Hi! I'm here to leave a quick review!!
Anyway let's get right to it,
“What be your name; I must know the name of the violet eyes.” She turned to him. “You know not my name, nor will I tell you.” He asked “You tell me not your name; perhaps you’ve no name at all.” She responded “I have a name, which you know not.” “Then tell me, violet eyes, what must I do to hear your name?” She answered “It is simple, tell me your name, only then shall you hear mine.” Daniel said to her “I be Daniel Ramsey, son of Jonathan and Evelyn Ramsey. Will you tell me your name now violet eyes?” She giggled “What be my name, you ask. I am Acayla raise by Jacob.” He repeated her name “Acayla, I have never heard it before. What be the meaning of this strange name?” She responded “It matters not to me, nor my father.” “Can a name not have a meaning?” “I know not Daniel Ramsey.”
Okayy...so it appears this one is a bit of an excerpt from a larger piece, so that makes this quite interesting to review especially since there is no indicator to let us know where this snippet has been taken from nor do we have any sort of real context as to what might be going. Considering how short this snippet here is, I don't think that's the best idea here because it is really hard to tell what might be going on.
Moving past that, the first thing I notice here is the lack of formatting here. These lines of dialogue all need to be in their own paragraphs when a different person speaks. Not just for the general sort of rule when writing, it just helps a lot to a reader to be able to follow a piece a lot more effectively, so that should be looked into here.
Besides that this particular scene seems like a simple sort of introduction between characters but one that appears to be a little bit stylized to be a bit different, the phrasing of some of those questions seems deliberately different from the norm..which was the most interesting thing from this bit so far.
Aaaaand that's it for this one.
As always remember to take what you think was helpful and forget the rest.
Stay Safe
