I really like both Slade and Shade a lot. I think I like Slade better. I also like Derious and Josiah. What about Joel or Jedidiah? Maybe not, but just a suggestion.Kate S (4readin)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03311476103331480075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652659672729617168.post-11705187118829786222012-09-05T13:39:51.978-04:002012-09-05T13:39:51.978-04:00First of all - the first thing that came to my min...First of all - the first thing that came to my mind was "Colin" - not sure what you think - but sharing anyway.

Hero will come first. =) I think the brother will be named after their father (making it all the worse for said father when good bro goes bad), and hero after mother's family.<br /><br />And this one will be out March 2014. So still a ways to go. Which is good, because I haven't finished book 2 yet, much less started on 3, LOL.Roseanna Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02245767775900250399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652659672729617168.post-60546219271302891862012-09-05T10:18:25.682-04:002012-09-05T10:18:25.682-04:00LOL.

Only problem with that one is that I have another novel planned with a "Darius" hero, and that one has symbolic significance, so I can't change it. But then, it's a "someday" novel, so...LOL.
