Character Name Help?
I am writing a story and I have almost all names but 2. I need you to help me by suggesting names for a pair of 16 year boy-girl twins.

Veronica "Ronnie" and Victor "Tory" are what immediately came to mind. I would suggest that you don't give them overly similar names. At most, I think you could get away with the same initial letter, but even then I think nicknames would definitely help to differentiate them. Giving two characters, especially two main characters, names that are too similar can end up being confusing for a reader, and they may have trouble keeping track of which character has which trait or who's doing what. Best of luck with your story!
It would help to have more details, like what genre is the story, do they have siblings, if so what are their names, what are the twins personalities, what time period is the story set in, do they have a specific ethnicity. I could just give you some random names, but if you give some of these details, I and others on the board can give you a list of names better suited to your story and characters. :)
Well its a mystery story. The twins are from Washington, they are blonde with green eyes. They have a sister, Eleanor, and it is a modern story. If it helps, the boy is a total nerd. He is really smart, competitive, and outgoing. The girl is quirky,silly, and creative. She is very friendly,but not too bright.
That does help :)
