Top Ten Character Names I Love or Top Ten Unusual Character Names
1.
I really like the name of the hero in this one; Torin McLeren. It has a certain unique ring to it.
2.
When I first read Dragon Bound, it was the heroines first name that really drew me to the story. Pia Giavanni.
3.
Lady Calpurnia Hartwell--even though she goes by Callie (which is a sweet name) I love her full name, definitely more original.
5.
I have to say that this is my favorite series by Banks. I don't like all of her books, but she has done wonders with these scottish historical's. In this story I really liked the names used, but most especially Mairin- which is a name I have always liked immensely.
6.
The Wolf and the Dove was one of the first medieval romances I read, and I liked both of the names used. Wulfgar and Aislinn and I just love how well they go together too!!
7.
Dark Desire is a very stimulating read, and ever since I read it (or I prefer listening to the audiobook), The name of Sheay of the heroine, made me fall in love with it. I may even name my future daughter (if I am gifted with one) of that name, I love the spelling and the pronunciation and the uniqueness of it when I first listened to it. It is a bit more common now, but I still adore it.
8.
Born in Sin is a story I haven't read in a long while, however I always thought the name of the heroine, Caledonia was very different. I always enjoy it when a author uses a uncommon name for her characters. It adds character to the story.
9.
Even though I haven't read this one, this book is on my list next to get at my local library. As I was thinking about another unique character name, I remembered Wicked Surrender. Scher Martin is one of the more unusual names, and the first one I have seen used, so its always a delight when that happens.
10.
In Lady of Desire, Jacinda, is used for the heroine's character name. I believe I have seen this name used before but not very often, its more rare but does get used. I do love it, it tends to roll of the tongue quite easily.
