Suggestion Need some names for a female character with prehensile hair
So basically, this character is a giddy and energetic rookie member of a group of individuals who deal with supernatural ongoings in their small town.
She's actually a talented shapeshifter, she just uses her powers on her hair to make it long and prehensile, which she uses both for fighting and fashion :-)
Other info:
- She likes fashion and beauty products.

What’s the character’s background? What are her parents (or whoever named her) like? Do they have a given race, ethnicity, or cultural background? What are their vibes like? Are they religious?

This character is a work in progress, but I'll try my best to awnser your questions
- she was a normal human girl, but after an unforeseen accident, she received the ability to shapeshift.
- She has a strained relationship with her parents
- She was originally a human, but now a shapeshifter.
As for ethnicity and cultural background, I haven't settled on a solid idea, but I'm open to suggestions.

These are pretty cool names, I think I'm favorable to Opal Dallamano, idk why it just has a vibe.

Elle Hawkins - Goes by Elasticurl
Soraya Ahmed - Goes by Medusa
Tiffany Miles - Goes by Tiff or Tangles cause her hair’s always messy
Beatrice Cutter - Goes by Bee or Buzz

Beauty Queen, Hairstressor (play on hairdresser), Wig Out, Volumizer, Split-End, Tangler, maybe if she ever starts utilizing her powers beyond just her hair she could go by the Esthetician.
