[hale81]

Hi All,

Does anyone have any good names please

I love the name Ariya (not sure how it's spelt, pronounced Ar-ee-ya) from the young girl out of Game of Thrones Plus her character was ace - strong & independent!

Do you want girl or boy names? Or both?

 

[hale81]

Arya and Brienne from the books A Song of Ice and Fire. I even know someone who named their daughter Daenarys after one of the characters but...it's nms.

I'm using a name I found in the Obernewtyn chronicles, which has a lot of good ones! Kella, Rushton, Alexi (though he was a bad guy), Dameon, Darius, Brydda, and there are so many others but I don't have the book near me.

From the world of Neil Gaiman (books) I like Tristran, though they changed it to Tristan in the movies (maybe that's how it was pronounced anyway?).

Edit: I found more for Obernewtyn
Analivia, Ander, Cameo, Ceirwyn, Colwyn (or Colin), Dell, Domick (or Dominick), Eril (or Errol), and then some. I'll stop unless you're interested in more ^^

I went to watch Pompeii yesterday and like the name Cassia for a girl, and they had a Milo for a boy - though it reminds me a bit of a dog.

Oberyn (M) from Game of Thrones. And although it is not strictly a name in the books - more a title - I love the idea of a daughter called Khaleesi Rose

 

[hale81]

Yes i love most of game of thrones names but they are getting so used now.

Cassia is a sweet name

I immediately thought of Hermione

Darcy, Elizabeth, Jane, Mary, Kitty, Lydia

We're naming our son Zeddicus Irfan after a character in the Sword of Truth series and DH's uncle who was killed in the Bosnian war. We will shorten it to Zedd or Z. I fell in love with the name years and years ago before I ever thought I would have kids. We both have unique names (his is unique in the US) and so I scoured all of my fantasy novels and re-found Zedd.
Boy
Allanon
Durin
Brona

Kahlan is another name in the SOT book that I really like.
Ilyena
Chiad
