Question:

I need some advice on character names in a story/novel I am writing...?

3 stoner guys in a "psudo-pop punk band":
THE DRUMMERis kind of chubby and lazy, parents are hippies. He has a bunch of brothers and sisters. A nickname would be cool too.
THE LEAD SINGER lives in an upper/middle class neighborhood with his sister, father, and step mother. He's skinny and the "most attractive".
THE BASSIST is the main character and lives with his mother (his parents are divorced). Goes through a big transition throught the story-going from the pop-punk lifestyle to the indie lifestyle. Wishes he could go back to when he was young and innocent.
A BLACK GIRL who the bassist falls for. Plain-looking, but naturally pretty, and is the one who shows him the Indie lifestyle. Wears a lot of (non-slutty) skirts. A bit of a loner, but really cool nonetheless.
THE BASSIST'S MOTHER. They get along well. Went through a reletively easy divorce about a year ago. Plain looking, in her 30's.
THE LEAD SINGER'S SISTER. She's a 15 y.o. emo girl who the bassist makes out with.

normally i would suggest you come up with your own names, but these are just suggestions, and i had fun coming up with them.

D- Marley Halifax (come on, his hippy parents named him Marley after BOB, and he's a stoner- no need for a nickname)

LS- Adrian "Ace" Danvers (Ace according to "marijuana slang dictionary" means a marijuana cig)

B- Gregory "Ganga" Vickers (ganga shouldnt need a def lol)

BG- Adia Johnson

BM- Marion Vickers

Sis- Carrie Danvers
