Help[Opinions] Re: Quadruplet Character Help
in reply to a message by Violet08
One question to ask if if you care at all about the etymology of the name in relation to your character.
For example, the werewolf professor from Harry Potter is called Remus Lupin, but that basically means Wolfie McWolf if we boil it down
Another less obvious example is Regulus Black, younger brother of Sirius Black. In the story, he got involved with the Death Eaters, but realised too late that he was on the wrong side. He sacrificed himself to help take Voldemort down. Regulus is the name of the brightest star in the Leo constellation. The Leo constellation is a lion and the lion is associated heavily with Gryffindor house and their values (most notably bravery). Regulus may have been sorted into Slytherin, but he had other sides to him which his name was a subtle nod to.
Perhaps you can incorporate this into the names?
