For my NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) novel, my main characters are twins, first names
Eleanore, aka
Ellie, and
William, aka
Will.
Will and
Ellie's parents are huge fans of Greek mythology, and for their middle names I was thinking the following options...
Selene and
Helios: in early mythology, they were the goddess of the moon and god of the sun respectively and were also twins.
Artemis and
Apollo: later were the goddess and god of the moon and sun, as well as being the goddess of the hunt and god of poetry, being twins as well.
Cassandra and
Alexander: kind of a stretch, but
Cassandra and
Alexandra were twins in Greek mythology that were known were given the gift of prophecy and
Cassandra was cursed so that no one would ever believe her
So which set? Or, since they were born on
Christmas, should their middle names be
Natalie and
Noel, as both names mean "
Christmas".
Opinions?
