Help[Opinions] Re: parents names for india,julia,luke and adrian russo
in reply to a message by isla_may
I'm honestly so confused about all this. Are you looking for an Italian name for the father, given that he's originally from Italy? (That would make sense) Is the mother German and you're looking for a German or at least a Germanic based name?
Do the kids grow in Germany? Their names seem completely mismatched for their background. They're just not very believable, given what you have said about the parents, even if they migrate to the States, for example. More information is needed as well. The setting (when and WHERE does the story take place?) Description of the parents (What are they like, their characteristics? Anything!)
India for example, certainly sticks out, even if the ancestral background hadn't been revealed. It seems so out of left field and "free-spirited" compared to her siblings' names, which are more traditional. I'd strongly suggest to rethink the names you have for the children first before looking for names for the parents.
Julia could work (Would be said more as YOO-lya), along with Adrian (again, said differently) and Luke would be more believable as either Lukas or Luca. In any case, it sounds funny when paired with the surname Russo. Julia does as well, but isn't as bad.
