This week's theme is: Favorite Names of Female Characters!
*in no particular order
**Ooooh! What an intriguing theme!
RILEY
Really I love this name for either female or male character! Here Riley is a total kick but teen heroine! Still need to read the latest one! I also liked Riley Jenson! She was a riot and a kick ass heroine as well
As for male Riley I really really LOVE Gena Showalter's Riley from the Intertwined series!
YELENA
I love the name Yelena too! I kind of put a "Ya" sound then just say "elena" like Kelley Armstong's Elena! It's always so hard to know the correct pronunciation of names and words when you read!
MACKALYA (MAC)
There truly is no other MacKalya as great as MacKalya Lane! Loved her! And her nickname Mac made her all the more feisty I think! Either version, I think this name is just too cool!
ALEXIA
Alexia is just too cool too! Again with the pronunciation! Not sure how it should go, but I kind of say "Alexa" but put an "e" sound before the last "a"! And I like the sound of how it comes out! Plus Alexia is just a fun character too! Still need to read the last book of this series!
EMBER
Really really like this name! It's just sooo cool! Read two books this year, both YA with this name! It's just awesome! Makes me think of embers with flames and what not! Might use this name myself in one of my books...just have to think of where... :)
OTHER NOTEWORTHY NAMES:
FAYTHE
Really like the spelling of this one!
M.J.
Okay, it's her nickname, but it's still cool!
Going to stop here or else I'll go on and on!
I completely loved Yelena and Alexia...both as characters and their names! I haven't read any of these others, so it looks like I have some catch up to do. :D

ReplyDeleteGreat list :) I wanted to put Riley Blackthorne on my list, too, but didn't. I love her name :)
ReplyDeleteI love Riley's name. Im a sucker for girls that have boy names or boy nicknames.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see Riley up there!
ReplyDeleteI have Riley on my list too. It's my car's name. I didn't realize the name was also in the Demon Trappers. I have it ok my shelf but haven't read it yet. Great list. :)
