New Goddess Contest: “A rose by any other name?”
Mar 28th 2007
Karen RoseOn Writing!
This is our second GODDESS CONTEST. Read on, goddesses, for the intro and the info on the “A Rose By Any Other Name” contest.
So what’s in a name, really? Many times a name has special meaning. Perhaps it’s a family name (like Rose is my grandmother’s name) or perhaps it was chosen for its cultural meaning. In American Sign Language, a name sign often symbolizes the person’s physical attribute, hobby, or characteristic. A name then, can be far more than a label. Names are important, whether or not they started out with special meaning. We become defined by our name. When my friends think ”Karen Rose”, my face pops into their mind. (Hopefully it is not my morning face without makeup or it will scare my poor friends.)
I’m sometimes asked, “How do you think up your characters’ names?” It depends. Sometimes it’s a name I just like. Sometimes it’s a name I’ve recently heard in passing and my brain grabs it. Jenna, the heroine in my second book HAVE YOU SEEN HER, was the name of my youngest daughter’s best friend the week I wrote the proposal. Solliday, the last name of the hero in my latest book COUNT TO TEN was the last name of my elementary school crush. The Solliday boys were identical twins so their first names were interchangeable, but their last name stuck in my mind since the third grade. Do I ever give my villains and/or victims names of people who’ve ticked me off? I’ll never tell!
Sometimes the name of a character becomes associated with a specific attribute, to the point it becomes its own descriptor. Some examples: A “Dudley Do-Right” is a squeaky-clean man. A “Calamity Jane” is an accident looking for someplace to happen. A “Cruella DeVille” - an evil b-witch. A “Pollyanna” is an eternal optimist. Rambo, Scrooge, Sherlock. All of these evoke a mental picture.
When I first started writing, my husband tried to “help” me come up with names for my hero and heroine. My husband is the most supportive man on the planet. He is, however, a big kid and big kidder. He christened my heroine “Victoria Vonderhooters” and my hero “Malcolm Hungwell.” So now, almost fifteen years later, he still asks, “How are good old Victoria and Malcolm doing?” and no matter how stressed I am by impending deadlines of doom, I still grin.
So - the contest challenge: Come up with your own names for heroines, heroes, and/or villains. Make them funny, sexy, sappy, a little suggestive, or even sweet - but the name has to evoke an image. Contest ends at 11:59 p.m. Thursday, March 29 (that’s today).
I’ll judge the names I like best and pick two winners. One winner will receive my February romantic suspense COUNT TO TEN and one winner will receive Julia London’s THE HAZARDS OF HUNTING A DUKE, which is the prelude to her April release THE PERILS OF PURSUING A PRINCE.
So goddesses, start your engines. On your mark, get set … NAME!

Ok….so after reading the last contest (well after it had ended) and the responses left…I absolutely HAVE to try my hand at this…disclaimer…I’m a musician…not a writer. That said, here goes nothing!:
These are from lots of Irish/Scottish influence:
1) Pat McCleavage
2) Karessa Mabehind
3) Lefty Hangslow (not so sure about this one)
ok…mind’s out of the gutter now:
4) Lyric Sweetnotes
5) Viola Notsonice
ok..brain is fried. Possibly more later.

Oh, and after reading your husband’s names, I thought of Maxie Hooters. lol
Karen Rose on 29 Mar 2007 at 7:35 am #
Ha! Mr. Burns made me snort - not particularly ladylike, but then neither is Mr. Burns. Now, I haven’t had coffee yet. Karessa I had to read twice before I said Ohhh. Ha!

I can’t stop laughing. These are all great. Now, I can’t think of any others to add and I wished I really could remember all the times Bart Simpson called Moe’s with all those crazy names that he would shout out at the bar.
Emily on 29 Mar 2007 at 10:13 am #
LOL wow some of these are really funny.
Abril Knight
~I chose this name because when I think of a male character, I think of power, strength, gentleness, caring, and great love. I think of him as the female protector. Arbril means Open; Secure Protector. What a perfect name for such a character
Maisie Qinlan
~Maisie means Treasure, and in the story, the male character will learn she truly is his treasure.
Emily on 29 Mar 2007 at 10:16 am #
Dang I couldnt fit all I wanted to say in one so here is more.
Candice Darcy
~when I think of a female character in a romance novel, I think of her finding herself and who she is. The male character helps her long this path and eventually they both fall in love (as all romance novels end). Candice means glowing girl. In a story, I picture her being the complete opposite, shy and hiding. But in the story she will learn to be the glowing girl she was meant to be.
Emily on 29 Mar 2007 at 10:17 am #
Or how about
Emma Sage
~Emma means strength, again she would have to learn just how strong she truly can be when things are thrown her way. That she can pull through.
Faith Sanford
~the name says it all
Ramon Quinn
~Ramon means Wise Protector again with the protection thing.
Erica Ridley on 29 Mar 2007 at 10:38 am #
Great entries–everybody’s suggestions are so fun!
Here’s a few:
Anita Stallion
Amanda Dew
Bea Knotty
Clarissa Sweetcheeks
Tommy Tripod
Peter Cummings
Karen Rose on 29 Mar 2007 at 11:13 am #
One of my favorite Bart Simpson crank calls - Amanda Huggenkiss. Moe yells, “Amanda Huggenkiss! I wanna Amanda Huggenkiss!” Bart snickers. It’s gold.
So many fab names! How will I choose? Erica, do NOT send chocolate.

Suzanne Enoch on 29 Mar 2007 at 11:28 am #
There was an episode of “Mystery Science Theater 3000″ wherein the bad movie they chose to parody had a hero with the name Stone Mason. That sent Mike & the robots off on a quest to change their names to something more manly — Crow picked Drywall Nails, and Tom Servo chose Concrete Sledgehammer.
Names do invoke so much, don’t they? *g*
Kasey on 29 Mar 2007 at 11:44 am #
I don’t know if any of you have seen Spaceballs but it is a parady of Star Wars and a few other movies like Alien, Star Trek and Indiana Jones. Anywas, it has some great names in too, such as:
Dark Helmet
Lone Star
Princess Vespa
Colonel Sandurz
Barfolemew (Barf)
Dot Matrix
Prince Valium
President Skroob
Snotty
Pizza the Hut
and my favorite Major Asshole
Kasey on 29 Mar 2007 at 11:49 am #
I also found a website with all of Bart’s Prank Calls to Moe’s.
http://www.simpsoncrazy.com/information/lists/prank.shtml
There are some great ones.
KMB25 on 29 Mar 2007 at 11:58 am #

Amanda Tupper
Amanda Coppafeel
Amanda Shtup
Amanda Snugglewythe (ok, I think I’m done with the Amanda theme!)
Harry Wood
Seymour Cox
Seymour Butts
Seymour Wood …sorry, I’m thinking of all possible variations!
Cirius Mann (a very intense hero!)
And for a villain: he’s a Scottish assassin masquerading as a priest:
Father Saynae Moore
terrio on 29 Mar 2007 at 11:58 am #
I’ve seen Spaceballs several times. I don’t usually like that kind of thing but that one is hysterical.
You have to throw in the names from Princess Bride. Prince Humperdink anyone?
LOL! You ladies are so good at this.

Ann in IL on 29 Mar 2007 at 3:00 pm #
Anytime someone mentions unusual names, I think of three little girls that were treated in out ER. Twin girls named Tampaxa and Kotexa. And a little girl named Shithead (pronounced sha thayed).
We also have a local family with the surname of Tittsworth.
Truth is stranger than fiction.
Kasey on 29 Mar 2007 at 3:01 pm #
KMB25 - After you said that I had to look it up beucase I thought his name had a Duck in it.
Turns out his name is Long Duk Dong, but if you take out the Duk…..there you have it.
Julia London on 29 Mar 2007 at 3:02 pm #
Oh Ann, that’s just sad. Who would do that to their kids?
Karen Rose on 29 Mar 2007 at 3:24 pm #
Great names! I’m going to recruit Karen Hawkins to help me judge, just because she thought up such an … ahem … cute poem.
We’re a little low on villains. I felt like a dunce last year when I realized Cruella DeVille of 101 Dalmations fame was really Cruel And Evil. I said, “OH!” and my husband just gave me that look - you know the one when he’s thinking, “And she’s not even blonde. Sheesh.”
So how about some Cruellas - but original! Movie names and Bart-isms are not eligible!

From the sad but true life category, so I don’t think they qualify for the contest:
I went to school with Candy Bar and Patrick Henry.
And there was a lady named Ima Hor in our town. Really.
ladydawgfan on 29 Mar 2007 at 3:56 pm #
At a high school near mine, one of the band members was named Duke Earl. One of the Pom Pom squad members was Sue Pigg.
A local news channel has an anchor named Darren Parren.
Why are some parents so cruel and thoughtless???
Sabrina Jeffries on 29 Mar 2007 at 4:11 pm #
I LOVE Prince Valium and Dick Galore! Y’all are cracking me up!!
Karen Rose on 29 Mar 2007 at 4:14 pm #
And I thought my parents were bad for naming me “Karen” - no offense to Karen H or any of the other Karens out there in e-land. It’s just that every single class had at least one other Karen. I wanted to be … Julianna or Kristina or something lovely. But I was lumped in with the most popular name of the ’60’s. But it’s better to be ordinary than to have a horrible name like Ima Hor. That’s just sad.
Julia London on 29 Mar 2007 at 4:15 pm #
Governor Hogg named his daughters Ima Hogg and Ura Hogg back at the turn of the century. I went to school with Merry Christmas. But the one I thought odd was Elliot Elliot. Seems his parents lacked all imagination.
Karen Rose on 29 Mar 2007 at 4:18 pm #
One I could never believe was the James Bond villainess - Pussy Galore. Jay Leno joked that “Of course James was gonna get some! Her name was Pussy Galore!” I said, “OH!” and my husband just shook his head…
And as for villains, anybody with the name of Snake qualifies. (No, that was not a sexual allusion.)
Karen Rose on 29 Mar 2007 at 4:19 pm #
Elliot Elliot? Ouch. Karen wasn’t so bad.
SuzyQ on 29 Mar 2007 at 4:57 pm #
Karen R, don’t feel so bad, you have company. I never picked up on Cruella until you just posted it.
KMB25 on 29 Mar 2007 at 5:35 pm #
hmmm…villains are so much harder than the regular names!
SuzyQ on 29 Mar 2007 at 5:43 pm #
How about this guy for a villian:
Hunter DeKeeler
Karen Rose on 29 Mar 2007 at 5:56 pm #
I like Hunter DeKeeler!
And thanks SuzyQ - I am not alone in my Duh-dom over Cruella.

A tale. The Black Baron confiscates the vast dairy lands of Russell Strong, Duke of Everland, and imprisons him only to sign documents as the baron is missing a thumb and cannot forge them himself. The Baron soon becomes known as Baron Unbutterworthy by the duke’s mistreated tenants. The duke’s betrothed, Iris Swift, realizes his plight and quickly gathers, so to speak, the cattle to storm the estate. Steered in the right direction, the baron releases the duke and all goes well.

Karen, who would think a name like Dianna was common? If I see anyone with that name or any spelling of that name, chances are she was born in the early 50’s to early 60’s and her middle name is most likely Lynn. There was a movie star by the name of Diana Lynn (last name was Lynn) and mothers really liked her a lot! My mother had to get fancy and add that second “n” of course and I never get cute little things with my name on them.
Continued….
MizMacgyver on 29 Mar 2007 at 6:48 pm #
I always feel like someone is mad at me if they call me Dianna. That could be cos I am from WV and we do the southern thing with the first and middle names together. Alice Faye, Dianna Lynn, Debbie Jean, etc…. When grandma did it, I liked it. When my mother did it I was usually in trouble! LOL
Karen Rose on 29 Mar 2007 at 6:49 pm #
On my first date with my husband (25 years ago in January) we watched Bedtime For Bonzo with Diana Lynn and Ronald Reagan - and Bonzo, of course. She played a sweet female lead. My sister-in-law’s name was Diana Lynn. I like that name
Now in Bedtime for Bonzo, there is an actor named Walter Slezak. THAT sounds like a villain, but it’s his real name!
Name on, goddesses. There’s still four more hours and a few minutes to think up names. You’re doing great!

It’s officially midnight on the east coast, which is where I am, so the second Goddess “A Rose By Any Other Name” Contest is OOOOVER!!!
Thanks to all who entered their wonderful, witty names. I’ll be judging with great difficulty.
Give me a day to pull them all together and I’ll announce the winners by Saturday morning!
Again, many thanks to all.
