@destiny Strangely, Needsaname sounds super cool!
For the boys’ names I have a few suggestions but I’m not sure what boy they would fit better: Iravian, Blair, Cian, Eryk, Rend, and Valeo.
For the girl’s name you could consider: Noelli, Victori, Lorelyn, and Jayce.

Hey, everyone! I have a horse that needs a name, and seeing as I’m not real great at names…yeah. He’s a chestnut gelding, big but still refined. Along the lines of an Andalusian. (The characters in my book are getting spoiled when it comes to their horses.) Any ideas?
February 22, 2018 at 8:47 pm #64486@waterlily Your description of the horse made me think of the word “majesty” because he’s big, but refined. So I looked up words in several languages that meant “majesty,” and here’s what I came up with. 😀 See if you like any of them:
Moheem
Nui
Majiraan

@rochellaine Thanks for the names! I’m going with Paduka; it seems to fit both the horse and my story. Plus, it’s fun to say.

Peri can be a nickname, right? What are some names that can have a nickname of Peri?

You can pronounce it however you want.
February 23, 2018 at 12:14 pm #64523@dekreel The only ones I could think of are Peridot, (A gemstone) or Periwinkle? (this one isn’t a real name. Well its the name of a shade of purple, and a flower. But I’ve always thought it would make a cute name for a character.) 🙂 Or maybe her full name could be Peri and her nickname could be Pearberry- Actually maybe that’s weird. Forget that last part! 😀
and I was so confused
February 23, 2018 at 12:22 pm #64525@waterlily Glad you liked it!
@dekreel My first thought was that it could be a nickname for Pearl or Margaret (which means pearl). Some others I found were Perenelle, Peridot, Persis, Pearline, and Perecia.There’s actually a thread I found somewhere on a baby-naming site which I’ll link to in case you want to wade through it for more ideas. I like Pearl best, I think. 😀

February 23, 2018 at 1:02 pm #64531@dekreel Is your character a girl?
All I can think of are names like Peregrine (for a boy), Parrianne and Perris (those aren’t that good, I know). 😉

February 23, 2018 at 1:26 pm #64539@ingridrd Yes it’s a girl. … Can Peregrine be a girl’s name?
@rochellaine That’s funny — I was JUST on that site! Unfortunately I didn’t find names I like :-/You can pronounce it however you want.
February 23, 2018 at 3:22 pm #64546@dekreel There’s a movie (which I believe is based on a book) where one of the characters is named Miss Peregrine. It could work as a girl’s name I believe.
"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."
February 23, 2018 at 3:33 pm #64547@skredder I’ve seen that movie! Unfortunately I’m pretty sure it’s her last name
You can pronounce it however you want.
February 23, 2018 at 3:49 pm #64548@dekreel I actually had a character nicknamed Peri once upon a time. Her full name was Perdita. A few other suggestions:
Perrine (This is a French name, and I think it sounds beautiful.)
Persephone (Greek Mythology)
I also had the thought that you could look for names that don’t begin with P, but have a “per” somewhere in them such as Juniper.And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
