Gryselde strikes me as a colour- (grey) based name, so maybe something in keeping with the theme? "Gwyn" and the derivative "Wyn" both mean "white" in Welsh.

I've always been so tempted by bats, but anything that won't eat fish tends to get re-homed pretty sharpish where Art is concerned. (I have a mania for fishing.) For silly names, perhaps something referencing fruit, or maybe something relating to being crazy (not the obvious phrase about guano, ofc ;) ).

Greta. Both Gryselda and Greta are old, Swedish (well, nordish really, but whatever) names.

I also exist on DeviantArt.

I like vampire names for bats. Went with Nosferato with my old bat.

Dracula, Alucard, etc.
I don't really feel like this is so much the "Post-Modern" era as much as its the "Pre-Zombie-Apocalpse" era. I consider myself more of a forward thinking guy and an era that just won't die is just as feasible as a coming era, where the dead come back.

My bat's name is Alucard. But I was also considering "Vlad", "Impailer", or "The", because Dracula was a book character based off of Vlad the Impailer... You probably shouldn't use "The" though...

In keeping with the theme, "Tepes" means "the Impaler" in Romanian ... the "the" is included in the concept, I think.

Liking the "Belfry" suggestion ... it ran through my mind when I was thinking of "batty" (crazy) ideas. Can't shake off "Batbitcrazy", even though it's so achingly corny. :lol:

The bat has a name now. I named him "Tir" for the chittering noises he makes and his homeland...and oddly enough, I realized "tir" means "land" in Gaelic! :)
