    Name for character?

    Discussion in 'Character Development' started by Adam Bolander, Mar 22, 2020.

    What do you think would be a good name for a woman with the power to turn into and control water? I was going to go with Riptide, but she's more of a calm and controlled character so I decided that didn't fit. Any ideas?

    Jen. Or Amy. Why not keep it simple? That's my approach to naming characters. A common name juxtaposed an interesting narrative can be quite the combination.

    You could punt for her super-hero name. Aqua Queen?

    Because it's a world where superheroes/villains have taken over the world, so people of importance are given superhero-ish names (titles?) as a symbol of their position.

    Somebody else suggested Aquarius, and I think I like the sound of that.

    not a pro, yet very curious
    because it is a woman, what about Aquaria or Aquariam?

    For some reason my first thought was Molly for the reasons that @deadrats cites.

    or you could go for comedy - Ripley (ripple-y), Lily, Willow...
