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.

Villette

Meaning: (Small Town, Literary: the name of one of Charlotte Brontë's lesser-known novels)

Origin: (French)

Pronuncaition: (VahLEHT, VEE-yet)

Gender: Female

I was trying to decide which book I wanted to read and I saw I had Villette by Charlotte Bronte on my book shelf. I have that on my to read list for a while but I thought I might wait a while before I read it. But I like the name Villette. It has an alright meaning. It’s unique and I haven’t really seen this before. It could work as a character name I suppose. Though in the novel by Charlotte Bronte that is not a name of a character in the novel.

I try to have the most accurate Meanings, Origin and Pronunciations for the names on this blog. It is best though to do research into the names you decide to use for your characters as there can be errors on my blog. Or meanings, origins, and pronunciations I have not seen thus not been able to add to this blog.
