Fabio oh Fabio, where art thou Fabio?

me: psst! we're coming out with a range of romance novels. is it ok if the heroes were called Miguel Falcon and Carlito Legarda? ;)
falx: Certainly! Only if I get to expertly bed the ladies with my rugged, manly countenance. My claim to fame: to be immortalized in a romance novel.
me: oh believe me these novels are going to be super trashy. you will not only bed them expertly SEVERAL times over, you will be doing it in Filipino.*

*for those who haven't heard/read a love scene in Filipino, I assure you that it's a lot more…erhm…mapusok.

Yes, my friends. Our sister company A&S Books is developing a line of trashy romance novels. The author of our first set is having trouble updating the names. We need 'guapo y guapa,' sosy-sounding names. (I'd like to retain Carlos' full name pero baka di na niya ako bigyan ng material for the joke books.)

So mga hijo y hija, don't be surprised to find your name or a variant of it in our pulp.

My shortlist of boy's names:
Juan, Rafael, Gabriel, Lorenzo, Marco, Manuel, Carlos— (shet ang popogi!)— Luis, Joaquin, Paolo Martin (yes Paul, that's you), Daniel…. I'll mix and match your names so that readers don't stalk you. You can romance the ladies in tandem, Rafael Ferraren. You too, Marco Bengzon.

I'm having more trouble with my shortlist for girls. Any suggestions?
Isabel, Teresa, Tanya, Marian, Sofia, Katharina, Dara, Rachel, Tara, Waya (just kidding! don't kill me. pero maganda sana.)….

Oh, Selena, there's a book called Ang Lihim ni Selena.

Kailangan din namin ng kontrabida names. May suggestions kayo? ;)
