What should I name my HEROI..

My story is set in 1835 England (would this be an alright period to set a gothic romance???)

My heroine is a young 15-ish year old girl who is rebellious, free-spirited, rather peevish and passionate. She has long black frizzy hair that is untamable as her spirit, her skin is pale, emphaizing the blacknes of her eyes...... She goes to live under the gaurdianship of her distant cousin, Mr. Hawthorne, and falls in love with him.... but she is too young. He leaves on business and returns years later to finds her a lady--but society has tamed her, made her miserable and all...but yah, this is the basic flow of the story. What name do you think would best suit a girl situated in a dismal village and dwelling in a dismal manor?

Her last name is to be Wilmott (unless anyone has a better sugggestion)

Isobel Wilmott

Heather Wilmott

Evelyn Wilmott

Courtney Wilmott

Kathleen Wilmott

Rebecca Wilmott

Cadence Wilmott

Ralphina Wilmott

Wenonah Wilmott

Dorathea Wilmott

Ruth Wilmott

From your list I would go for Ruth (after all her parents named her, and the Bible was a huge influence) which actually goes very nicely with Wilmott.

Personally I like Heather, but that was not known as a girls name in the 1800s. You want to try for some authenticity - which is why I think Ruth is a good choice.

If you want a more modern name, I would choose Catherine - a typical name for that era - and which also goes very nicely with Wilmott.
