I need help choosing names for my characters?

I have been writing a novel, and now I am coming close to finalizing it. I have a few names picked out for characters but i am starting to feel like i need 'bigger' more important or unusual sounding names.



My first character (I was going to name Alex Hardgrave) is a Intelligent character, who is sixteen years old and a scientist. He has blond hair, blue eyes (I always imagined him looking like Alex Pettyfer) and is stubborn (anyone who has read Artemis Fowl, I want him to be like that, or Jace out of City of Bones) He is hard to get along with, but once you have become close to him, he opens up and reveals secrets.... ( I know that's cheesy but bare with me!!!)



My second character (I was going to call Storm Moore) is a fiery character with a bad temper. She has auburn hair and green eyes. She is quite reserved and quiet, but if you anger her in any way... lets just say you might have less teeth by the end of the argument. Her mother has remarried, after her husbands death, and has a child, who is her half sister. She can read minds.



My third character (I was going to call Amy White) relies on her looks to get her by. She has the 'cheer leader' qualities, and is confident in everything she does. Alex is her 'brother' (not really but she was brought up with him and so thinks of him as her big brother) Amy can be snobby and fickle, but if you need her, she is there for you.



My fourth character (I was going to call Stanley Johnson) is a computer nerd. He is the techie and has quite a brain himself. He is always in a playful war against Alex to out do him in the latest technology gossip. He is a typical loser; glasses, plays chess ect. (Not trying to offend anyone with glasses - i wear them myself!) madly in love with amy (or whatever her name will be)



And finally, a minor character (who still plays a important roll in betraying my characters at the end of the novel) is George White (might of guessed, is amy's brother) He is a interested young boy of twelve, who walks in the shadows of Alex (who his sister adores) and because of that, is always playing pranks to get attention. He has golden brown hair, like his sister, and yet still manages to look like an outsider of the family.

Those two are good for boys, whichever one you think matches. I can't help you with the girls much, mostly because I like the names you put here. But there's something about your characters...



Just take this test with them in mind, and see if they're too cliched.
