Obviously, Carly in the Titan books is named for my muse, my wife Carly. She is the one who pushed me to start writing and now I have and achieved more than I ever thought possible. So when it came to naming her and visualising her, there was really only one option.
For the Carly in the books, well, My protagonist needed a love interest. I did not want her to be the typical damsel in distress either. sure, she starts that way in "The Midnight Hour", but by the end of the book she is right there helping Michael with his plan for Mr. Midnight and also aiding him from the sidelines and putting herself in danger as well. Which, in my opinion, makes her the bravest in the story. She doesn't even have any powers! There will be plenty more from Carly in the subsequent books of course. In the new book she takes on major new roles by the end of the story. I also want to fully explore the challenge I could only imagine would exist in trying to date a superhero. This starts big time in "City Under Siege".
