So I decided I would write a story. It's about a Mailman's journey through a town "Morton" and meets rich people, poor people, happy people, sad people, etc. I thought it would be nice to give them names that fit them all well so I will be updating this daily.

Mailman~About 6'0'', african-american, glasses, bald, a little overweight, and very kind.
Maybe Craig Roberts?

Lower Class Neighborhood~ Name? This is in a city called Morton but there are neighborhoods. This one includes old brick houses, small lots, uncut grass, very urban, industrial, and a lot of graffiti.

Old Women- Wrinkled with age, Hispanic, hunch backed, short, has a cane, and very cranky

Young Mother- Is about 18 w/ a 2 year old son. White, works two jobs, tries to go to school, and is depressed.

Boy- Big Green Eyes, short hair, Mixed Race, Very Happy and cheers up his mom.

Will Be updated :)

Sounds like a neat story :)

Mailman~I'm definitely liking the Craig. Craig Harris is nice, I also like Craig Barry and Craig Sesko.

Lower Class Neighborhood~ hmm, this isn't really my specialty haha. but maybe Welles, Tanglewood, Brimfield.

Old Woman- Ms. Rudy Torres, Mercedes Wright, Betsy Rivera.

Young Mother- Lorena (Renny?) Winton, Amy Booth, Daniella Barone, Courtney Megans.

Boy- Donovan (Donny?), Arnold, Cale, Jarvis, Harris.

Thanks Smile, your always very helpful!

I think Craig is set in stone now! Well I like Craig Sesko, a lot!

For the neighborhood I really like Welles

For the women I'm liking the sound of Mrs. Rivera :)

I like Amy Booth very suiting IMO.

I also like Donovan and Donny would be a nice way to show him she cares.


Here are a few more.

"Gangster" harassing a little girl.

:. The first one: African American, Tall, Hat on side ways, sagging, and very mean. age 23
:. The second one: Asian, Medium, Very small eyes, Acne, same outfit as previous, and is orphaned since 12. age 17
:. The last one: White, Skinny, Red Curly Hair, hidden in a beanie. same outfit, and has a sad/angry look in his blue eyes.

Little Girl: A small latino girl caring her doll (needs a name too; bear with one eye missing) but she is intelligent and cunning. She is outnumbered be only 5. Craig (Last Name Pending) saves her.

  • Interests:My top peeve is when people use offensive, sacrilegious names that are supposedly Native American but aren't, just to be cool. Please, ASK about the culture before you name your kid Dakota, Cheyenne, Nayeli, etc.

Mailman: Craig Roberts is an awesome mailman name! I also like Craig Carter, just for the meaning. Oh irony!

For the low class neighborhood I think you should stay away from surname words (which are decidedly upper crust), maybe give them a nature-related name like Blue Springs or Carlewood.

Old lady: Definitely Bonita! I know an old, Hispanic lady named Bonita and she's adorable, very friendly. She goes by Grandma Bonnie. I think Mrs. Bonita "Bonnie" Rivera is nice :)

Amy is a very good name for who you described. Also: Kayla, Heather, Amber, Brittany, Alyssa.

Boy: by 'mixed race' I'm guessing you mean black and white? Well all the mixed kids I know are given "white" names, maybe to subconsciously hide the fact that they are part minority, so what about Jason, Kevin, Xavier, Greg, Mike?

Gangster 1: Jaheim
Gangster 2: Tian
Gangster 3: Patrick (obviously an Irish gangster, hahaha)

Little girl: Gabriella, "Gabby". Simply adorable for a little girl. Is she holding a doll or a bear? If it's a doll, I like Molly, Susie, or Lily. If it's a bear, hmm...my bear when I was a little girl was named Harper, if that helps, haha. He wore a raincoat! :)

Old Woman - Mercedes Venick, Lupe (pronounced Loo-PAY) Chavez, Sarita Vallejo
Young Mother - Anna, Danae, Evie, Maya, Sarah
Boy - Percy or Isaac would be cute.
Gangster 1- Antonio McDougald
Gangster 2- Cho Wong, Dao Ming, something short.
Gangster 3- Douglas Richards, Gerard Matthews
Little Girl: Veronica Vasquez (nn Vivi), Carolina Iglesia. Teddy Bear could be called "Oso" which means bear in Spanish or maybe another Spanish term.
