Night Elven Name for Deth'tilac (and a newborn cub)

Unread post by Golden »

I recently (re)tamed Deth'tilac on my main - one one hand because he was there and I was bored, and on the other hand because his colors match Nani's latest transmo gear perfectly.

I just can't seem to think of a name for him... Since Nani's recently taken on the colors of Darnassus, I would very much like this new pet to mirror that. Is there a spider in Night Elven lore/history/whathaveyou that I haven't heard of? (Ok there's Lady Satrah, but I'm not sure if I could give that name to anything other than a look-alike of the real deal.) Are there words in their language that could describe Deth'tilac?

All suggestions are appreciated, even though on Nani I do prefer simple names that are both easy and fast to pronounce (Usva, Rune, Draco, Loki, Lyall), though it wouldn't be the first longer name in her stables (Moonwell).

---

While not a Hunter pet, I will still post this, too. See, Nani has this little family going on...

Father Savage (Shadowclaw/Striped Nightsaber) and mother Usva (Ghost Saber)

The cub of Nani's two favourite cats is in dire need of a name, but nothing just seems to fit. :( Again, all suggestions are appreciated!

Xaxas... wasn't that what the Night Elves once called Deathwing?

Kinda like going "Hi, this is my new puppy, Hitler!"

Yes, actually. Think of it more like people who name their dog Demon or something similar.

Yeah, that's about how I saw it when I named my Ravenger Xaxas :)
