Ogdan 158 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Would "Vull'Sulii" as a last name be a correct use of the appostraphe? I'm trying to make an elf name and to be honest I can't tell if its correct or not by the post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are two separate words that have no added meaning when joined. If anything it makes it more confusing. What are you trying to say? Vullir'suliin almost works. But the only reason for merging the two is so that it IS one word, as in the case of a name. In actually fact Sulii'vullir is probably better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought it'd be cool to have a fitting last name for my character. Edit: Would "Vulsulii" be a suitable last name for the meaning I'm trying to achieve?

Elindor 654 Share Posted January 8, 2014 The order for Elven phrases is Subject Object Verb. So the name should be "Sulii'Vull" in order to mean to deceive eye. Though the interpretation will receive mixed results, which is why I suggested being called an "Eye Deceiver" in my previous reply. I believe Vullir'sulii to be the best wording.

rex48 0 Share Posted January 29, 2014 My elf's name is Evarir'Ceru. But due to RP I wish to change it from Protector Mighty to Protector for or to the Mighty. Any help? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samler 1047 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Evarir'ito Ceru is my guess. Might be 3 words instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elindor 654 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Well, traditionally an Elven child would have been called as either born of the father or born of the mother. The baby would be carrying more than just the parent's gender but also their ancestral line. More recently those lines have blurred together as people consider a baby to be the product of both the mother and father (and infertility rates seem to have dropped) so I would imagine one of these younger more "edgy" elves would have the words you are looking for.

Ryn Chirr 224 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Thank you kindly. so it would be something along the lines of ((for grahmer's sake)) father born/ mother born? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
