heheheheeheh! I like that description!
After this weekend i started changing the names of my Second Generation characters. Why? Becasue Pip and Laura's first son was going to be named Oliver. But i really love the name Oliver and after me and my bf were talking i realized I'd rather have that name open as an option for my own kid one day. See i have a rule that i could never name a kid of mine the same name as one of my characters... long story as to why, but point being if i name the Charater Oliver the name is off the table.
But i'd been calling this kid Oliver for years now... and always associate the name with his description. Tall and lanky thin with shaggy red hair, freckles and dark blue eyes = Oliver to me.
But since i'm looking to change his name i had to pick a name that was uncommon, somewhat gaelic and still gave me that over all same description in my mind when i thought of the name. I came up with a whole list but the one i like the most was Sullivan because his nickname could be Sully which is freaking adorable and awesome IMO. But i'm not really getting the same descriptional picture in my head as Oliver.
Then after reading a thread posted somewhere else on here i realized that nameing two main characters with the same first initial was a big huge no no. Well my orginial second generation characters were Addison (Addy), Zackary (Zack), Oliver (Oli), Andrew (Andy), and Zoey. See my problem Two A's and two Z's... So i started shifting the names around... but now all the discriptions are off!!!!!!!!!!!!!
