So many of you may have seen other posts of mine about this fantasy trilogy I'm writing. I'm still on to book 1, but I have the basic plot for book 2 already.

I need a name for a character that is introduced in book 2. She isn't the main character but she is going to play a big role in this story.

So here is a basic outline of the story (based around the characters that are important for this character-I won't give you the whole story):

My MC is called Raya. In book 1 she is 14 years old, but at the start of book 2 she is 20. Before it was destroyed by the king, she lived in a village called Rayleigh. She had a best friend called Corin. Well, they got separated when the village was destroyed, but eventually found each other again.

Anywho, when she is 20, she realises she is in love with Corin, but Corin is already married and have just had twin girls called Rayna and Leigha (after the village). The name I need is for his wife. Raya is obviously going to be jealous so her name will be coming up quite a bit. First names are only essential. I don't use middle names and only a few of the characters have last names.

Here are some other names of my characters to give you a feel of the naming style I have used (if you can call it a style):

Raya
Micah
Corin
Knott
Serina
Collie
Bessie
Elsie
Etan
Judah
Lorris

So yeah, it's fantasy and I made half the names up lol. And those aren't all my characters :)

Yay! I'm glad I could help. :( And of course I like all three of the choices, but I think I'm leaning towards Nerissa a little bit. Either way, good luck with the trilogy!
