Names you thought of for your MC but ended up not using and why?

Down below are the names that I had thought of for my MC

Arwen 

I used this name when I was in the plotting stages of my WIP, however when I first started outlining the name didn’t sound right for her anymore, so I ended up scrapping it and began the search for something else. 

Marble 

I didn’t want to use this one because it didn’t sound right for my main character, but I do plan on using it soon for another character’s name that will be appearing in a later book 

Shimmer 

This is another name that didn’t feel right as the main character’s name, but like Marble it will be used in a later book for another character 

Gimmick 

I ended up using this name in book 2 for a brand-new character that my MC meets along with an old familiar face from her past that is linked to this new character who happens to be a witch. 

Zetta 

I can’t pronounce my ‘Z’s’ very well and they come out sounding like ‘S’s’ so that’s why I ended up scrapping this name because I wanted to tell people my main character’s name besides constantly telling them her assassin’s name and I knew if I said the name people would mishear it and think it was her name instead of the actual name.
