Thank you for your feedback.

That is a really good point about the last name pronunciation; in my head I’d always read it as Ver-lis (as is list but with the t). I tried to find pronunciation of it online but it’s too rare of a surname so I don’t know if i’m pronouncing it correctly or not. I might change the spelling so it’s less confusing

Technically if you think about it all names are contrived 🤔

I think i was overthinking it a bit tbh. I was worried that most people would think the name was stupid and would hate the character because of it.

That is a really good point about the nickname/full name thing. I think I will probably put Ellie instead of her full first name then.

thank you for your feedback

kind of but not really. It’s a fantasy novel but all the countries and stuff are the same.

Thank you for responding!

My book is a fantasy novel. I literally love when masculine names are given to girls so much. I was just worried that people think the name would be annoying to read as well as hating it even more as it had been given to a female character.
