Help for a story

[requiem-morrow.livejournal.com]

Good Afternoon!

I'm naming a sibling set for a story that I'm working on and need middle name help. Two boys, two girls (no multiples). All were born in the seventies and the mom was on a greek mythology kick at the time.

In birth order:

Jason
Adresteia (nn Stay)
Leander (nn Lee)
Chloe 

Last name at this point is Harker.

Thanks in advance!

Jason and Chloe are more common names and Leander and Adresteia are not, so for that fact I don't think that they go together as a sibset at all. Not that it should matter but 2 or your names have nn's and the other do not so I don't think that the names complement each other as a sibset.

The reason there are two "normal" names and two less common names is actually part of the story. I don't agree with the nn thing, I know lots of sib sets where some have nn and some don't. The names suit the personalities of the characters, although Chloe (which was much less common in the seventies than it is today) may become Kalliope or Cassiopeia. Thanks for the feedback, though!

Definitely keep Chloe as a name. It fits with the rest of the names and I can just "feel" the personality differences from these four. Great names, should be a good story :)
