I have used this name in a novel before. I really like the name even if I am on the fence about the meaning. I first came to hear this name on Sci-fi series Stargate Atlantis there was a character named Ronan Dex who was played by Jason Momoa you might know him from the recent film Conan the Barbarian. I thought it was a cool name and I still do. It is also the last name of actress Saoirse Ronan who was in the films Lovely Bones, Ember, Atonement and many other films.
Character Naming
As an Author naming your Character is an important step right after coming up with the plot. I am here to help you choose the right character name for you and your story.
Make sure your character name is Genre Appropriate. Make sure if it's a Historical Fiction novel or takes place in a real time period that the name was used then. Or if it's a fictionalized place then you can be as creative as you wish.
Just have fun with naming your character. It is after all your story.
