For the original fiction I want to do, I'll use these names. Megan Doyle. I came up with Megan because I think it's a pretty name. I know there are a lot of spellings for that one, but I took the simplest as I'll be writing the story in Spanish and I don't need the readers to be confused. Doyle from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. William McGregor. I needed a Scottish-sounding name. I've always loved William, and I took McGregor, not for the hot actor, but because I looked over old Scottish clans, and I liked how that one sounded with Will. Randy Jenkins. This is the know-it-all, wise wizard, so I wanted a really British name for him. I took the names from a encyclopedia, and it kind of fitted. Guillah: this is the magical pet. I parted from Gaia and started changing and adding letters to it. Is this fitting for the Lock Ness monster? The twins, Kin and Diana. Kin is a nickname and I took it from a solar god in mayan or aztec myths. His wizard name is Phoebus, and he has a sun-shaped birthmark in the back of his hand. His sister's name came from Lady Di, but also because Diana in roman myths is Phoebus' twin. Her witch name is, of course, Artemis. Yeah, I know I'm messing up with Greek/Roman. I just didn't want to use Apollo on Kin, won't fit. And there are other names for secondary characters, like Jenny (it was random), Adam and Eric (I liked those two).
