Naming Book Characters Novels & Stories

Joy! Making High Cliff a kingdom where they started people’s names with vowels was my tricky way of setting it up so that I can fill in more of my alphabetical goals in later books if I turn the story into a series, which I probably will, and hopefully get some more heroes and heroines’ names checked off my list.

"So my preferences don’t extend to the genre of the book, huh?" BaoBao shook his head with big innocent eyes. Luna returned her attention to the book. "Who could I be this time? There's really too little on characters besides the lead couple and Ward." "Hmmm… Maybe it'll be like the previous world? Oh... Then you'll definitely own it!" BaoBao started doing a little dance and wriggle. Luna frowned. "There're too many side characters that appeared just for the plot. It won't be like the previous book." Luna closed the book with a resigned sigh. She had never successfully guessed who she would be in the story thus far.

I say to Dalon, and he gives me a strange look. “I am trying not to judge the name, but I am struggling a bit here.” He says and I have to remind myself that not all people read fantasy like it is a lifeline. “I named him after one of my favorite book boyfriends.” I tell him and he looks horrified now. “I have to compete with fictional men now?” He asks, making me laugh harder. “My big pup is Abraxos.” I say between laughs when I can actually catch my breath. “Where do people get these names? That can’t be a name for a male character in your books.” He says.

Mary pointed out. "My character is–not me. But since you're here, I think I should clear my name now completely. But lets start with the introduction first. As I have said, my character is Isaac Henry, the protagonist of the book 'The Most Wanted Person' and yes–I was indeed came from the same world as yours and used to have the name 'Napoleon'." He started. Mary stared at him in wide eyes. "Napoleon? As in the author of the book?" She asked in complete itshock.

When I started Book One, I would have never thought this would be the direction I’d take in Book Three, especially not when I was writing the first few chapters of my debut, but here we are. I named the female lead Sushmita after my closest friend in the sixth form (she doesn’t know yet), coupled with Alagumalai which means “beautiful mountain” and is part of the name of my favorite English teacher (she doesn’t know either). I almost chickened out and was going to use something generic, but the tale didn’t carry the spark I wanted as I began writing, so I swapped it back. If either of them ever read this, I hope… hm, what do I hope for? I hope they won’t mind and see it as me projecting them

The Beta gave me one last hard look, his gaze heavy with suspicion, before following suit. Now, it was just the two of us. Marcus stood tall, his imposing figure dominating the room. His piercing eyes pinned me in place, and for a moment, I forgot how to breathe. “What's your name?," he asked, his voice low but filled with authority. "I…I…my name?," I stammered, clutching my trembling hands together to stop them from shaking. He raised his brows with a slight smirk playing on his lips. How did I stupidly skip on looking for a befitting name for my new character? I had to think fast. “My name is No...Noses.”

Accidentally the name left my mouth as at that moment my mind was partly clouded with the month-old chicken Biryani. "Strange. What's its name?" I was mute. No name came to my mind. I would have said Tommy, but I had said I owned a Rooster. Even if it was imaginary, Tommy didn't suit him. Her scrutinizing eyes on me, waiting for a quick response. I roamed my eyes, all eyes on me, expecting a name. My eyes when landed on Rddhi's notebook I saw the term Sholay. My wicked brain could only think of one character and I named my imaginary rooster the same.

Whenever a character sends or replies to a message via mobile devices, this is normally used. (" ") : Well known to be inverted commas, this is used to depict speech or words said by the character. You will also notice, that there are some chapters with names. For example; Asteria- The Evil Within May Anderson These are sub-stories that flow with the same storyline as the main book. You may choose to read them or ignore them (it is advised to read them because some sub-stories share more light on the characters and/or the main story.). They may have a different genre.

While everything was cooking I decided to explore a little more of the den which was far more home-like than any I had seen so far. They had a little library of sorts which caught my attention quickly. Every book here was like a record or a list of families, one in particular, which drew me in. " Starfell" the name she used for Nathan which means his real name was Abicus Starfell, I couldn't resist the urge any longer. The first page is signed by Valkia stating the contents inside are the future of all werewolves. A strong statement but will this tell me what I wanna know most.

After a lifetime of thinking I didn’t fit into the world, it was just hard to imagine being out in it. The unknown voice hadn’t come back, and I was gutted. I had expected him to come. I had nicknamed him Pip after one of my favourite literary characters. It felt easier having a name for him. Although logically, he should have been Magwitch because they were both unseen guardians. That was how I saw him, an unseen hand helping me move forward. Except, when I needed him the most, he wasn’t there.
