My mortal enemy: Names!

@writing

Outlining a book with four chosen-one type protags. I don't like the names I came up with. I need better ideas, if you'd be so kind?

Harrison "Harry" Bach: Destined to become the Attorney Supreme. Terry's BFF
Tiresias "Terry" Garanhir: Chosen by the Drover's Crook. He talks to critters.
Minthe "Minty" Garanhir: Future Dragonslayer. She's Terry's twin.
Adulphine "Alfie" Mordred: Carries the Curse of Cadmus (she's becomng a dragon)

@SteposVenzny
Alfies's curse is a sign that she's the reincarnation of Cadmus Blair (think Salazar Slytherin). Considering that Alfie's draconic greed is well-established far before she starts turning into a dragon, I think these traits would have to be encouraged by her family. It'll be a point of tension with Terry, since his sister is spending a lot of time with a family that loudly hates that their daughter is required to take useless classes like Reading, History, and Natural Philosophy ☹️
