I need a name for a strong woman erroneously accused of a capital crime. |
I'm working on this novel, several chapters in to it, when it occurs to me that I've got the slows because I hate the heroines' name! I bought a baby book, searched the web, re-read novels I've loved, and still can't find a name that really fits. This is a strong woman, wrongly accused of murdering her mother-in-law. Sure, she hates the old bat, but she's not stupid. She just wishes the old woman would drop dead, but she's not willing to go to jail just to get rid of a petty annoyance. So what if her favorite comment about the old woman is, "If the old bat doesn't die soon, I'm gonna hafta kill her!"; that doesn't mean she'd really off the old woman. Just because she wouldn't lift a finger to stop the old woman from falling off a cliff, that's no reason to assume the heroine would give the old woman a shove, is it? So, here I sit, typing listlessly, when it hits me: these people on this site can all make up names, they made up their own names, didn't they? C'mon, you named yourself, so now name this broad for me, please. I'm desperate, and so is She Who Bears No Name. Chriswriter ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
