Peter James is nondescript. Evynne does not Evan make. I’m sure it works in most North American accents, though. Evelyn would be nicer, or Evelynne to match the aesthetic. I don’t like the repetition of middle names even a bit. Did they not have other family members to honour, other names they liked? It feels like a wasted opportunity. Ashland sounds like a kind of post-apocalyptic wasteland. I see it’s a place though so… fine? I just don’t vibe with it. I secretly like the name Sailor, I love any maritime name, and Saylor is a legit surname so that’s fine with me, but I do think Sailor is more aesthetically pleasing.

I believe they live in Oregon. Peter is from Ashland, Oregon, USA and Evynne founded the University of Oregon's acappella group Divisi which inspired the Pitch Perfect books and movies. They met in college.
