Want to help me name some characters? I'm in the process of writing a fictional story and I need some names. I used to struggle over names, so much so that in the past I could not get my story out until I had a name. As those who write fiction know, names will often emerge as a character's personality develops. Therefore, sometimes you have to write the character before you get her name. Now, I tend to give all my characters generic names while I'm writing them and develop them as I go before I give them their forever-name. My girls are always Jane, my boys are always Jackson, and my dogs are always Dog.
I need help naming the following:
- Female: my main female character is a business professional; creative, artistic, personally conservative and socially liberal. She's lonely and sexually frustrated.
- Male: my main male is undefined at this point, but I'm looking for something that suggests inner darkness and negative qualities. He is not an antagonist.
- Female character's dog: companion, protector; gender unassigned.
These characters are all very raw and naked so far. If you have some names to offer, please email them to jade@autumnweave.com.
Thanks!

From your description your female character's name should be Carie. ;-)
There are totally not enough sexy red-heads in this story!
