Character Name Ideas Novels & Stories

The children sat with unusual seriousness while May lowered herself comfortably into a chair. “All right,” Damien said. “Let’s hear the ideas.” Aria raised her hand like she was in school. “I think her name should be something pretty and soft. Like... Bella. Or Lily. Or Angel.” Aiden immediately shook his head. “No. She should have a strong name. Like Zara. Or Nova. Or Captain.” May laughed so suddenly she had to hold her stomach. Damien covered his grin with his hand. “Captain?” he repeated. “For confidence,” Aiden said.

She yelled. "You can't blame me for wanting a special name for my baby." I muttered. "There are so many special names! Well, you have me now. What about Voldemort?" I looked at her waiting for her to laugh at the joke but she kept a straight face. "You're joking, right?" "Of course not! I like the name, it's cute." She glared at me like I just stole her firstborn child. "Well, I obviously don't like it." "Okay, what about Brogan, Talon, Chardonnay, Neo, Brent, Luigi, Carlo, Smith, Thomas, Robert?"

“Let’s start throwing out ideas and see what sticks.” “Okay,” Isolde said, leaning forward with interest. “If they’re dragons, maybe something powerful like Pyra and Draven.” “Or if they’re wolves,” Cheyenne added, “something classic and moonlit. Like Lune or Fenric.” Tora covered her face with her hands. “You guys are going to give them identity crises before they’re even born.” Chelsea was already on a roll. “If one’s a boy, I vote we name him Brimstone. Brim for short.”

Clay nodded at my phone. “Hold your horses.” I rolled my eyes, pulling up the list. “Okay, the others in the cartoon movie were Slightly, Nibs, Chubby, and Twins.” I frowned, not liking any of those. “Ah, here we go. In Hook, there was also Ace. But that’s a no go since that’s my brother. Thud Butt is also a no. We aren’t insulting the puppies.” I shook my head. “Pockets could be cute. Don’t Ask, Too Small, Latchboy, and No Nap were the others. I don’t like those names.” I wrinkled my nose.

’ ‘Rubber,’ I suggested. ‘Not bad, but has other connotations. Friction Man, or Potholer. I’m getting into this now. Bottom Boy, Chimney Sweep, Cracker. Be classical. Zeus, or biblical ... Onan. No, he may not get that one. Ask him what he would like to be called and think of a name for yourself. Go for Mary Magdalene or Venus. Choose a woman known for her promiscuity.’ ‘Fanny Hill?’ ‘Excellent. Just Fanny will do. It says it all. Kitty is another one.’

I frown at his back and then I catch Dean's eyes. "Did you hear that?" "Yeah," he says, "It's obviously important for him. But I like the modern name thing a lot more. I would make a whole new name for my kid." "Yeah? Like what?" I ask, trying not to get too anxious about Aiden's weird energy. "Like Aximia or... Devanco," he says. It's so bad, all I can do is laugh, "I want unique stuff, even names. Aiden is the traditional one, not me."

“Have you?” “Only every day.” Nathan smirked down at me. “You go first.” “Okay,” I said with a laugh. “Adam.” “Hmm… Too basic,” Nathan said. “How about Leonard? Leo for short.” I made a face. “No way am I naming my child Leonard. What about… Henry?” “Oh, so Leonard isn’t good enough, but Henry is okay?” Nathan teased gently. “As if that’s any less old-fashioned.” My cheeks tinged a slight pink blush as I realized that Nathan was right. “Okay, okay,” I said softly. “What about Alvin?”

"Okay, say we have a boy… what would you name him?" A naughty grin crossed his face. "Arcadius jnr." I blinked. "Absolutely not. We are not naming our child some ancient Roman-sounding name." "Hey," he whined. "What's wrong with Arcadius? It's a strong name." I gave him a look of disbelief. "He could shorten it to Cade," he offered hopefully. "Not happening." Zephyr leaned back, grinning. "Alright then, what do you have in mind?" I paused. "Maybe Jamie, or…"

“Oh, I’m sorry, are you giving birth? Would you like to push a seven-pound human out of your body and then decide her name?” He smirked. “I mean, if I could, I’d name her something cool. Something powerful.” “Oh, God,” I groaned. “Here we go, bring your idea, you're the baby daddy you too must have thought of some names.” “I’m thinking something like Valeria, it's beautiful.” I blinked. “Valeria?” “It sounds like a queen’s name.” He grinned. “Or a warrior princess. You know, like a woman who can wield a sword and take over kingdoms.” he laughed at my facial expression.
