I have this side character that I really love from my WIP with Eddie, Ellie, and Dante (if you know who those are) who still does not have a name. I’ve just been calling her Lemon Head because she’s an alien with bright yellow skin and freckles. ? Her personality is super underdeveloped so don’t have really anything for you there. Anyway, do any of you have name suggestions? @theloonyone @freedomwriter76

@loopylin. Totally understand you there, girl. Sometimes naming characters is so hard! xD
But anywho, when I saw the pictures I thought of a few names, so here’s a few suggestions! 😀
- Lizzie
- Mia
- Izzy (similar to the first one, trust me, I know. XD)
- Abbie
So…yeah, there’s a few! XD I’ll get back to you if I think of anymore! 😀
October 26, 2022 at 12:50 pm #120459@loopylin ooh names are so much fun!! I luv finding names with MEANING!! That being said I make naming my characters way more complicated then it probably should be, but that’s because the name of a character, for me, holds so much….
im a character driven person, so I want any character I name to have depth…and it should fit!
Sooo here’s some I found!
These are because she has yellow skin so I looked up names meaning yellow or golden-
1. Calla- A yellow-flower, the name means beauty.
2. Amber- a name meaning jewel represented by a golden gemstone
3. Tip- means fair-haired or Golden
4. Zia- Golden Light
These are names that mean Blue (cuz of her hair!)
1. Afina (could call her Fin)- means blueberry. So cute lol!
2. Aqua- Water, sea-blue
3. Azula- Blue
4. Bay- Berry, or sea inlet
5. Meena- Precious blue stone
6. Robin- These birds lay eggs that are blue!
You could also just name her Blue, Bleu, or Blu.
anyway hope these suggestions help!! ?

Anyway, names. I have absolutely no reasoning or meaning behind these, they just popped into my head. ?
1. Eda
2. Something that starts with a J. She seems like a J. Don’t question it. ?
3. Bella
4. Hanna (I’ve noticed that all of the end in a)
5. I dunno, Gwen?
6. Olivia (And back to ending with a)
See if you like any of those!
October 26, 2022 at 2:04 pm #120465This may sound kinda weird, but I would just keep calling her Lemon Head. It very easy to for your readers to remember, and would make sense as a nickname. I listened too a story were one of the side character’s name was Hotdog. It wasn’t her real name, but it was what she went by, and it didn’t take away from her character. I don’t even remember if the author explained why it was her nickname. It wasn’t necessary. So, that’s my two cents.
October 26, 2022 at 6:52 pm #120478@TheLoonyOne @GodlyFantasy12 @freedomwriter76 Thank you guys! Theses are really helpful! ?
I really like Lizzie, Calla, Meena, Robin, and Gwen. Now I have to decide hehe ?
@power That doesn’t sound weird at all. I was thinking of having some characters call her Lemon Head as a joke, but I also like the idea of her just always going by it. (Also the name Hotdog is hilarious ?)⭐️World's Slowest Writer⭐️
