Fairy tale names sound old-fashioned and a little musical. Princesses and princes carry long, rhythmic names with a kingdom attached, fairies are named after flowers and light, and villains get dark, hissing sounds and a title that warns you about them.
Ideas for bedtime stories
- Let children pick a fairy name and make up what that fairy looks after: dew, lost buttons, sleepy kittens.
- Use the kingdom names as places on a map you draw together.
- Give the villain a reason to be grumpy. The best fairy tale villains are a little sad underneath.
