fun & games

It’s all fun & games until someone gets stuck in a kiddie swing.

Last week, we made a list of Romance Novel Hero names for every letter of the alphabet.  This week, it’s time to to give Romance Novel Heroines fair play.

Same rules as last time:

I’m going to list all the letters of the alphabet, & for each one, I want you to come up with a great name for a Romance Novel Heroine. :showgirl   No taking time to think about it, asking anybody else for input, or skimming through your TBR pile.  Just write down the first great Romance Novel Heroine name that pops into your head.

Ready?

Set.

Go!

Here are mine, but again—no peeking until after you’ve compiled & posted your own list! :littlevamp

Abby … Bella … Chloe … Daphne … Ella … Fiona … Grace … Holly … Ivy … Jessica … Kara … Lily … Maggie … Naomi … Olivia … Phoebe … Q (fail!) … Rachel … Samantha … Tessa … Ursula … Veronica … Wilhemena … Xenia … Yvonne … Zoey

Hey, only one fail for me this time around.  I almost feel like I cheated, though, because I used so many of my own heroines’ names.  Bonus points if you can guess which ones & from what books. :fangsmiley

So what does your list look like?

      I think we’re asking too much of WordPress. :lol But love them & glad you tacked on the rest.

      Love the name Prudence, btw…it was my paternal grandmother’s name & one I used for a historical that never got published.
