Writing Question

I need a name for this character and i'm totally drawing a blank!

Ok, so I'm writing a story about Greek gods and goddesses and I absolutely cannot come up with a name for this character. He's the son of Hades (Lord of the Underword) and Artemis (Goddess of the Hunt and the Moon). He has blond hair and dark brown eyes. I've been trying to find an old Greek name to call him, but nothing fits. Now, any name will work. Please help!

i've come up with a decidion. i am going with alexander. it's an old greek name, plus it can be shortened to alex, which is more modern. thank's for all you guys' help!

That sounds like a great story. I can't quite help you, however, some info on Artemis that you might not be aware of.

Artemis is also the goddess of young girls (before they reach womanhood) and virginity. Ergo, she has no lovers (though some suitors, mostly hunters, or stalkers ala link), and no children. That doesn't mean you can't write her as having a child, just something you might want to be aware of mythology wise.

But as for Greek names, I always like Ajax and Hector. Both of those are from the Trojan War.

Well, Athena "birthed" Athens just by getting poor Hephaistos overexcited, and from his seed sprouted Athens. Aphrodite was born out of Cronos' castrated man bits and froth of the ocean, and Athena burst out of Zeus's head, so I suppose any kind of birth is possible in Greek mythology.

Paris is also a good name for a boy. Not for a girl. The Hiltons tried it, and look how she turned out.

Sounds like a great story, sweets (:
Here are some suggestions from Greek mythology w/ the meanings:
1. Ambrose--immortal
2. Anderson, Andres, or Andie--manly, valiant, corageous
3. Angelo--heavenly
4. Anthony--worthy of praise
5. Leandro--lion man (lol)
6. Lysander (this is my personal favorite <3)--the liberator
7. Constantine--firm, constant
8. Damien (My other personal fave <333)--tamer divine power
9. Endymion--a beautiful youth
10. Hector--steadfast

Hope the list helps! (:
