This week's FEATURED BLOGGERS: (Don't forget to follow them!)
Q: I like unique names for characters and am looking forward to coming up with some when I start writing. What's the most unique character name you've come across?
A: Hmm...I must admit, I do love unique names, but not something so unique that it sounds ridiculous. Right now, I am outlining my first erotic BDSM story and the main character's name is Nash. I knew it the first time I said it out loud that my hero HAD to be called Nash. My Heroine is yet unnamed. When picking names, I let the character pick his or her name-it has to feel right.
The most unique name I have seen goes to Stephanie Tyler's Renessme...different, yet I thought it fit the character. I know a lot of peeps didn't care for it, but I thought it was pretty different without sounding too ridiculous.
I also thought JR Ward did a fantastic job in picking out her BDB character's names:
Rhage
Wrath
Butch
Vishous
Zsadist
Phury
Tohrment
Rehvenge
What about you? What names do you find unique?
JR Ward's names are unique! And I like the name Nash! Hope you have a great Friday :)

Hi! Thanks for stopping by. I'm following you too. I really like the BDB names a lot. I like that they don't so much sound unusual but they are spelled unusual.
