Sporadic 2799 Share Posted November 13, 2011 (( More Elven Language Resources: )) Elvish forum thread: Contains all seed words, affixes and grammar rules you'll need to grow into a master of the Elven Tongue Elvish Wiki Page: Contains many words, affixes, common combinations and sentences you can learn. Useful if you're looking for a specific word. Elf up your name: Go here one of the many ready-to-use Elvish names for your character! Hey there new RPers. Good to see you're reading the guide section. Undoubtedly, as you were creating a character for yourself you had to think of a name. Chances are your minecraft name doesn't suffice (L33tbro666 just doesn't feel very fantasy, now does it?) and while you COULD always go with something tried and true like Legolas, it might not feel right for you to introduce yourself like that. Luckily, for Elven players there is hope! Why not pick a name with ACTUAL ROOTS in the eldest language of Aegis? Make your character the proud owner of a name with MEANING, and have it flavor your character in a way nothing else could. I am one of the keepers of the Elven language, and I'm here to help out! I've distilled some words from the LotC-Elven dictionary that can be readily used as a character name. There's enough to pick from for every type and alignment of character, and I'll be updating the list regularly to make sure we won't have too many identically-named elves running around. Without further ado, the list: ANIMALS: Athri: Serpent Vuln: Fox Chirr: Wolf Alor: Salmon Turr: Sheep Turrii: Lamb Barbu: Hedgehog (also: black, dark) NOUNS: Ullral: Monster (lit: decayed) Aelor: Beast Ker: Night Lirr: Friend Naeri: Priest, Devout one Elsil: The sword Taliamonn: Treeborn Elsiimah: The tower Malii: Little elf Yuln: Gem Dovahkin: Dragonborn (no not really; Dragonborn would be "Athri'narncael'onn"; good luck pronouncing that!) Ellir: The Friend Eloem: The one Vallei: Water Velulaei: Moon Maln: Father CONCEPTS: Sirame: Honour Hileia: Peace Leyun: Beauty Maehr: Wisdom Igne: Fire Acaele: Heaven, Sky Elacal: (the) Golden, (the) Cursed Ceru: Strength Iheiu: Wind Khel: Darkness Sioln: Loneliness Suliin: vision Mayilu: Loved Llumn: sorrow PROFESSIONS: Amir: Forester Evarir: Protector Maehrir: Sage Averir: Adventurer Aylir: Well-doer, benefactor. Vulnir: Trickster Avern: Wanderer Aheral: Blessed Walehir: Healer Laurir: Noble Tossair: Marauder, Raider Parir: Harbinger, messenger Illera: Gift Elibar: The Owl Lirrame: Friend of the forest Salumir: Empath Civir: Fisherman COMPOSITIONS: Names composed out of two or more Elven words: Ellir'siol: The Lonely Friend Chirr'ker: Dark Wolf Elsan'ayla: The Good News If you end up using any of these names, please let me know here! I always love to hear I've helped people out, and it also lets me know if too many people are using the same name. Also, if you want a specific elven name that's not on the list, do not hesitate to leave a reply here. I have the time to find you something suited precisely to your needs. And yeah, these names tend to be very unisex. Elves are like that... 22 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antharin 90 Share Posted November 13, 2011 They will go with the names: Robert_White, Bill_Daggerheart, Master_Hunter_Archmage_Nikolas. Or just some awesome word: Dusk, Desire, Lust. Duh. Golden rule: 50% of LotC players are dark hooded assassins with glowing eyes and their past was very sad. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden rule: 50% of LotC players are dark hooded assassins with glowing eyes and their past was very sad. Now they can do that too, but in elvish! Very nice guide! I would have liked to have used it when I was making my character! Thanks :) Keep it in mind if your character happens to die a tragic and heroic death ;) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sporadic 2799 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 I am going to make my last name sing this xD Hmmmm How would I connect 2 of these words? Uhm, this doesn't work for all words, but usually you put an apostrophe (') between them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eledyr 85 Share Posted November 17, 2011 So something like Chirr'Amir? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sporadic 2799 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 So something like Chirr'Amir? Forester wolf? I suppose, but I don't see how that means anything. Chirr'Ame would be 'forest wolf'. This would have more meaning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
