Create a Company with Me!

Help create company

I need help with something fun! I have decided that, for my Civil War story (aka, “Journey of Choice”), I will create my own company to be in the 18th Missouri regiment. This means I need 100 men (I probably won’t mention them all by name, but I need to know of them as an author, right?). And I have four. πŸ˜‰ I feel very dry when it comes to thinking up SO many names, so I’m asking you: what are some Civil War-era names? First and last. Shoot away!!!

    “A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches…”

    A name is only half the character–you get to add the other half! Have fun. =)
