Any ideas for book character names?

Question

I'm writing a book and i'm in need of some character names. Any neat names will do, especially unusual and old fashioned names. I'll take any middle or last names, too. Thanx!

Answer 1

Without knowing anything about your characters it's kind of hard to come up with names but what I can help you with is a place where you find what you're looking for.

and Lila Elizabeth Black

idk for boys....

hope i helped atleast a little bit :)

Answer 4

if i were you i would go on a baby name website, there you can find hundreds of unusual names! :)

Answer 5

i'm copying and pasting this answer from my last answer...i think this might help you too :) let me know what you decide to name your character

(btw, these are just female names. male names are usually general and pretty easy to find, so the male names list could go on and on and on)

*Sophia (or Sofia)

*Madeleine

Clare

Charlotte

Lily (or Lilian)

Vivienne

*Adair

*Leighton

*Meave (pronounced Mave, like wave with an M, could also be spelled Maeve)

Elisabeth (always classic, but a bit too ordinary)

Lucille

Audrey

Olivia

Virginia

*Cecily

Catherine

Victoria

Blair

*Scarlett

Faye

*Evangeline

Selena

(starred* ones are my personal favorite and recommended)

Also, for last names, you could do something fancy like:

Westerveldt

Bourne-Cecil

Delancy

Beauvais

Sinclair

Blackwelder

Worthington

*Kelly (personally, i love this last name. it's very classic and could flow smoothly with any name, i.e. "Adair Kelly")

Waldorf

Dorland

Wallace

Leicester

The best middle names are usually something simple like :

Rose

Elisabeth

Clare (or Claire)

Marie

Anne

i didnt steal this from another person...what i meant was that i wrote this answer for another question, but im reusing it for this question :)

Baby name books are a really great resource. They will give you meanings, celebrities with the name, how common they are, just a lot of information that you might want to consider.

There's a lot of websites out there too:
