Any name suggestions for my character?





Also, do you like the ones I’ve named already?

My main character is the one I need a name for.
My story starts off when she’s very young, around 3 or 4, and skips throughout her life, going to when she’s 8, then 12, then 17, and then ending when she’s 29.
She’s got dark auburn hair that looks red in the sun, and blue-grey eyes with long eyelashes. She’s very pretty, with very pale skin. She’s also very intelligent, with a genius level IQ. She’s a little odd, personality wise, because she doesn’t have very good social skills because she’s so bright. The few friends she does have, she’s very close to. She very sweet and loving with people she’s known for awhile, but doesn’t get close to others easily. She has abandonment issues from when her parents ran out on her, and she ended up in the care of her uncle, who abused her.

Halia Cormier: My main character’s best friend. Halia is pretty, but not as pretty as my main character. She’s got blonde hair and dark brown eyes. Halia’s known my main character almost her entire life because they were neighbors until they were 12. She’s extremely extroverted, and she loves to talk. As a teen, Halia loves going on dates, playing the field, and she often encourages my main character to come out of her shell a little. She’s also a brilliant violinist.

Jack Robertson: Jack is a guy my main character meets when she starts college. They both have the same goal: to become psychiatrists. He wants to be a forensic psyciatrist, while she wants to be a pediatric psychiatrist. They end up becoming good friends, but he’s in love with her the entire time. He’s very sweet, but very outgoing like Halia. Jack has dark brown hair and green-brown eyes.

And then theres:

Lillie Marsden: A friend of Jack’s. She’s very bubbly around good friends, but is otherwise shy. She ends up becoming a collegue of my main character because she becomes a pediatrician in the same hospital my main character works at. She has curly red hair and brown eyes.

Caleb Harrison: The love of Halia’s life. They meet in college, where he’s on a journalism scholarship and she’s on a music scholarship. He loves to write, and dreams of being an author, but he’s just sticking with newspaper while he’s in college. He’s got curly light brown hair and green eyes.

What do y’all think? Any ideas for my main character?
Thanks for all the great suggestions, guys! I’m loving Aislinn so far, but I could use a few more suggestions.

Also, what do you mean by western, Dini-Chan? I’m curious!
I really like Lacie!

Also, I’m trying not to use names that people I know have. Sorry if it seems like I’m being choosey, but I’m looking for something uncommon, but not crazy.

    Ooh the characters sound really cool! And I love the names you’ve come up with. Only thing is, there’s no non-Western names! Not that you have to, but I find multiculturalism interesting in stories. But anyway, here are some names:

    Wynter (a little unusual, but I like it.)
    Grace
    Sonia/Soniya
    Abigail
    Madison
    Alyssa
    Paige
    Savannah
    Sofia
    Brooke/Brooklyn

    And you can always check baby names websites. That’s what I do when I’m writing a story. Hope I helped! XD

    Remington (nickname: Remi)
    Carrie
    Gina

    last names:
    Conner(s)
    Westley
    Hawson
    Raff

    And the other character names are awesome! ;D

    hope I helped!
