A Wee Dilemma...

Can you guys help me out with something?

Okay. So, I just had this really cool idea for a book. I won't tell you all much, but it's about books, three sisters and gates. The sisters are ages 18, 15, and 11.

Now here's my problem. I have names for the two older girls--Autumn and October. I'm hoping for a fall-ish theme. =) But I'm stuck between the names 'Thanksgiving' and 'Harvest'.

What do you guys thing? Thanksgiving? Harvest? Keep in mind that they're for an eleven year old girl.

And do you all think that October sounds too much like a boy's name? I actually like it, but what picture does it give you?

Thank so much!

Oh! One more question. Should I do the book that I'm talking about above, or write the sequel for my last NaNoWriMo book?

I like Harvest better- Thanksgiving reminds me of Indians and Pilgrims, and I am not sure if that's the vibe you want the story to emanate.

Happy writing!

I would definitely say Harvest. It's actually a very lovely name! It makes me think of a small, pretty girl with orangey-blonde hair...like fall. :)

October is a good name, too; it reminds me of a tall girl with dark hair. :)

We've already talked about this, man deja vu (jk).
I like Harvest best, good luck!

Thanksgiving or Harvest? Hmmmm, Harvest would probably be easier to use, but Thanksgiving is pretty.

The name October dose seem a little boyish, there are the names Fall, Autumn, and Seasons, you might like.

Ooh! This sounds really great- I think you should do it for NaNoWriMo.

I like the name Harvest better then Thanksgiving, personally, but I think October is fine :)

Harvest is a beautiful name, it's very elegant and playful.

I think Harvest! After all I'm 11.:D
Well I think you should work on this book. So you don't lose the idea!
Love,

I think Harvest! For some reason, I really like the sound of it :)

Unknown said...

Oh, and October is NOT a boys' name!!!

You should right this new book instead. I like Harvest better but I have a suggestion also. :) Maybe something like Autumn or Leaf or Auburn or something! :D
