Character name suggestions?
Hey, I'm a bit stuck on a character's name. Actually, I'm debating on whether to change his first name or not for personal reasons. I'm still fond over his original but if I were to change it, I wouldn't probably be OK with it. (Though depending on the name)His name: Damian Myers. I need a first name.Here's a bit of his background. (And I'm aware that a name does not define or make a person but since I am the author, I prefer to give a character a name that I feel best suits him or her. If you wish to nitpick, please feel free to skip over the characters "bio" and just suggest names that you feel work well with the rest and I can inwardly debate if the name works for him.He is 17. Described as being average height and weight;thin & fit. Blue eyes, blonde hair which is styled into a faux mohark. (Attractive looking)
He has a shadypast (An traumatic event which years later, still devastates him) so he comes across as being cold, heartless, phycodic & rude. Etc etc. (Expecially at the begining) He suffers from PTSD and depression. He was removed from his home at age 11 and at 13, was adopted. He attempted suicide which landed him in the mental hospital for a good duration of the story. They helped him to cope with his trauma and to control his anger better. He later turns into a pleasant enough person to be around though tragedy and misfortune strikes him again as his girlfriend is later found dead. (I'm heartless and cruel, I know)I guess you can say its a bit of an "cliqued" character but I'm fine with that (:
What names do you feel suit him OR what names do you feel flow great with the rest of his names?
Thank you

I'd go with Aaron personallyoh and 13 year olds are generally not adopted (long term fostering) unless it was a family friend, then they may go threw the formality of adopting, but more likely they would get a special guardianship order. It's rare for children over the age of 7 to be adopted.

To my knowledge, any child of any age can get adopted (: older kids getting adopted does happen and even if its so called "rare" or "not as common or frequent" I'm not bothered by that fact. Plenty of kids over the age of 7 are adopted (long-term fostering) at thatAaron. I would consider it. However, its actually the name of his foster brother (around his age;16) I greatly apprechiate the suggestion anyway. (:

a bit confused...So wait, you want a first name to go in front of Damian Myers so Damian becomes his middle name? Or you want a first name to replace Damian as his first name?

No, a first name. Damian is his middle and myers is his surnameSo _____Damian Myers (fill in the blank which is the line) so yes, a name in front of Damian.
Sorry for any confusion (:
