Heroic Names Novels & Stories

She chuckles and nods, “Do you have any name suggestions? Two boys, who’ll be princes, right?” He nods, “So, we need strong names. Like Leonidas… or Perseus… or Hector.” He chuckles, “You have a thing for Greek names?” She shrugs, “Leo, Percy, Heck. Okay, maybe not Hector, but still.” He chuckles then nods and thinks, then he looks at her, “Would you consider Simon or David?” She furrows her brows and looks at him,

“Ties deeper than most alphas in this region. And not just family connections. He’s… respected there.” Kane’s eyes narrowed. “Respected how?” Carter shifted uneasily. “He fought in the defense of the Eastern Border during the Night Siege. Saved a caravan of diplomats—wolf and human—when most would’ve run. He was awarded the title of ‘Hero’. Some even call him the ‘Young Shield’ over there” Kane felt a muscle twitch in his cheek. He was kinda impressed. Dom never ceased to amaze him, but right now eh hated hearing Dom praised; hated hearing that name.

Every damn time. So we made a deal. Each pregnancy, one mate gets to pick all three names. Hermes picked first—hence the very Greek names: Brison, Calix, and Demetrios. This time, it’s Alex’s turn. He has a theme. He’s picked the names. But he won’t tell anyone what they are. To keep track, we decided to go alphabetically. Alex is “A.” Hermes will take “H.” Jake and I both cover “J.”

Quintin and his subordinate, a general named Honorius Harkin, were known as the Twin Dragons of the Northern Frontier. Honorius was a genius strategist, while Quintin was unmatched in bravery. Together, they formed a formidable duo that strikes fear into the hearts of any enemies. As long as they were around, breaking through the defenses and dividing the Dragon Dynasty would be a challenging task for the various nations in the northwest.

She kissed him again, and he laughed—warm, genuine, filling the room. “Summer,” he said, turning to me, “like warmth after winter. You really did name her after Helios, didn’t you?” I furrowed my brow and shook my head. “No—I didn’t name her after your brother.” “Oh. I just thought… well.” He scratched the side of his eyebrow, looking sheepish. “You know our names are all from Greek mythology, right?” I nodded. The Gallaghers were famous for it—Hades, Apollo, Artemis. All pulled straight from ancient legends.

“Because she’ll glow. Even when it’s dark.” Alexander looked at Isla like the universe was folding in on itself. “And your brothers?” he asked. Sophie’s expression turned serious again. “They need powerful names,” she announced. “Like daddy Alex, because one day, they’ll help him protect you, mom, me and our Selene.” Alexander swallowed hard, his eyes misting this time. “What kind of powerful?” he asked quietly. Sophie thought for a moment. “Leon,” she said. “Because lions are brave.” Then she glanced at Alexander. “And Atlas.”

And then coming closer, he continued his orders. "Kriss Emmett Persephone Sage- The Phoenix Azen David- Red Rain Randall Quint - Earth’s Wrath Zen Parez- Intoxicator Alaiya Miller- Glistening Snow.” He called out the name of the title holders. Enunciating loudly, “To fight this war and bring me victory at all cost!"

“He is here, Alpha,” Mark said. Alpha nodded slightly and gestured for them to come in. And then, the old man walked in. “I am glad you came,” Kieran said. “This is an honor, Alpha. A true honor.” The old man’s voice was steady, filled with reverence as he bowed slightly, his gray hair falling over his forehead. His name was Hector—one of the eldest in the pack, a man who had seen countless moons and battles. Across the room, Alpha Kieran stood tall, his gaze cold and unwavering. His presence alone commanded silence, but his words carried weight far heavier than his stance.

‘If he figures it out, I’ll talk to him later. It wasn’t that Noah didn’t trust his friend with keeping a secret, he believed that Hero didn’t have to know about it in the first place. At least he would take the burden of lying off his friend’s shoulders. “What’s your name?” asked Hero, the silence lasting longer than it should. “I’m Hero Van Eych,” he continued, holding out his hand. “I’m Ophelia Gregor,” she said, introducing her full name. Instantly realizing the stupid mistake. If Hero was a little bit good in history, he would instantly know what the name Gregor meant. But Noah doubted that Hero would catch on from just her family name.

I laughed and he seemed remarkably glad to see me do it. — Your mother, Juliette Broz, a Polish woman who came to live in the United States at the age of eighteen, chose the name Hera because she is the Greek goddess of protection of the family and marriage and I chose Nix, it's strange, what I know, but it means goddess of the night. Julie wanted you to be special so what better than to be special with weird names? — Seeing it like this, I even like it — it was true, who wouldn't like to have the name of a goddess? — And what is Winter?
