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.

Annalise / Annaliese

Meaning: (Grace, Favor, Graced with God’s Bounty, Favored Grace, Graceful Light, Scandinavian combination name composed of Anne (Gracious, Full of Grace) and Liese (God is my Oath), Variant of Annalisa.)

Origin: (Latin, German, Scandinavian, Danish, Hebrew, French, English)

Pronunciation: (a-nə-LEES, AHN-ah-liese, ae-N-aa-LIY-Saa- or AE-N-ah-Liy-Z)

Gender: Female

I was looking at something the other day and I saw this name. I have seen this name before because of this actress I used to see on T.V all the time but I never really looked into this name. It has good meanings and it’s a name that is used but is still unique sounding.

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.





Try some of the leading Baby Name Sites and Baby Name or Character Naming books as well.
