I need help with names for my book and appearances?
So, I want to become an author one day, but for the time being, I'm only in high school, and I write amateur novels for fun! I have a whole idea in my head, and characters chosen, yet I can't officially decide on exact character looks and names.
My main character is a girl, age 16 and her name is Shay. She has really long, curly brown hair (loose curls more towards the bottom, when i say curly). She's the more quiet type. How does that sound? Just tell me your person opinion whether you think the name suits her or not. And if you have better name ideas, great! The thing I need help with though, is her EYE COLOR. I know its a little thing, but I cannot decide! Not blue, but either brown or hazel green....I can't quite decide.
Now for the guys. There are two of them. THIS is the hard part for me. I'm not good at making guy characters. Its basically their names. I want REALLY UNIQUE UNCOMMON names, yet still GOOD names. Also as for their appearances they are supposed to look alike, but not totally alike, but the same sort of hair ~ they're both around 16, though, I'm not giving away the story line (and its long and confusing) but one of the guys is dead, one is alive, but they're not twins, they look alike. So basically they look almost the same, I'm thinking of hair color and eye color.
Personality: they are the very kind, caring, sweet type. that sorta thing. now I was thinking of blonde hair maybe? light blonde, honey blonde, I'm not sure. And long hair, no justine bieber (oops i mean justIN bieber :P) hairstyle, but you know, sorta longish in that way (not LONG long...you know what i mean hopefully:))
and now for the names. Like I said unique yet good. I was thinking but I couldn't quite think. Zane is uncommon, but does it match the character? Finn is a named I've always liked, and I've never met anyone named Finn or heard of that name in any book or on any tv, so its pretty uncommon. But any other better names? sweet names ect? and no ugly names. or well not GOOD names i guess. or uncommon names such as "john, james, michael, tyler, robert, william, david" ect. and I just thought of "Sam" not as in samuel, but plain old "Sam" cuz it SORTA sounds sweet-ish, but I dont know. so please, unique uncommon names for guys! good names! that suit their personality! thanks:D
and please NO...no spam. no pointless answers. no useless answers. no rude answers. no sarcastic answers. no answers that aren't answering my question.
only answer this if you're gonna give me name ideas, appearances ideas, and/or comment on what I said. otherwise don't answer or i'll be mad
Also, I KNOW this is my book, that I should be the one naming them, but I sort of have name ideas, but I want people to critique them and comment on them, ect, and I may not even USE the names, but they'll give me ideas, I just want an idea, or an actual name, I may actually use the name! Once again, I'm an amateur author, and I just would like some help.

I'll give you a list of names and you can choose which ones you like best hope this helps.
Elias, Aitan, Mateus, Dane, Ira (Mateus is pronounced ma-tae-ous)
I know its not much and not great but i cant really think right now.
I have seen these eyes thatr are so beautiful they arent like jusst one color but more like a mix of colors some brown some blue some silver and some green. I know it doesnt sound pretty but you just have to see it to understand i guess. I dont know if you want her eye like that but if not I would say it should be silver.
And as for the guy i thingk this guy i saw once was kinda cute but he kinda has the justin bieber hairstyle, well any ways hears a pic at I know its long. sorry. hope i helped but i doubt it.
Heres a better website but you have to scrole down he's Kole

Twilight. Werewolves do this each and all of the time. Carrie Vaughn's Kitty Norville sequence. comparable element. Any of the Anita Blake books or the Merry Gentry books via Laurel ok Hamilton, yet possibly the later books interior the Merry Gentry sequence specifically (while the sidhe are regaining powers, or procuring powers that have not been familiar from in the previous). The Bicentennial guy via Isaac Asimov. previous guy's conflict via John Scalzi. Heck, the Dune sequence (any e book) the place the intake of Melange (Spice) transformations the visual attraction of someone and could furnish them powers and prolonged understanding.
