HelpRe: Need some American Old Money names (for characters)
in reply to a message by RoxStar
Fair point about the father being a "junior." William is probably the name I'm going to go with. I also really like Patricia for the mom. I'm also considering Caroline or Carolyn.
And considering your point about surnames as first names, I'd planned that Xavier was a grandmother's maiden name (otherwise I'd agree that it sounds more "nouveau-riche" than "blue-blood"). Also I've decided to use the mother's feminine-sounding maiden name as the first daughter's first name. It's the main character who's the most difficult to name, though.
Thank you for the suggestions!
