Veronica and Klyde are staying, though having middle names for the two of them might help. Veronica ?? Chains and Klyde ?? Walker.
Veronica's parents are Richard and Claudia (which will remain), but I'm not sure about her two sisters (who are EVIL) Gwenyth and Cassandra.
Klyde's brother used to be Bruce, but I ended up changing it to Bruno, so which one of those should I go with?
Klyde's dead parents also need names.
Veronica's best friend/worst enemy was Simone Stanley, but I need a new last name...
I'm usually very good at coming up with names, but when it's deciding for my own people...It's a lot harder. Especially with THIS story...I must have changed my character names 8 million times!!

7 years ago I began writing a series of stories called "Veronica and Klyde"...Well, recently I was reminded of them and was rereading the old notebooks, and I decided I'd (try) rewriting the series. But there are several characters that are in desperate need of new names.

Veronica, Klyde, Cassandra, Gwenyth (though I prefer Gwyneth, since it's the traditional spelling - but you know that's just me.) are all good, strong character names. I'm not too sure about Chains, but then again I'm not familiar with the characters so I can't say for certain. And I'm not sure if middle names would be necessary. Are you planning on using them constantly? Like, Veronica Ellen did such and such? I really don't see the need, if you don't plan using it constantly.
As far as Klyde's brother's name, I like Bruce better then Bruno. I think Klyde and Bruce are a better sib set.
Kylde's parents... hmm... Edward & Patricia?
Here are a few new last name ideas for Simone:
Simone Gaurtier
Simone D'Aubigne
Simone De Lorme
Simone Delaflote
Simone Devereux
With a first name like Simone, she just seemed French to me.

And I have to agree that I like Bruce and Klyde better than Bruno and Klyde As for the parents... first ones coming to mind for dad are Scott, Adam, Logan, or maybe Collin... for mom maybe Lily, Anna, Audrey?
Last name idea for Simone... I tried to think up both some more "rich" sounding, classic French names and some more modern ones.
Simone Aungier
Simone Bauer
Simone Cervantes
Simone Delacour
Simone Devon
Simone Ford
Simone Russell (my maiden name -- but I like the sound of it )
Simone St. Croix
Simone Valdera

I prefer Bruno over Bruce but Klyde and Bruce make a better sibset in my opinion. Klyde's parents... Joanne and Ralph?
As for surnames, how about
Simone Dubois
Simone Leroux
Simone Mitchell
Simone Williams
Simone Van Dyk
