    I couldn't find anything like this, but if there is, lock...

    Okay, almost every author has, at least once, had to name a character.

    If you're like me, sometimes you have trouble doing so. This thread is where you can get help naming those stubborn characters Cute

    Think Wouldn't this technically go under character names?

    Aw well, whatever, I need help coming up with a name for a girl who's going back out with her ex boyfriend, and her best friend (a guy) who's about to come out to her, but gets pissed off when he walks in on the two of them making out.

    The girl is slightly airheaded, sweet, and a peace keeper.
    The guy is a fighter, has a quick temper, and is bisexual.

    Help?

    Do you need middle/last names too?

    EDIT - I didn't see that you'd found them.

    M'kay. So I want to write a story about lesbians, one is a girl who thought she was a lesbian but was having doubts. And the other is not out yet, but completely sure of her sexuality. They are around 20 and are both quite feminine and girly. Any thoughts?

    And Clara too. I think I'll change Caitlynn to Kaitlyn so they don't have the same first letter. Thanks guys. Arms

    I need help again.
    Twin boys, 8 years old. Their only real interests are baseball and adventures.
    One I already know is named Roger. I was thinking of calling the other boy Jack, but that's not really clicking for me.

    ^ Max, Nate, Sam... any of those clicking? Wow

    -

    What do you guys think when you hear the name Charlie? Like, what kind of guy do you picture? (I just want to see if others see what I see in my mind. tehe)

    ^ For Charlie, I think of a guy that's really nice, doesn't want to cause anyone harm, is tall and lanky, and loves animals. Kind of like a hippie.

    Maybe something like Brian, George, Martin, Gregory or Liam?
    Rodger's a kind of older name, so it'd sound weird if the other boy had a mainstream, newer name. (In my opinion, at least. Sometimes it can work)

    Yeah, the story was supposed to take place a little bit in the past, so an older name would be preferable.

    I picture a kind of younger guy, with dirty blonde hair and maybe blue or green eyes. Shorter for a man, tall for a boy, and slim, maybe athletic build.

    I agree, but not the slim part, maybe shorter and a bit stocky/average build.

    Truthfully when I hear the name Charlie I think of a tomboyish girl. Like the kind who wouldn't wear stockings or a corset back in the old days and ran barefoot through the meadow and was a daddy's girl.

    Then again maybe I'm just weird. tehe
