Badass female names for book character?
I'm thinking of writing a story, but I'm stuck on naming the main female character. I want something that very much fits a strong military woman. It doesn't need to be particularly feminine (I'd prefer if it wasn't, since cutesy and feminine doesn't suit her personality) and Hispanic sounding would be a plus. I've been drawn towards Joey (Nickname for Joana) or maybe Aiden. But I'd like a couple other suggestions. :) In your opinion, what is a strong, badass female name? (Also, half asleep as I type this. Forgive me if I sound a little... stupid)

What are some unique character names?
There are many names I can pull out of my head. I’ll start off with some more normal ones, then move up to the totally and utterly outlandish ones.…Jamie Dwyer - male or female. I find this good for quite a rough person. Well, that's how I imagine them.Bella Witherton - female. Could be quite nasty, or live in a small hut in the woods.Symun Turin - male. Sounds like it wouldn't be put if place in the Lord of the Rings.Bowie Snowden - male. Parents were possibly fans of David Bowie. A strange combination.Rosette Donny - female. A band member, possible neon dreadlocks and a phoenix tattoo on her back, wrapping around her shoulders.Emeris Basaric - male. Exotic. Tanned skin and dark eyes, possibly a dragon tamer.Royotua Auxing - male or female. I will admit, this one is composed of typos.Rusty River - male. Possibly a mechanic, or a very talented Archer.Evergreen Winters - female. A contradiction.Basil Riko - female. Lovely soft person. Quite a nasty streak if someone threatens her family though.Violet Grunyle - female. Very attractive. Gets annoyed when people mess up last name.Fleur Reinink - female. Aptly named, a florist.Sterling Clarke - male. Quite snide, possibly a businessman. Wears an obnoxiously checkered suit.And my favourite of all time (that I'm willing to share, can't go telling the world my main characters name): Mercury McLightenhald - male. Very jovial. Owns a tavern or something.…Hope I helped.
Why does comic characters have female and male versions?
There can be many reasons.In the case of Batman and the original Batwoman, Hawman and Hawkgirl, or the Fly and the Fly-Girl, it was to suggest a romantic partner for the hero.In the case of Superman and Supergirl, it was to extend Superman’s blood relatives, make him less of an orphan.In the case of the Hulk and She-Hulk, it was to spin off a character who was particularly popular (thanks to the TV series) at the time.I have no idea whatsoever why there is both a Thor and a female Thor.
What are some male characters written by a female writer moments that made you go "This girl is so out of touch with men"?
Waiting to Exhale written by Terri McMillan. Although it was a good book (turned into a movie) from the black female perspective, but too many of the men introduced seemed aloof or had some kind of agenda that pertained to exploiting the women they were involved with or being emotionally abusive.Now this might be the case because there is a very small black community in the area where the story takes place, but I like to believe in equilibrium, so it would have been more interesting to see more depth amongst the male characters.Interestingly enough, Terri McMillan’s art mirrored her life in that she was married to a man who ended up revealing to her that he was gay which shows that there were issues in the way she interpreted men and the differences in our orientations.
Good female/male assassin names?
So I'm writing a book about a girl who is an assassin (duh) Not like a name like 'Sam'. A nickname like 'Satan's Assassin'. Or something like that. Thankyou.
Anybody know any good names for fantasy book characters?
You shouldn't let others pick your names for you. Not only does it dilute your craft, but it takes the opportunity from you to create them yourself, which I know you've already tried. Don't give up just yet, even on this aspect of it. Here are a few tips, though. First, people associate letters with types of characters more than they think they do. Have you ever noticed how many villains, for example, have v's in their names? This can even serve to make anti-heroes more menacing, such as V himself. Heroes, on the other hand, often have h in their names, and not as part of th or sh, either. Also hard g's, because it makes people think of guard or guardian. That brings us to vowels. Traditionally, a can be either male or female, depending on whether it's a long a or a short a. O's are typically for villains, and i's are for either females or very smart males, because of intuition and intelligence respectively. Then there is the length of the name. In fantasy particularly, longer names are associated with nobility and wizards (and villainy) because it denotes sophisitication. Shorter names, of course, including one-syllable names, are for rural or small-town characters. Heroes are usually right in between. One more thing: keep the names regional. If you have a lot of names with -ion endings, for example, or -th's, or that all have multiple combinations of e's and o's, keep them all in the same ethnic groups.
What is a female version of the Russian name Alexei? (For a book character)
What is a female version of the Russian name Alexei?There is none. Whatever you can come up with will sound more absurd than the name of the Russian submarine commander in The Hunt for Red October, Kaganovich.There was a Canadian movie with a very bad Russian character. In one scene he introduces himself to the main character: “My name is Sergey Sergeyevich, but my friends call me Ilyusha.” That was exactly as absurd as it would be to say, “My name is John Fitzgerald, but my friends call me Billy.”Don’t be like that.
