Choose a name people would actually use
Choose a name for an invented person and decide which relatives use it, what place they associate with it, and when a nickname feels welcome. The revised examples are English fiction.
Try the name in dialogue and records
Try the same name in a greeting, a note from a cousin, and a record of who has agreed to take on a responsibility. Where does a nickname sound affectionate, and where does it give a false impression of authority? When an inherited name is shared by two people, give the reader a reason they can tell which relative has been called.
