Help me with a name?

Unread post by TrickyNick »

I finally got the one pet I liked the looks of, at my low level anyways, but would like help with a name?

Any suggestions?

Hmmm. Well, your name is Trickster, and your pet has red fur, so it's like fire...
Kaen? The Wildfire Rune in Runemarks.
Or just Wildfire?
Or, the old classic, Loki.
Edit - in Norse mythology, Loki is connected to the rune "Berkanan", which can also be spelled "Beorc" and (my favorite) "Bjarken". (The first is Proto-germanic, the second Old English, the third Old Norse) They all mean the same thing, "Birch" as in the tree.

I'll probably go with Kaen or Wildfire, I like both names.

But would like to hear a few more suggestions

How about Jinx, Shenanigans, Spell, Hex, Hijinks, Caper, or Charm? All words that have to do with trickery or pranks, so they go well with your toon's name. :)

Which of those would be good for a female cat?

Was doign research on Norse Mythology due to Loki also being known as Trickster (didn't reall realize that until LupisDarkmoon told me (sorry, meant to put that in earlier, got distracted as I am at work). I found Freya, a goddess who had 2 cats (Bygul and Trjegul) that pulled her chariott. Not sure how many would get the reference.

Now on my short list are:
Loki (to match Trickster)
Freya
Jinx

EDIT: Gave credit to LupisDarkmoon for pointing out that Loki also went by Trickster

Most of those names are more unisex, but I think Jinx and Charm are the most feminine and Caper sounds a bit more masculine. As for Freya... hm. I don't think she's as well known as, say, Greek goddesses, but she's definitely one of the more well known Norse deities.

Is Loki a female name?

If so, that's who I will pick

----- EDIT:
FREYJA: Old Norse name derived from the ancient element freyja (Old High German frouwa), meaning "lady, mistress." In mythology, this is the name of the goddess of beauty and love.

I'm gonna pick Freyja, mostly cause I think it's a beautiful cat!
