Ok so this might sound a bit picky but I am trying to decide between a few very similar sounding names and just can't for the life of me make up my damn mind. So after three four days of running two names with two possible pronunciations each as plausible candidates I'm still stuck. Making no leeway whatsoever I figured I might need some help. Here's a little bit of RP background.

_____ Start of RP Madness_____

Recently my spunky little dwarf hunter got the idea in her head that a wee cat of her own might be nice, so off she went to find a lovely puss of her own. While visiting Booty Bay after picking up her wonderful armored boar, Arden, she came across some information about some beautiful red pets in Eversong Woods and Ghostlands. Once she felt up for another journey, Reiza set off to get her bright red cat and red and black bat. One long jaunt later Reiza was up one bat and one cat, a young Springpaw Cub named Alisun. After spending some time with the little girl it became clear, there was no connection with the tiny fuzz ball. So one long trek back to Eversong later and Reiza left Alisun to go back to her life and her mother.

As she was heading back out of Blood Elf territory she noticed something dipping over the hill in front of her. Curious, the little dwarf decided to check what it was, for safeties sake of course..... A splash of red and gold leapt for her.

It was true love, a fiery little male stalker had tried to pick a fight. This was the type of cat she wanted, one that was not afraid to try biting off more than he could chew. So one tame forward and Reiza was once again up one cat. As she watched her new companion a bright yellow and red dragonhawk fluttered back and forth around them, not leaving the two alone for a minute. The plucky dragonhawk even attempted to follow the little hunter as she tried to leave, seemingly fascinated with her silver braid clasps. There was no helping it, Reiza left a note and a promise to return for the plucky little thing once Arden and the still unnamed cat were safe at the stable.

_____ End of RP Madness ______

So now three trips to Eversong later Reiza has her three wonderful new beasties. All that she needs now is a name for her lynx. Since my server is rather dead and the last two times I tried to get a Certificate of Ownership I ended up down about fifty gold and some Auction House priced mats, this is a name that needs to the "the one."

This guy is a bit of a fireball, he likes to get into scuffles and, while he loves attention, he would never let anyone know it. He acts a bit aloof, and tends to seem perturbed whenever Reiza gets to excitable but an ear scratch later and he's purring like a lap cat. He's ears seam very sensitive and he tends to "talk" with them quit a bit.

Let the voting begin!

Faron! (Fair-on version)
Err, actually I voted for Fair-ick, because it matches him more in my mind. That's probably slightly altered by the fact that I have a sarcastic, grumpy Skoll named Faron.

Faric (fair-ick). I dunno, it just seems like the best name for a lynx. xD

Thanks for the votes. So that makes two for Faric ("Fair-ick") and one for Faron (Fair-on)! ^_^

'At's not how et works, Pumpkin.

To me, 'Fay-rick' sounds most like a name than a female dwarf would give to one of her pets. So, voted for that.

I picked Faric ("fair-rick"), because it just feels more natural to me. If that makes any sense at all.

Sorry for not getting back to this topic for a few days. Our internet was awful, WoW wouldn't even let me log on do to latency issues.

Anyway the results are in and....

*drum role*

Faric (Fay-rick) it is!


Once again, thanks to those who voted from Reiza, myself, and of course Faric.


Now if only I could get my butt in gear and get back to writing their story I'll be set...
