Have you ever read a book where the main character shares your name?
I created this series of posts as a way to keep track of names and books in order to provide a resource for those interested in reading books with main characters who share their name ie their own “name-alikes”. This list is a work in progress and I hope that it will be useful.
This post may contain affiliate links, which means that I may receive a commission if you make a purchase using these links at no additional charge to you. See the Disclosure for more details.
NB. Titles that I have personally read & recommend have a red heart emoji ❤️
