So what’s in a name?

It’s funny, now that I look back on the creation of The Timeless Series. So many things literally just fell into place–seriously! Like the names for instance. I did research and found names I liked, names I thought would fit into the story well. I created my characters from out of thin air, their personalities developed as I wrote them, and well, as you’re going to read below, how they were written, and the meanings of their names…like I said, it all fell into place.

Let’s start with Cheyenne

The most amazing girl you will ever meet. She is loving and gentle, but is capable of killing you with her bare hands. She is the definition of beauty. There is no force on earth that can resist her charm. Has the best sense of humor. She is unknowingly seductive and irresistible. People on her good side will find her sensitive and passionate; but people on her bad side may find themselves with no limbs floating on a raft to Cuba. But over all, Cheyenne is just an all around sexy babe.

Urban Dictionary – Cheyenne

Colt

A smooth skinned, good looking, strongly built male who has no flaws. He is always smooth with the ladies and is greatly endowed.

Urban Dictionary – Colt

Callon – he was a bit more of a challenge…

Is a dual influence: at times you can be extremely happy, expressive, full of fun, and good-natured; yet at other times you find congenial association impossible, being controlled by self-pity, moods, and depression.

And of course my all time favorite one, courtesy of Jamie Huguenard:

A hot doctor who is much wiser and mature than his assumed age. He can create enchantments to protect those he loves. He loves deep and honors his commitments for life. He is loyal, kind, and would give the shirt off his back to help those in need (& that would be an amazing view!). He is sexy, strong, and full of endless passion in all of his endeavors! Very intelligent, witty, and resourceful. The kind of guy a girl dreams of having all to herself!

Example: “May I help you, madam?”    “Yes…I’d like a Callon to go, please!”

Kabalarians Definition – Callon

Daniel

The coolest and most awesome person you will ever meet! He’s cute and funny. He’s the best friend/boy friend that a girl could ever have.

An incredibly sweet, handsome, sexy man who can put a smile on your face with the greatest of ease. A Daniel has great strength of character and is an awesome friend who will always be by your side. He has an irresistible smile and the most beautiful eyes. A Daniel gives the best hugs in the world.

How interesting that the names and characters written as fairly close to their meanings…odd, I say, very odd indeed!
