Competition: Name that character

OK, so if you're here you'll know I'm writing a book, and damn, I'm having fun (so please ignore any whinging you hear from this general direction). I'm nearly finished the first round of edits and I've realised I need to rename a number of characters.

And I need help.

So I'd like you to suggest some new names for me in the comments below and I'll pick the best entries and call my characters after that.

What's the prize I hear you ask?

You'll have the knowledge that one day, maybe, with a serious amount of luck, the names you pick might appear in a published novel. Yep, it's an awesome prize.

So, I need you to pick a new last name (or even a first name if you don't like the ones I've picked) for each of the three characters below. All names need to start with a different letter of the alphabet (except for A, B, H, L, M, P, Q, S, W, or X) and not end in the letter S (possessives get messy).

To enter, write your new names in the comments below this post, along with the reason you've chosen the name (optional). I'll pick the names I like best after there are a reasonable number of entries (and I may pick and choose from the entries) and let you know in a later post.

So, go to it - enter away!

Characters

Dr Matheson XXX - Mayan archaeologist at Oxford. Discovered a jade mask in Mexico in the 1970s and smuggled it back into England. A bit of a prat really and now safely dead (but he gets a lot of book time). Needs a caucasian name.

Dr Honouria YYY - A lecturer in pre-history at Oxford and the neice of Matheson. Also one of his heirs. Straight forward, intelligent, amused. Also gets a reasonable amount of book time. Any sort of name (though obviously her mother was caucasian).

Ms Harriette ZZZ - Main character's best friend. Loves to have fun, but runs a successful executive realestate business. Into designer shoes and air kisses but a straight up trustworthy friend (any sort of name, upper middle class and went to school with Xavia).
