Hi everyone,

I'm working on my NanoWriMo project right now (if you haven't heard of it - you write a novel in November) and stuck on some character names!

I need a generic and common (as in not unusual) name for one 9 year old, and another very flouncy and unusual one (poncey, probably). With the second one I'm looking for multiple names to combine, so think a first name and one or two middles.

Would love to hear suggestions - I teach as well, so I'm really trying to avoid any names of kids I know, I don't want to model it off them. I've tried out a few names but for various reasons they werent quite 'right' iyswim.

All suggestions welcome!
