Heather and Amber.

they're my second-cousins. I'm not fond of either name but as far as sibsets go, I think they're great together. they're kinda matchey in a "things found in nature" sort of way but not SO matchey as to be two plants or two kinds of rock.

Character naming help!

[imamaryanne.livejournal.com]

It's that time of year when I start outlining my nanowrimo novel. I need some help naming my protagonist and his sister.

They are in their early thirties (guy is maybe 32, sister a year or two older), so they would have been born late seventies, very early eighties. Born in California to parents who were slightly hippie-ish and also surfers. I don't want any over the top Hippie names, but these are parents who definitely wouldhave bypassed Jessica and Michael.

I was thinking Brynn for the sister. Maybe Willow? I'm completely stumped for the guy. I keep coming back to Lance for some reason, but I just loathe that name.

I'm usually great at naming characters, just not this time.

Thanks!

Are embed videos supposed to go under a cut here? I didn't know so I put it under a cut anyway.

SO!

Under this lj-cut (if I did it correctly) is a Youtube video by the vlogbrothers on How to Name Your Baby Properly!

Watch and be amazed!
