  1. Entering from the US

    It’s been a long week and I’m too tired to try to be creative. Thank you for the opportunity!

    • From Hungary
      Fantasy name: Csenge Tövisházy

      (Csenge is a feminine given name of Hungarian origin, interpreted as meaning “bell” or “to ring/tinkle” It is associated with a bright, cheerful sound. Tövisházy means: From House of Thorns).

      Thank you!

  2. United States reader here. I’d be Cordelia, after the daughter of King Lear (but would not be transported into the play, thank you very much!)

  3. I’m from the US. Honestly, I would probably keep my own name. Anastey is unique and I think it could fit in about everywhere.

  5. I’m from the United States.
    I would go by Carolina, a version of my name that I used in all of my Spanish classes.

  8. Canada, and I’m pretty sure if I landed in any of the worlds I read about that I wouldn’t live long enough for anyone to actually learn my name. So something like “Bystander Casualty #3”?

  12. United States

    My own name is hilarious and I love it, but most people now don’t like to use the title “Mrs.”. If I could be transported into a Jane Austin novel, I would love being called Mrs. Bachelor all the time! who doesn’t want to be a walking oxymoron?

  16. From the US.

    Caltryx, Keeper of the Sacred Flame, Sun Sword, and Empress of Mythos

    When I was first asked to order business cards, I asked what title I should use since my HR title was nothing like what I did. My manager said to just pick something. I mocked up something similar for fun, using my real name, of course. My manager was less amused than I was.

  22. I live in the United States.

    I would go under the name of Nachia. a play on my great aunts name Nacha.

  23. Always my given name, Doni. It’s so unusual and I have loved it since I saw it in Clan of the Cave Bear when I was much much younger. I am especially fond of it being linked to its association with divine justice and moral integrity. I do consider that association to be particularly valid when I consider myself wronged.😉
    United States

  24. I’m from the US! And if I had a fantasy name – it would be Madelyn – always been my favorite name. And go by Maddy. ❤️

  26. I live in the U.S. and my name would be Eryna instead of my usual Erin. Lady Eryna sounds kind of cool to me!

  28. Bonjour from France,

    I guess I would keep my name, unless I needed an alias.

    Then I may choose an indestructible name for luck, like Ilea, or Maggie 😉 Because I’m not superstitious, but living in a fantasy land, I may change my mind…

  29. Germany
    Marian the persistent from the Green Forests

    The 27.2. is the day i met my husband und also later on our Wedding Date.

    If this is not a good Omen…

    Good luck to all!

    And thank you very much for a Little Hope and Happiness.

  32. USA
    Simone – wouldn’t change it. While in my mind I’d like to be Kate in reality I am more like an animal mage in Hidden Legacy or Adeline from the Inheritance 🙂

  36. Entering from the United States! If I was transported to a fantasy world, I don’t think I have just one name, I’d give myself a different name for every area I visited.

  39. Entering from the US. My name would probably stay the same, I think learning to answer to a new name while also wrapping my mind around my situation would break me.

  41. Oh geez! I’m so bad at picking names for myself! It took me a long time to love my own.

    Maybe I’ll pick one that has a quality I aspire to, and say Grace.

    I used to have a hairdresser named Altagracia, which is a name I absolutely love. The hairdresser was originally from the Dominican Republic, but lived in New York City.

    I still live in the USA.

  42. I live in the United States.

    My name would have to stay Stephanie if I fell into a story. I couldn’t possibly remember everything about the world if I also had to remember I changed my name. Thanks for the giveaway!

  43. I am in the US. I, too, would not survive in many of the books I read so Casualty xxx would suit me fine.

  46. Hello there from the Basque Country, Spain! No idea what my fantasy name would be, for sure not as cool as Maggie The Undying, maybe Buttercup? I love the princess bride☺️

  47. i am from Texas and i want my fantasy name to be wynd. i want to be able to hear the music of the wind and send my own song off to far off places.

  49. I’m from the US. I would pick the name Corinna. I’ve always liked the name and always thought if I wrote a book, that would be the protagonist’s name. I have no idea where I came by the name. I didn’t know anyone with that name, and I first thought of it when I was 8 or 9.

  50. USA
    CaMaRa: Reader of Books, Paladin of Libraries, Member of the Book Devouring Hoard, and devotee of the Goddess of Literacy

  51. Entering from: U.S.

    My name would be Suzy (not very original, oh well)!

    Thanks for this opportunity— so excited to read this book!

  52. I’m from the US. In any other world than Innkeeper, I would choose Caldenia to remind me to be fierce and cunning, but in a regal way.

  54. Here from the dreary east cost of the US

    Kiera Meridius Desomus Prime Will-the-sun-ever-shine-again? First of Her Name

    Lady of eternal Rain, She-Who-Worships-the-Sun, Keeper of Maximus He-Who-Flees-Before-Joggers the cowardly German Shepherd

  55. I am too used to my name to change it. When i played video games I used the name ADozer. So Anne it would be. I’m in the US and then Virginia.

  57. entering from the Netherlands

    Aunt Carol the Frazzled Bogwitch, Supreme Hag, Esteemed member of the Council of Cat Servants.

  59. I live in Canada. I think I’d like the name Cat (or Kat, no preference to spelling).

    Love your books!

  60. Entering from US… and I would totally keep my name Kelly… You don’t see any of those are main characters and if I do see them as side ones… they seem to always spell it wrong… OK not wrong, just the alternative spelling lol.

  62. From Spain

    Name: Ophelia because of my favorite song and character from Hamlet.
    Cannot wait to read This Kingdom!!

  67. From the US. In any world other than Garth Nix’s Sabriel/Abhorsen, I would either be Sabriel or Lirael. I use it in basically EVERY game or D&D Session I am in.

  71. US entry!

    Name: Terrabinaphim, Keeper of Keys

    (Rather enjoyed some of the naming conventions from the Dragon Keeper series and this is what came to mind 😅)

  73. I might just stick with my given name of Richard. Or if something more elaborate use my gaming name. Demonwarcat. Responding from the UK.

  74. Hello 🙂
    I was born and raised in Germany but I now live in the USA.
    My adopted transported-into-a-book name would be Lyra. Not quite as impressive as Rhae”zalydrix, I know, but my true full name can only be revealed to the Master of Koriiynn-B’laat.

  75. lady of the soggy isles, really?

    I’m from USA, my name is Picham Picham from the land of Mina Mina Mina

    (not entering give away, just wanted to type in my kids first words)

    • I has rained every day since the beginning of 2026 here. On record.

      Some very soggy isles indeed 😀

  76. Country would be Germany
    and the name i would love to go with is a mix from to of my favorite name i game with so Novva Lichtfunkel

    cant wait to get my hands on the book!! :3
    also thanks a lot for this opportunity <3

  78. US reader here. My name would depend on what kind of world I ended up in. Similar to our own? Lucy Greer (Lucy after Lucy Pevensie and because it is so much easier for people to understand than my own name, and Greer is a family name). Or Searcy Collins (an author name I made up long ago).

    Fantasy world? Ilirien, which is a name I’ve used online for eons.

    Given the books I read? Jane Doe is probably the most likely. 😆

  81. Oops
    United States
    Marsha says
    February 20, 2026 at 10:13 am
    Mak’la of the wandering soul
    Daughter of the Goddess Mal’asha of the threads of
    Life.

  82. From the UK. I’d borrow from Welsh and be Seren.

  84. Entering from Canada.

    My name would be Annie.

    So excited to read this new book and escape from this messed up world.

  85. Entering from Canada

    Amelia – would be my name in another universe, what can I say Im boring Id want it close to my name

  88. Entering from Iceland.

    My fictional name would be Sam, as my actual name is unpronounceable. It would be a nice change 🙂

  89. 1. UK
    2. Julie the Mysterious! I’d like to cultivate an air of mystery, mainly because in real life I’m pretty much an open book! 😆.

  94. I just learned my dog’s bridgerton name is Lord Chewbacca Cheeseton of shishtzu so I guess I’d be Lady Cheeseton. From the US

  98. I’m from the U.S. and my fantasy book name would be Emmeline Lacewood, Lady of Literature and Laziness from the Kingdom of Hobbywoods; besties with the Duchess of Fiber Arts and Friendliness and Baroness of Baking and Brilliance.

  99. I’m from Romania. My name would be Elisa. Not original since it’s mostly my own name, but I would just forget to listen when called anything else!
