Gothic Names Novels & Stories

“I don’t understand.” She smiled. “Travanni reminds me of Transylvania, home of Dracula. Mortimia, well, Mort translates into dead. Mia translates into me. Dead me.” He chuckled now. It was a nice sound. “I see. Are there any other siblings with strange names?” “I have an older brother. He got stuck with Count. Again with the vampire theme. Count Dracula. She said it means noble but we’re on to her.” Shut up, she ordered herself but then the New Species laughed. She relaxed. “She’s weird but we love her.”

“How do you differentiate between them and the second generation?” "They all trainned us, so all second-gen know them. Besides, they have weird names: Gotham, Ghost Crow, Shadow, Mist, Fire, Scar, Poison, etc. It's like a den of vipers. It's not their real names, but even they don't remember their actual names." "What about you?" Her eyes hold mine, hostage, appearing darker late at night. "Is Ethan your real name?" “It is. This is the name my mother gave me.” “How about your last name? Is it Hunter?”

Hell no, as far as no one saw my reflection then I had absolutely no reason to fright out because the magic I had applied in the spell of glamour was extremely powerful and it could live even till I did. "His son, Alaric Bathory!!" He chuckled. "Don't tell me your mind never went there, Ms. Elisabeta Trenton?? He sneered as he chuckled. And yes, before I forget. I was bearing an outrageous name, Trenton. My real name is Naomi Bathory and not Elisabeta Trenton. I scoffed as he addressed me as Elisabeta Trenton. I could wait to see the shock that would overwhelm him the moment he gets to know that I was the wife of the man of he that killed his family and all these while, he sold himself out t

“The bed is reportedly very large.” “Not helpful, Victor.” ----- Ashford Estate is absurd. Stone towers, ivy-covered walls, and actual gargoyles flanking the entrance. “You grew up here?” I whisper as we pull through the gates. “Summers and holidays.” “Adrian. There are *gargoyles.*” A long pause. “I named them as a child.” “Tell me.” “Gerald and Patricia.” I press my hand over my mouth. He looks pained, which only makes it worse.

He was glad she approved. “By the way, what sort of name is Day? Ouuu, please tell me that you have a twin named Night?” Her eyes twinkled with a mischievous light and Daykan was intrigued to see this side of her. “Ha-ha, very funny. It’s an ancient name from a practically forgotten language. My full name is Daykan Greystone.” “Wow, pretty fancy. Nice to meet you Daykan.” “You too Naomi. Now if you would follow me, I’ll take you to Susan so you can fill out the membership form.”

“ Yeah, you said they are the recantations of Hindley's ancestors?” Daine looked left and right and took Jenna to a corner. “ Yes dear, your children's names are the 4As in the book of Hindley, even if they don't remember their past memories, they are the ones, who are why the black axes are afraid of them due to their betrayal with Hindley.” “ Wait…the ancient names….” Jenna mumbled. Archie has once said it's the 4As in the book of Hindley…” But my kids are triplets…. Adan, Adian, Alan…”

“You did a great job.” “Thank you.” She smiled. “What are you going to name them?” Mom asked. “I was thinking Elwin and Elara, to go with the family name, what do you think?” I asked Rhea. “I like it.” She grinned. “How about Ryan and Roxanne for their middle names?” “Elwin Ryan Borbon-Anjou and Elara Roxanne Borbon-Anjou, that's beautiful.” “Just by looking at them, I can tell they are going to be troublemakers. You guys surely have your work cut out for you because you are going to be going through double the trouble.” Esteban laughed and his wife hit him on his back.

Alex asked. "We haven't been able to agree on one," Tom said. "Not all of us have perfect naming skills like you, Mr. Johnathan Alexander Swift," Brooke said with mock sincerity. "Some of that my hands were tied. It had to be a J to fit with Janice's theme and Alexander is a family name, so I really wanted to show that." "Yeah, yeah. The perfect name just falls into place for you. Not all of us are so talented." "I've got it." Lexi jumped to her feet interrupting all of them. She walked over to Brooke's side and looked down at the newborn. "How about Carmen?"

“She sometimes leaves her mind link open so I overhear her thoughts.” “That’s… mind-blowing.” “I know… what is that?” Kael paused, his gaze fixed on a scroll that had rolled off the pile. As he unrolled it, a familiar chill filled the air and he stiffened. The temperature in the room dropped instantly. “Thorne,” “What is it?” “Remind me of her last name once again.” The Beta sat, scratching his head. “I can’t remember. It starts with Dra—Dracula? No. Dragon?” He snorted, “Obviously no. Draven? No, that’s yours. Dra-

“You still won’t tell me the gender, will you?” “Not a chance.” She groaned dramatically. “You’re cruel.” “But imaginative,” I said proudly. “If it’s a girl, I’m thinking… Seraphina Moonlight Augustus.” “Absolutely not,” she snorted. “That sounds like a stage name for a Victorian illusionist.” I grinned. “Okay, okay. What about Persephone?” She stared at me. “You want our daughter to be named after the queen of the underworld?” “It’s powerful.”
