Which name do you like best and why?

I think it depends on what context and for whom. If you want the name for a novel figure, then I would definitely see that it fits into time and in the backgrounds of the figure and possibly also to the parents' house.

After all, the parents give the name.

And while a name like 'Eliza' as a short form of 'Elizabeth' is actually very universal (you can see in the 18th). Take a century or today… you can actually take it with any kind of family, because it's very mainstream and ultimately you don't even have to limit it to the English language room ('Even if 'Eliza Schmitz' might sound a bit strange… but that's what it's gonna be), is something like 'Saphira' or 'Neela' already something VERY special.

In this… I think a lot is related to the character itself. With the backgrounds, the parents' house etc., so it might be good to find out and look 'what I want' and if you have THAT then you can find a name that fits perfectly for the character.

For once among us: As long as the name does not fit, MUST be the name I would give to my baby if I get one. It can even be that a name fits perfectly with the character, although I don't like it.

I don't put a book on the side because the grandma is called 'Ingeborg', even though I don't like the name at all.

The person who has to deal most with the name is you as author of the whole thing. And accordingly, I would simply take the one who likes DIR best for several really matching names.

I wish you all the best and fun in creating a character 🙂
