sailorhathorThose of you who voted in my poll the other day (involving an S name for my Evil Well Bitch), thank you for the input! I've got another poll for you! Please help me narrow down her name.
This is the Evil Well Bitch, or rather, this is her live action model. I tried to represent a couple of different moods in the pictures. If you're just as indecisive as I am, feel free to pick more than one name. I've narrowed it down to only a few names.
[Poll #1112640]
Below the cut I talk about why I chose these particular names, 'cause, you know, I just like babbling about my writing. :D You guys suggested some really great names. Some of them had to be thrown out immediately, though, because I have a problem writing about characters having sex when they are named after family members or friends. Now, when I say that, understand that it's not the way it is all the time. I mentioned my first novel before - the heroine is named Shelley. I got her name from a junior high/high school friend. That novel is full of sex. :D But, by the time I started that book, Shelley and I weren't hanging out anymore. I liked the name, so I used it. This is not how it is in most cases. Most of the time, if I name a character after someone I know, I get heavily squicked by the sex scenes.
Sylvia, Cheryl, Sandy = All people I know/family members
Sasha, combinations of Suzanne/Susie, Savannah = I already have characters with these names that I'm still writing for, a couple of them other Evil Well Bitches.
Samantha = Dean would be fucking the female version of his brother. Not really what I'm going for in this case. ;D
Sybill = Too closely associated with the multiple personality chick.
Simone = I actually think that the LAM I chose really looks like a Simone. But it seems kind of unEWBish.
Sophie = Awww, so cute. Kind of fits her, too. But it flew under my radar, so meh.
The names that I was left with I put on the list of possibles because they fit the character/the character's look. That's why I put Cheyenne back on the list - the girl just looks like a possible Cheyenne. Nickname Chey (Shy), awwwww.
