I wanted to use this name on a character before I realised that the meaning was literally 'barker.' The character's story is kind of based on the dog: he's destined to go on a great adventure, but his fate's sealed from the start, and there was never hope for him to survive it. When I first heard the name, I thought it might be unisex because it reminded me of
Luca and
Sasha. But it's not. I don't totally mind using a typically feminine name for this character, and I'm not 100% decided that I'll make this character a guy, but that's the current plan.
So, with that being said, do y'all have any suggestions?
It could simply sound similar, or it could have a symbolic meaning, or whatever. I'd love any suggestions!
