I guess it really depends on when and where your story takes place, but I like the names:
Boy--Andy, Jess, Kyle, Skyler, Johnathan, Caleb, Isaac

Girl--Abby, Sara, Mikaela, Emily, Jessica, Gemma, Jane, Catherine

And, all right, I know its hard to find a character to fit this name, but I've always loved the name Rosabel!. It's unique!.


If none of these fit your characters, go to a baby naming website!. They not only have the most/least popular names, they have all the origins and meanings of the names, too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Do you want brand new names that you think are original like "Shay" or "Zane"!? Or do you want classical names that have been used in literature by greats such as Shakespeare like "Bianca" or "Othello"!? I suggest the name should reflect the period you are writing in!. Othello is more 1500's, Bianca remains a modern implistic name and Zane is a futuristic name!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

What kind of book are you writing!? Because the names of the characters have a lot to do with the subject or the theme of your story!. Take, as an instance, Viktor Frankenstein, the name is perfect for the character because of the type of novel Frankenstein is!.

I suggest you the names of Caesar, Roderick, Portia, Franz and Lukas!.!.!.

Good luck with your book!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

What kind of book!? My only suggestion now would be to go on a site that lists baby names and look at those!.

My personal preference is Algernon!. (It means "with a beard"!)Www@QuestionHome@Com
