CAN YOU HELP NAME MY SHEIKH?

Date: 1st December 2023, Posted by mollie

Hello, lovely readers! Today, A question that has surely crossed the minds of many avid readers and dreamers who love Sheikh romances is how do authors come up with their names?

Picture this: a dashing, mysterious sheikh with a heart of gold and a whirlwind of romance surrounding him. But here’s the twist – what would you name this captivating character?

Can you help me find the perfect name for our charming playboy sheikh? (read to the end to discover my dilemma)

1. The Enigmatic Sheikh:
Our sheikh is undoubtedly an enigma, with a magnetic presence that draws everyone towards him. As we delve into his character traits, we realize that his name must reflect his allure, his charisma, and his undeniable charm. Will it be a name that rolls off the tongue like a gentle desert breeze, or perhaps something that echoes the richness of his heritage?

2. A Name that Conjures Adventure:
Our playboy sheikh is the epitome of adventure, whisking us away to far-off lands and enticing us with tales of daring escapades. Should his name reflect his thirst for excitement and his ability to transport us to magical realms? Perhaps a name that evokes visions of exotic landscapes and thrilling encounters?

3. Balancing Tradition and Modernity:
While our sheikh may embody the spirit of tradition, he also possesses a modern sensibility that adds depth to his character. So, should his name be steeped in tradition, connecting him to his ancestral roots, or should it reflect his progressive outlook on life? Striking the perfect balance between these elements can elevate his character to new heights.

4. The Power of Alliteration:
In the realm of literature, alliteration has a magical quality that can make a character’s name unforgettable. It adds an extra layer of charm and vivacity to our sheikh’s persona. Think of names like Sheikh Samir or Sheikh Zayn, where the consonant sounds dance in harmony, leaving a lasting impression on our hearts and minds.

5. Captivating Readers Worldwide:
As we ponder the perfect name for our playboy sheikh, we must also consider its global appeal. A name that transcends borders and resonates with readers from various cultures will undoubtedly enhance the universality of our story. Names that have a global charm igniting curiosity and capturing imaginations worldwide may be ideal.



Claimed by the Sheikh

In Claimed by the Sheikh: A Secret Baby Billionaire Romance

You meet a grief-stricken Sheikh Tariq na Hassir, the formidable ruler of the Kingdom of nAvana and his younger brother Anwar.

Tariq arrives in Paris to claim his older brother’s child after a car crash killed his parents–only to find out from the hospital that the child isn’t their biological son. It’s Tariq’s son with his former lover.

Three years ago, after being banished by Tariq from his desert kingdom, renowned architect Melanie Jones secretly gave her baby to Tariq’s childless brother Zayed and his wife, in a swap the world was never supposed to discover.

The tragedy pulls her back to the world that rejected her and the man who abandoned her—the only man capable of turning her carefully controlled world upside down.

Tariq will do whatever it takes to protect his legacy, including claiming Melanie as his bride and his son as heir before scandals ensue. But Melanie has other plans for her future—a westernised life where she’s free to operate her own business and control her own life.



I’m putting the finishing touches to Stolen by the Sheikh (another Secret Baby Billionaire Romance) where Anwar’s story continues.


Stolen by the Sheikh

In life and love, it’s never too late for a second chance. . .
This is not one of those times.

Fiercely independent contemporary artist, Lucy Ford was absolutely content with her life—until the day Anwar na Hassir strolled into her gallery and back into her life.

She had dreamed of being a mother and would soon have a son. Being a single mum wasn’t the happy ending she had visualised, but at least she had someone to love. Someone of her own. Someone she could keep forever.

As long as the child’s father never found out. Anwar could not, would not, must not ever know the truth. Not if she was to keep her child.

A widower with two daughters, Anwar was as formidable as Lucy was freewheeling. Luring Lucy to his desert Kingdom, somewhere between the magic of the desert and the stroll along the ocean, she lets him steal her heart. Only to discover that, love once given, can never be returned.

A sensuous tale of modern love, career-crossed relationships, the heady magic of instant attraction, loss, and the unwavering faith that sustains them—even in the darkest hour.


 In Stolen by the Sheikh the next hero in the third book in the Sheikh’s Untamed Brides series, Bought By the Sheikh, makes a cameo appearance.



I thought I had a name that was perfect for my Playboy sheikh—Amir. But advance readers have suggested I change his name from Amir, as it is too similar to his older brother’s name Anwar.
