Names from books

[smallandneedy.livejournal.com]

Hi guys,
I'm an avid Sims player and right now I have a family who so far have two daughters. I named the first one Eliania and the second one Auraya. The name Eliania is from a fantasy series called The Tawny Man by Robin Hobb. Auraya is taken from the Priestess of the White by Trudi Canavan.

I want to fill up the family with kids that have names from other books and at the same time I want the name to be sort of passable in a real world too (just to fit in with the rest of the neighbourhood) so I was wondering, what are your favorite names from books? I need both boy and girl names :)

I love Sansa and Arya (both f) from the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R. R. Martin :) I've never seen them before I read the books and I would consider using them as names for my children!

I've only ever thought of girls' names, but I adore
Rue (The Hunger Games)
Aletheia (His Dark Materials)

Sandrilene (Sandry, f) and Trisana (f) from Tamora Pierce's Circle universe. Um...I can't think of any other fantasy-type names right now. Hrm...

oh I love those books <3 Reminds me that I could technically use Briar as a boys name for this family.

I really enjoyed the two I had when I was younger, but I never got ahold of the other ones. I almost suggested Briar, but I wasn't sure if it was too normal sounding, except that it's on a boy. Of course, in my opinion, that's the only way to go with that name. ;) That's probably heavily influenced by the fact that that's the first place I heard it.

haha I totally agree. The books were where I first read that nice too! You should really try to get a hold of all of them, they're really good :) I read them all in 2004 when I was 16 and I absolutely loved them.

If I could get away with Kettricken, I'd do it. Unfortunately, our last name is hidden in that name somewhere, so super repetitive. I forgot to revisit the realm of the Elderings since I found out I was expecting! I'll check it out again since I'm not coming up with anything. Gracias for the reminder =]

You're welcome! :) I think Kettricken is my favorite character other than Fitz of course.

My favorites are
Anne
Gilbert
Emma

I think I should have more, but those are my tops.

Guilty pleasure is Sodapop, but even I would think that was taking things too far, LOL!

The Outsiders?

[qtshorty1625.livejournal.com]

Yes.

Kahlan (pronounced, Kay-lin...I actually don't like the spelling ;-/) from The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind

Triana- from The Violin by Anne Rice

And I can't make a list of favorite names from books without including at least one Harry Potter character....I love Sirius :)

welcome
