Top 5 Sundays

Top 5 Sundays is a weekly blog meme created by Larissa at Larissa's Bookish Life.

Here's a little info about the meme taken from Larissa's blog:

Every Sunday I will post a TOP 5 list on the blog. It can be about anything and every week I'll have a new theme {You can vote on next week’s theme on my left sidebar!} and I will ad the Mr.Linky bellow the post so you can do a list with the theme and add you link to it.

Rules:
1 - Write a post listing your TOP 5 choices within the theme I chose (or was chosen on a poll) for the week.
2 - Mention this Blog on the post and link back to it.
3 - Fell free to use the Feature's image (there is a smaller size version of it bellow)
4 - After you've finished your post, add you link (of the post, not your blog's main page) to the Mr.Linky at the end of that week's post.
5 – If you don’t have a blog to post, just leave your list in the comments =)

This week's topic is: FAVE CHARACTER NAMES

*in no particular order

GIRL NAMES
 
FAYTHE
The Shifters series by Rachel Vincent: I moreso like the way she spells her name! It's different and I like it!

RILEY
Riley Jenson series by Keri Arthur: I love the name Riley! Whether it's for a girl or a guy, something about the name just makes me think of a very strong character!

NYX
Night Tracker series by Cheyenne McCray: Nyx is just such a cool name! It's different and stands out and totally fits her character!

YELENA
The Study Trilogy by Maria V. Snyder: Another name that is totally different from the norm. Of course the way I say it in my head might be totally different than what others say, but I like how I say it and think it's a cool name!

ROSE
Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead: What I like about the name Rose here is that it seems like it would belong to a girl-girl, which this Rose is soooo not! I like how she has a "soft" name but her character is a bit more hardcore, okay not leather-clad hardcore, but you know, Rose-Tough!

GUY NAMES

PATCH
Hush, Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick: Here's another name that is different from the norm. Patch! It's a noun, yet this guy Patch was very interesting! I still have to read Crescendo, but I adored Patch in Hush, Hush.

KISTEN
The Hallow series by Kim Harrison: Kisten has such a different name than the norm. Kisten, our fave vampire from the series, how can you not like the name Kisten! It's so cool! Like kiss, like Kisten, kiss me! Flows so nicely!

ROMAN
Georgina Kincaid series by Richelle Mead: how can you not like a name as hot as Roman? I mean again, we have a noun for a name and Roman here was very sexy! So I guess the name itself becomes sexy!

BONES/CRISPIN
 Night Huntress series by Jeaniene Frost: anyway you spin, it Bones/Crispin is just a hot name! Bones is dark and eerie! While Crispin makes you think a bit more dignified yet still being ever so sexy!

DAMON
The Vampire Diaries by L.J. Smith: Looove this name! Even before the show came along, I adored this series and still do! Damon just had an edge to his name that ended up fitting his character as well. Kind of led me to think of "Danger" with the same sound in the beginning, b/c as we know Damon is Dangerous! ;)
