Just wanted to keep everyone up to date concerning the new hero’s name contest Some of these came from Facebook and as great as the names themselves are, they don’t exactly go with McFarland. I may end up having to run a contest for new last name next. LOL
Here’s the list so far:
Dillion/Dylan–not a bad name, but concerned about it with McFarland
Jason/Jase–nixed, this is my nephew’s name
Brandon
Brett–I already have a hero Brett
Liam–fabulous name but too Irish for my Scottish surname
Colt–IMHO a little too cowboy for my multi-millionaire
Jackson–I already have a Jackson
Aiden
Adam
Zane–have a Zane already
Dimitri–not feeling it, but it’s a great name
Grayson–with Mcfarland? (makes face)
Paxton–See previous comment and facial expression
Alexander–not bad, but very vanilla these days.
Chad–uhum…no. Sorry, Mom!
Tyler–hmmmm
Trent –ex from college. that’s out
Tucker–I’ve used this in another book
Cam–LOVE it! (*not* short for Cameron)
Ross–another favorite
There have to be a couple of more great hero names out there…still searching…
Garth, Keith, and Terri are all time-honored Scottish names :-)
Hope you’re having a great week, Amie!

Wow – glad you can keep all the names you’ve used or are planning to use straight. Can’t wait to see the name you ultimately choose.
