Re: What's in a name?

Ehh, not sure if this thread topic should of really been on the server specific area. Unlike Allakhazam were people from that server just posted random stuff on the board to the server they belonged on, we have a different look at it here. The server section is more to server specific stuff only that is occuring in-game (i.e. Static party setup, looking for world pass, creating LS looking for members, etc...).

For the other stuff we have separate threads for, the intent to culture the community here as a whole and not segment eachother to servers. Anyway with that said my names come from basically 4 sources.

Italian
German
Japanese
Latin

Macht: The power to create, the will to create, one who creates his destiny

At least that's what my German Grandmother said it means. Lol, I actually let her pick that name she said it best suited me... Eh, whatever. Not my in-game name one of my in-game ones is Italian forgetting what it ment I think it ment "wanderer".

[Leie]

Re: What's in a name?

Leie was not my first choice, but is the sister to my first choice. Myra is now a mule and was my first choice for a name. Both Myra and Leie are characters in a book by David Brin; Glory Season. Heh, and for those who know me, GlorySeason is the name of my private ls that is rarely used. Rainlilie is my other mule, because I consider it the prettiest flower that was in the game when I made her.

Re: What's in a name?

I picked my name, Suichi, because;

1. It's the name of the human form of Kurama in YuYu Hakusho
2. It fit my Taru so well, just the look of it.


More than ironically enough, my best friend in-game is a character named Kurama.
