Female Draenei Name Help

Unread post by Silivren »

So basically just as the title says I am at a loss for names for a new character I'm making. She's a female Draenei priest. I tried the randomize button but some of those names don't even...sound remotely Draenei even though they're supposed to.

If you have any ideas please let me know. I like names that mean things or just roll off the tongue. I'm not objective to names like Tsume or names that have odd letter combinations like the Ts sound. I can do Draenei double vowels if need be but I'd like to try to find a name without them first. That's not to say you can't suggest them. Just please help anyway you can. Thanks all!

behindthename(dot)com is great for picking out or inspiring character names.

Tsutalu? Tsereza? Buiefel? Draenic names are frustrating because their language inspirations are all over the place. >:1

Well draenic names usually have a specific pattern. Usually a double vowel so kinda like the draenei names I use (Lisaara, Ashaalina, Asuula, etc.)

@ Nevish, Tsutalu gave me a good idea so I may fiddle with a name like that when I'm home.

@ Junrei - Some do, but I've seen Draenei females that break that naming pattern. I'm trying to avoid the double vowel because it drives me almost insane. It's an odd OCD thing I have going on but I cant stand it myself. Kind of like if you I see a sentence which repeats that twice in a row even though I know its correct I just cannot stand it. :lol:

Only one of my Draenei have the double vowel thing going on in her name - and in my experience, I tend to see double vowels more in male Draenei than female. That said, most of my female draenei have names ending in i or a.

Well all the names I tried were taken, I'm trying to have one unlocked on my server as we speak so hopefully that works.
