So, for hardcore fantasy, I’m always amazed that almost no one seems to know that the big celebration (immediate win party) at the end of the war for Lord of the Rings takes place on the Fields of Cormallen. So, maybe something like Cormalline, if it’s a woman, or even Cor, for short, for a male.

Brock, for the male rogue.

I am offering my top two names that I believe would fit the world of Retha.

Rowen – “Little Red Head” / A type of tree with Red Berries. (Either Gender)
Xandria (zan-dree-uh) – Protector/Defender of Man. I love how different the spelling is and the underline meaning. (Female) (yes, it is my name but it does not change the fact that it is a wonderful name and uncommon)

For the swordsman I picked the name Buvo! It sounds epic 😄 And for the gender neutral hunter I really like the name Finley (that name also fits for the bard too!) thank you!!!

Konk – Male Rogue, master of dual sword combat, Chaotic Good alignment, kind of a robin hood of sorts type of character, stands up for those who can’t stand up for themselves, regardless of who you are. Was my first character back when World of Warcraft came out. 😀

Another suggestion if these are “player names” and not npc’s is Balzac, name of a city, but also a clever way around naming policies for the immature male player 😉

Jean

For the fantasy name:

KiroKitsune
(The name is Japanese and the first part means lord. The second part means fox and refers to Japanese folklore)

For the female scout:

Aurum Panther
(mainly because that’s been my Xbox user name since I was nine years old. At the time, I used the name aurum instead of gold mainly because I thought it sounded cooler :/

It dawned on me last night while I was trying to go to sleep that “Gregorian Chant” would be a really funny name in a video game (if the late-night humor doesn’t translate, sorry about that).

And since I’m on a musical kick, I’m nominating “Metronome” as an awkward but music-related name for a female bard.

I absolutely love the name Bellalyse for females, I use it for every game I play! As for a really fantasy name, I always wanted a character named Eilanym.

My friends and I played a LOT of MMORPGs and we ended up using two names repeatedly: Minstrel Cycle and Shooty D’Arrow, :D. So if you’re willing to accept bad puns for your bard and hunter/scout/ranger, I’d love to see one of us in your story!

Brendan Salter- male character
Just a strong male name combo I like

FrigynSkadi- mystic, really fantasy-ish name.
A mash up of three Norse goddesses. Frigga goddess of beauty, love and marriage. Sigyn goddess of loyalty and faith. And Skadi the “snowshoe” goddess; a goddess of winter and hunting in the mountains.
Nicknames can range from something “normal” like Adi or something more silly like Rigy.

TinyJellyfishOfDoom – Pekipaki is the Tongan name of a stealthy tiny blue jellyfish in the South Pacific that blends so well into the ocean that you don’t see it until it is too late. Sneaky little buggars. You don’t even see them on the beach until it is too late!

MadammeFweeba- Fweeba Wibbith is the name my nephews have me because they could not say ‘Silipa Elizabeth’. I have used it as my name a time or two while gaming because it still makes me smile.

Pekipaki- Tongan name of a tiny blue jellyfish that has a huge sting. You never see these guys coming! They blend so well with the ocean, and even on the sand they’re so small you end up sitting on these without realizing it. Lol. Could be fun for a hunter or a rogue.

Talamasina – Tongan name of a Princess, kind of translates to ‘story of white ‘ or ‘telling the white’. Could be a fun name for a mystic or a bard.

🙂 Happy name choosing to you!

Mystic – Mnemosyne (it might be slightly easier to drop the first ‘M’) is the Greek Muse of Memory. Mystics are usually seen as people who can understand the future, but I heard it suggested that they can do only because they know and understand the past.

Swordsman: Edmund Ironside; real Anglo-Saxon king, known as the warrior prince. He was really cool, but had a gruesome/humorous end…

I like The Horse and His Boy too!!! It’s just sad that no one films it bc the Pevensies are only only in one scene! 🙁 it has intrigue, adventure, and a “wilder” Aslan. Sometimes I wonder if it would have been more popular out of the set as a stand alone.

Percival Blackdragon – male swordsman (this was my LOTRO main for years and would be awesome if it was a book character) Gremlyn Pursestrings – Male Rouge – seems like an appropriate rouge name.

Suggestions: Aurora for any female and Raven for any male. And a comment about naming – Please make all the names very dissimilar. I read fast and HATE it when an author names two or more characters very similar names. Chuck and Chase. Mary and Maria. Jose and Joe. Areile and Araible. Evan and Eva. Unless they are twins or from the same tribe or clan or something, then I pay attention, but the rest of the time I just register the look of the name and go on. Later I am into a scene and get yanked out because the character is doing something that makes no sense. Oh, that isn’t Miles, it is Mike. Now, who is Mike? Help! And fantasy books can be the worse because so many of the names are made up and there is no associations to each in my brain. So, PLEEEEASE, help a reader. Thanks. PBB

Oh, I have the same problem!!!
“Sauron” vs “Saruman” caused me no end of confusion the first time through LOTR…

Oh this is true with my dyslexic brain too. I read super fast but struggle with Proper Nouns can’t read Russian novel because too many names are the same shape.

Sparkly Unicorn- weird fantasy name
Hunter- hunter

I thought they would be pretty ironic…

I think Hunter could be a great name for a non-hunter too. Oh the comedy of explaining over and over that you associate with something completely different from your namesake 🙂

Revived Name Game

Update: The naming contest has closed so comments on this post have been turned off. Thanks to everyone who participated! The winners will be announced in a separate post.


It’s the last week in the Summer Reading event, and while we still have an awesome giveaway going this week from the incredible author Honor Raconteur, I’m running a slightly different contest as well.

The Revived, the third book in my A. M. Sohma series “Second Age of Retha” is on track to launch in mid September, but I wanted you guys to be part of it, so I thought it would be awesome if I gave you all a chance to submit character name! That’s right, a handful of minor characters in The Revived are waiting to be named.


Character Naming Contest

The contest starts today and lasts through Friday, August 31. Each reader can only submit once, and each submission can contain a maximum of two names total. If you submit more than two names, you’ll be automatically disqualified. (This is to give everyone a fair and equal chance, and to ensure that the winners have read the rules!) Submission is easy–just leave your suggestions in the comments section. (Some necessary legal stuff is down below, too.)


Here’s a few details about some of the names I’m looking for:

  1. female mystic

  2. male spellbinder

  3. a REALLY fantasy-ish name of either gender (We’re talking hardcore fantasy here)

  4. female scout

  5. male swordsman

  6. female bard

  7. male rogue

  8. a gender neutral name for a hunter


Once the Summer Reading Event ends, I’ll post the winning names! Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy this last week of giveaways, recommendations, and book fun. Thanks for reading, Champions! _________________________________________________

If one of your suggested names is chosen, you are not entitled to rewards, royalties, or wages, monetary or otherwise. By offering suggestions for names, you’re agreeing to contribute the name for the book, movie, audiobook, and any other version or form of the book without any sort of reward, wage, or royalty. While there are eight characters that need names, K. M. Shea reserves the right to adjust the number of chosen names to her discretion.
