In need of help with a night elven name.

Unread post by Nefretiti »

I didnt think this fit under the name your pet category but if you think so feel free to move it :)

I have a nelf mage who I recently moved to a different realm and I'm not quite happy with the name he has so I could use help with coming up with a new fresh name.
New start on a fresh server and all that.

any suggestions are welcomed and although serious names are prefered I will welcome any suggestions :)

thanks all

edit : forgot to say I'm looking for male elven names .. durr .. shows I shouldn't post after 10 pm :roll:

I personally like to use this little site that I found for creating some of my elven names:
http://www.angelfire.com/rpg2/vortexshadow/names.html
I don't use the roll system, personally. I just pick a syllable from each of the two tables, usually trying to fit a theme I have in mind, and then put them together to create a name.

For example, my night elf mage's name is Tiahar which would loosely translate into wise mage. :)
My druid's name, Rulian, was also created from this website and means Mistress of the Dream.

I use this site for translations, so if you want to name him after something like say, 'fire' or 'magic' or whatever, it can translate into the Dungeons and Dragons Elvish. Since its a created language for the roleplaying game, it is limited, not every word has an elvish counterpart. And also, make sure you dont use capital letters if your typing a word in since the translator cant pick up on that

And im so swiping that site Tyger :lol: love it

I've done this by looking at how night elves ingame are named(wowpedia can help you see it) and made up a name.

I decided to keep him the way he is , I started writing a story about him and another character that's just too much fun to pass up :)
