RE:

Names For Ivy League Girls?

OK so, I'm writing a story and I need characters but, I can't think of names. Help please!! I need names like Leighton (Leightin) or Peytin or something like that. The charecter names HAVE TO BE PREPPY!!

I went to a private school that costs more than 95% of universities, so here goes some of the names I've encountered:

Margaret

Mary

Abigail

Charlotte

Madison

I can assure you that no Ivy League girl will be Leightin or Peytin. My girls who have graduated from Ivy Leagues assure me that their girlfriends would never have a wrongly spelled name. They probably won't get past the admission phase as the admissions staff may think they did not check their application forms for Typos.

My experience with their college friends indicate that they do not see names as a way to be 'creative' or 'different'. They have talents, sports, community services etc to demonstrate their 'creativity'. In fact, some kids with names that seem 'trailer trash' like 'Brandie' or 'Summer Sky' are known by nicknames and will even pay for court ordered name changes to classic names like Anne or Margaret often before they graduated from the Ivy Leagues.
