Shamarah never reminded me of a merian, it's just the association with shamrocks that stuck. Which seems like an apt symbol for a PvPer, but whatever.
Names that seem fitting:
Celest - Alodia, Faragan, Yevah
Magnagora - Nariah, Enoch
Serenwilde - Tsuki, Elryn, Jasper, Laysus, Xiran
Glomdoring - Xenthos, Silferras, Pentu
Hallifax - Tulemrah, Sylandra
Gaudiguch - Shiblichi

It's funny that you mention Jasper in Serenwilde, because in my head he's still the guy who org-hopped from Glom back to Seren (this was about four years ago, mind). It's probably because he wrote a lot of the original, pre-Wyrd Shadowdancer lore and rituals.

Surely, Llesvelt is not -that- androgynous?
Shiri2010-12-29 10:11:55
Mostly sounds unpleasantly Welsh here. You probably just wanted it as an L though.
Llesvelt2010-12-29 13:25:59
Yeah, some months after I started learning Spanish and suddenly I got worried some people would have mispronounced it as "Jesvelt"
It's just Les-Velt, though.

I thought of Asmodea the snake when I first saw the name Asmodea. Forget what story it's from though.
Oh my god Asmodeus the serpent from Redwall. It has been so long since I read that.

I use names from authors/characters in real-life literature because I'm a lazy plagiarist.

The masculinity/femininity of a name is about as likely to be defined the same by everyone as it is to be pronounced the same by everybody. No use getting worked up over it.

When I joined, someone sent me a message suggesting I change my name because it sounded too masculine.

It sounds masculine to me because of Apollo.
But maybe you were going for that association.

Actually, it's just my name! >.> I'm really bad at thinking of names. But yes, heheh, that is its origin! When I was struck with trying to figure out names for my million beasts, I decided I might as well roll with it, and so they are all epithets of Apollo, with the exception of Fata Morgana. I have Averruncus (well, I gave her away, but still), Belenus, Loxias, and Coelispex!

That movie gave me such paranoia issues as a kid. The TV would say PHOEBUS and I would be like WHAT, WHAT.

That image will be forever stuck in my head whenever I see Phoebus now.
And who are you Nejii? ... Morbo? Ridley?
Edit: Hahaha I love Ileein's reaction, can totally picture it IG.

Also, for some reason I didn't think of Malice first when I encountered Malicia's name.
