I truly believe that names help shape our destiny. When I’m introduced to a woman named Bambi, I assume she has a sense of humor. When I’m introduced to a woman named Prudence, I assume she’s more serious.
Belinda/Bee
Character names are even more key. Belinda or Bee has two names. This is because she has dual sides to her personality. She believes she should be prim and proper but she has a wild exhibitionistic side. Her two men refer to her by different names because they view her very differently.
Her name is also important because one of her greatest fears is not being good enough, being the alternate or ‘B’ choice. She wants to be a man’s first or ‘A’ choice.
Nicolas
Nicolas’s name has as much meaning as Bee’s. St. Nicholas aka Santa Claus makes good little girls’ dreams come true. If Bee becomes the good girl she thinks she should be, Nicolas, her billionaire, might give her everything she ever wanted—a permanent home, financial security, a forever love. However, Old Nick is also one of the names for the devil, hinting that maybe our billionaire has a dark side.
It is also important that he uses his formal name. He isn’t called Nick, a more intimate, friendly name. He prefers Nicolas, putting a barrier between him and others.
Hawke
Hawke is the opposite of Nicolas. Hawke isn’t our tattooed biker’s real name. This is a nickname. Hawke sees the bird as his symbol. Hawks fly freely, soaring above the ground, surveying the land below them.
As we find out in Sinful Rewards 2, he didn’t give himself this name. His best friend came up with Hawke. That he embraced this nickname and continues to use it today says much about his personality and his relationship with his friend.
Do you have a nickname? What would you like your name or nickname to convey about you?
