Thread: Need help deciding a Name.

Hey I need help deciding a name for a character. She is a twenty something Personal Assistant to a princess. Has lots of ambition.

My first idea was Melanie Mallet. But I felt Melanie was kind of an old fashioned name. And I wanted to save old-fashioned names for royalty and people with old-fashioned ideals. So I want something that sounds modern, but not exotic.

My second Idea was Vanessa Brown. Modern Right. But I still don’t know do you like Vanessa Brown or do you have a better idea for this Personal Assistants name.

I need to have a First name that can stand-alone. What people close to her call her. But also a Last name that can be formal, “Miss. ____"

Hmm. With her parents' cultural backgrounds, education, circle of friends, the influence they had from the place they're living when they're expecting her, their way of thinking, what would they name her? If you're her parent with this background and in this condition, what would you name her?
