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.
You will love what you spend time with.
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 😆)🎵It takes a long time to wait 🌻
