Naming

Day One:

Before I can really write about the characters, I need names. Names tell so much about the characters. For simplicity’s sake, until I have names, I will call them : dwarf, thief, fortune teller, Soldier 1 (closest to her), Feather (back to us), Hand (the one whose hand she’s reading), Waiter, and…the last one really haunts me. I’ll have his name tomorrow.

Today, though, the fortune teller. I want to call her Cassandra, but….obvious. I’d been trying to come up with a gypsy-sounding name, but Esmerelda was it; again, too obvious.

Alessandra, a variant of Cassandra. That Works!
