You gave me a lot to think about and great resources as I consider interesting and memorable names, as well as time-and-place authenticity, in naming my characters.

Adding TURTLE IN PARADISE to my must-read list right now! In my own writing, some characters&#39; names are essential parts of their identity (nicknames, connection to culture, ethnicity or history) while, in other cases, the name has been something simpler, cleaner, something to show a character blends in and doesn&#39;t stand out. Anyhow, your post obviously made me think. Thanks! - StasiaSWKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17415483299971270025noreply@blogger.com
