So, I am in the process of finishing my novella, but I don't have names for half of the characters. In the places where a name should be, there is {Name} for a boy and [Name] for a girl.

Needless to say it is driving me nuts.

The novella is set up with each of the different character's perspectives as chapters much like "My Sister's Keeper" was set up.

Another thing is that their last names characterize them if that makes sense.

The Sweetheart is

[name] Valentine

Her husband (who dies)

--No name at all, but I keep wanting to call him Brian, but I dated a Brian in high school so it's weird.

The other guy/best friend/is set to inherit his father's brewery

{name} Miller

The girl best friend of {name Miller} and {No Name at all}'s sister (An independent hairstylist who does her own thing.)

Rachel [name]

I know that was probably really confusing so here's a summary:

Valentine needs a first name
Rachel needs a last name
Miller needs a first name
And no name needs an entire name. haha

Sorry that was long, but thank you for all your help!!!!!!!!!!!!
