Help[Opinions] Names inspired by my characters moodboard or that my character could like (a long post, sorry)
Leni is an autistic girl (by modern standards) born in 1915 in Austria who was fascinated with the Middle Ages specifically with Medieval German literature, German folklore, and Germanic, Nordic, and Anglo-Saxon mythology.
Leni's father is a religious protestant who died in the Great War when Leni was little so it would make sense that her mother would also be religious.
Leni is interested in the Middle Ages but through a German and childlike lense (Leni is Austrian but she is interested in German-speaking medieval Europe and later on aligns herself with German nationalism - due to her being an outcast)
Some names I thought could suit her taste in names (and that remind me of her moodboard below):
Jerusha (a biblical name she heard once and likes)
Wolfhilde/Wulfhilde (a name of Old High German origin Leni likes)
Theresa (A name of a saint and also used in German circles)
Amabilia (A name of Latinate origin that sounds medieval according to Leni)
Salomea (was used in Medieval Silesia)
Friedegard (a name of Old High German origin that sounds medieval according to Leni)
Melisende (inspired by Melisende queen of Jerusalem)
to keep it short I want anything that is unusual and could fit into her childlike taste it doesn't have to "make sense" for her to use, but it preferably has to a have German medieval fantasy vibe (non-German names are also good). Leni is an outcast and has an unusual "weird" taste in names.
also, feel free to suggest names inspired by her moodboard I need all of these names for my next CAF
(this is her moodboard)
even if you are unsure of whether it would suit her taste any suggestions are great!
