 Small Town Folk (2007)
IMDB rating: 3.90
Plot: There is a place… a place called Grockleton, wherein, high on a hill-top stands the lonely Beesley’s Manor, governed by the villainous ‘Landlord’ and his lowly male counterparts (Pooch, Pike and the diesel-swilling Dobbin). Always on the look-out for new female company to help carry on the Beesley name, the Landlord keeps a watchful eye over Grockleton and anyone who dares to enter his land. When three improbable heroes stumble unsuspectingly into the Beesley’s realm they are cruelly snared into a menacing hunt and an unstoppable frenzy of heart racing mayhem! Will the Landlord triumph and collect his ‘trophies’ (and maybe even a future bride?), or can the unlikely trio be victorious against him in his own game?…

Would like your opinion on my character names please! (a tad long.)?
hello yahoo answerers. i would like your advice. i’m writing a novel for fun, and i want to know if you could actually see these names on real people or not. i would also like to know if you think the names fit the character and also if you like them. oh, and suggestions are appreciated!
each name is open for discussion except for the first two main characters first names.
i dont feel comfortable putting my plot on here, sorry. this is kind of my baby. but you should still be able to help adequately. please and thank you! i will try to keep it short and sweet with the descriptions
(main character) F: Elliott Davenport/Lennox/Martin (cant decide) 16
……..she’s kind of hot headed, and sarcastic but very book smart and street smart. that makes her kind of an outcast in the small town she lives in. black hair, gray eyes.
(main character) M: Hunter White 17
………elliott’s love interest. he’s like a regular kid, but because he plays sports and stuff he’s super popular in their small town.
(main character) M: Jonah Montgomery 16 (he’s a pessimist, and he’s more book smart. he and elliott get along swimmingly. lol) elliott’s best friend
(main character) F: Tannis Lionakis 16 (veeeery eccentric. she’s a wiccan.) i love her name but im not sure if people will pronounce it right. it’s like a hermione situation. she’s like a walking useless facts database. elliott’s other best friend
Elliott’s family:
father: Christopher. he’s a nightclub owner. dies
mother: Aimee Tierney? (she’s irish, and also has a twin sister) stewardess. dies.
aunt: Aislinn Tierney? (elliott’s mom’s twin) sweet. 50’s mother type. stay at home mom
uncle: Ivan Smirnov/Aleksandrov. he’s actually russian. the way he and his wife meet is explained. he;s not super mean, but he is very strict. firefighter
cousins: Paolo 16 (he’s a douche 100%), Liliya 5 (energetic, sweet, little kid but she is sick), Kyle 10 (paranoid, shy)
and that’s all folks. for now. sorry it was so long. any answers will be greatly appreciated, and rude answers will be dealt with accordingly.
EDIT EDIT EDIT!
to answer your questions guys:
her mother’s last name is going to be hyphenated, i just didnt know what i was going to name their father yet.
the same goes for her uncle and aunt. i just wanted to make sure i had maiden names, just in case.
and i WILL add a jewish character! i want it to be multicultural. any suggestions?
also, Tannis’ name is pronounced like Janice. like the model janice dickenson. her back story is that her dad is greek, obviously, and her mother is egyptian. they met in egypt and that is the only name that they could agree on. she’s modeled after my friend who is both greek and egyptian. i like the nickname idea.
also, i wanted some traditional irish names, but i wanted them to start with the same letters as well for the mother and aunt. suggestions are WONDERFUL!
oh, and thank you guys for the answers so far!
ONE MORE THING! lol.
sorry guys
elliott is originally from new york, but her parents die in a plane crash and she has to move with her aunt and uncle. so sorry if her name seems weird. it really isnt a small town name.
MORE EDITS!
yeah, the cousins will all have the last name of the uncle. i tried to find names that were either irish, or russian, or an adaptation. but i see what you are saying about Paolo! lol. i looked it ip, and it said russian, but it does kind of remind me of pablo. lol
oh and her father is just a regular old american guy. he’s of english ancestry, but he’s never lived over there, or doesnt have an accent. her mother doesnt have an accent either.
but her aunt does, and her uncle does. they just moved over to america within the last year.
1) Elliot Vempton. (Combined the first choice, sorta.)
2) Don’t particularly like the name Hunter, but it could work.
3) Jonah seems like a girl’s name to me. I could see a boy named Aidan being a book smart kid that sees the glass half empty.
4) Tannis seems like a last name, sorry. Uhm, how about Jaide? Or Alessandra? Sandy or Alice as a nickname? Or maybe she gives herself a name, cause she’s weird. Like, kitty? lol. kidding.
5) Father and mother’s name are fine. Tierney is okay… wouldn’t they share the same last name as their daughter though? aha. (Vempton)
6) Aislinn is way too weird. Seems like a medicine. What about Aubrie?
7) Uncle is fine.
Paolo… what about Marco? (; And how about Lilyan? Kyle is fine.. or maybe Paranoid Pete?!
Answer mine, please? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index; _ylt=AkXH81A7LhigSM2rjWIW3P_sy6IX;_ylv=3 ?qid=20091213121134AAmxRNj

I like all the names except for elliot and hunter.
For elliot i was thinking a name more of along the lines of : Leah, Mellisa, Viola, Violet or Violetta.
For Hunter I was thinking maybe:Stephen or Leo.
I’m also writing a novel right now( about bullying)
My main character is Jewish. Maybe you could make one of your characters a jew( Just a suggestion)
Hope I helped.
P.S. Plz tell me how your novel turns out.

I actually like the names Elliott and Hunter, contrary to the earlier answerer. In fact, I had a character named Elliott who was very similar to yours; she was rough and tough and quick to fight, but loved to read. I also like all the other names, and they seem to fit the characters.
For Elliott’s surname, I think Davenport fits best.
How DO you pronounce the Wiccan girl’s name?
neokitty (searchbars, anyone?) | Dec 13, 2009
While Elliott isn’t a name I would have thought up, I don’t hate it. I actually like the ring of Elliott Lennox. If they live in a small town, Davenport might sound a bit too snooty. If her uncle is Russian and has such a Russian name, why wouldn’t anyone else in her family? Just curious. Maybe you can give her father a more Russian-sounding name.
I don’t like Hunter White, though. The first name’s fine, but White as a last name seems a bit dull. And I’m not crazy about Aislinn.
Another question. Paolo sounds Hispanic or Latino. Is he the son of the Russian uncle? Maybe Paolo could be changed to be a bit more identifiable with his Russian heritage if Ivan is his father.
