Part of the story line, however, involves the characters changing their name. Hopefully not as clichéd as it sounds when I type this, it basically involves a secret organisation, the people changing their names to stop them being traced, and of course, there's a small amount of kidnapping involved. What a surprise. But that means everyone has two names, whether or not I know them, and I've pretty much exhausted my efforts at naming by now, so I thought you lot might be able to help me. Now, the changes aren't desperate, but I could do with knowing them, as I'm starting to plan ahead a bit, and without names, it's getting a bit complicated...
1. One of the main character needs a new name. By the end of the book, she will be called Annabelle Lirit/Lyric, no questions asked. However, I don't know anything about her name before then. Originally, she was called Annabelle Cassandra Lirit, but that's too complicated, as there is already a character called Cassandra in the books, and the change of name would be too noticeable. So, she needs a new first name and surname. Her middle name is Annabelle, or a variation of that spelling, and her first name should be common, or popular (she was born in the 90s), or biblical, or something along those lines.
Sarah Annabelle/Annabel
Elizabeth Annabelle/Annabel
Megan Annabelle/Annabel
2. There are a few other characters that need names, who are more like background/less important characters. They can have names that are more uncommon, and even count as guilty pleasure names, or even just common ones. They all need surnames, as I'm not very good at that. I do have some name ideas for this, but would like a few more. None of these need middle names as far as I can tell.
i. A technician kind-of person. He helps the main characters and talks to them sometimes during their "breaks" (when they don't have somewhere they need to be). He's in his twenties, though I'm not exactly sure at what point, and likes to joke around. He's sort of like Dean's enemy, but I'm not sure.
River?
ii. A friend of Cassandra's, she is rather athletic, and only just turned twenty-one. I don't have much information on her, but Annabelle doesn't like her very much, and finds her troublesome and annoying.
Ranger? Rane/Rain?
iii. Currently training, he is sixteen, and only just getting used to life in the organisation. He is calm, quiet, but generally a happy person.
Caspar/Caspian? Cyan?
3. Other than that, theirs just some general names and surnames, so if you have any burning ideas, just tell me.
I know, I know, that's a lot of stuff, but I'll take any suggestions at this point!
The main characters are:
Dean Haindridge/Hainbridge (possibly a typo, but now I don't know which I'm meant to be using - any ideas?)
Cassandra "Cassie" Roman
Teagan (I'm sure he has a surname, but I can't seem to find it...)
Annabelle Lirit/Lyric
