) / Callaghan (i.e. casual enough to suit him) vibes, but I like the second one because I like how the “Pam” part is hidden in the middle (but it sounds almost too out-of-place Italian-esque and not as fitting to him).
Thanks for your votes!

Having trouble deciding between names for my two identical twins! The story is a sort of archeological, 1920s inspired fantasy, and they’re both heavily involved in their father’s tomb raiding business. Ezair’s the snarky, cocky favorite son with more street smarts than you’d expect and ???’s introverted and observant with daddy issues for days.
Which do you prefer?

Hey, there’s no need to be rude here. [name_m]Just[/name_m] because you don’t find their characters interesting doesn’t mean nobody else does. You haven’t even read the story, so don’t go off about how boring it is.
Also, it’s fiction. It isn’t necessarily supposed to be completely realistic.
Please just remember that there are actual people reading your comments. Writing that you have to say it ‘for the greater good’ doesn’t make it less rude.
Constructive criticism is great, but this seems like it was written more as an insult than anything else.
Think before you post things. Perhaps you genuinely meant this as advice, but it just comes off sounding hurtful.
Seconding what @GhostWriter9580 has said. You didn’t “have to” say what you did. Also, 12 years old is actually the typical age for characters in middle grade stories – it’s far from a “boring” age, and if it doesn’t sound interesting to you it’s probably because you’re not the intended reader demographic for their project.
I recommend checking out the forum rules before using the site; your first post breaks the 2nd rule – remaining respectful and refraining from personal attacks.
Description: The character is a girl who is 24 years old, she has long straight hair with very light orange skin with freckles, has a big pointy nose, she is a bit tall and has a enormously big belly. She wears a no sleeved shirt, blue jeans and wears sandals. She has a distinctive voice, and she’s like a big friendly bear trapped in a woman’s body. She also smells like cheese.
