Aidan of the tavern
Auror
Okay folks, its like this. In my fantasy world, currently in production, nearly all my characters have made-up names, people like Ruby Valthara, and Lyrriman, you get the idea. However, a few (and I should point out its a small few) have names from our world. Its not like I have Bob the adventurer and Kirsty the mage, but I have a guy called Sigmund and even a guy called Armando in there. I'm not using common names I should pooint out. The question is, can I get away with this? Would you as the reader find it jarring to have a mix of names like this? I personally feel alright about it but I'm still a bit of a greenhorn, so I want an outside opinion or 3.
