[Stylist] Changing character names

[anniecms64 at gmail.com]

Hi Vejas-
I put a considerable amount of time into the names of my characters. I research the  history  of the name before I even begin a story. That said, names can and will change but hopefully before the stories reach other readers. It's your baby, do what you need to do to satisfy. 😊
Best,
Annie

Subject: [Stylist] Changing character names

Hi, 
Hope everyone is having a great Sunday! Unfortunately I can't make it to the writers' division gathering because I'll be coming home from a trip, but I look forward to the one next month! 
I just have a quick question about character names. Let's say you had a main character named, as an example, Amelia, but then later, in real life, you met and became closer to someone named Amelia. Would you keep the name, or change it? Some names are very common, so I was just curious to see what others thought. 
Thanks, 
Vejas
