Female early teenager (=14)
Keepers of the Moon
From somewhere in the Black Shroud (to determine)
Pronounciation:
Evai, like Evay.
Pehsh, not like with a e, but with a french é, a kind of open e, like "ay" in "say".Â
First "h" is mute, sh is like a cat hiss.Â
The "Peh" opens the mouth for a hiss.
For those who knows french, that monosyllabic sounds like the word "pêche".
And here we are at the elaboration:Â
"pêche", the peach, and its soft sweet skin.
"pêche", fishing, because cats love fish aren't they?Â
Evai, the first name, simple as that.
Voilà , suggestions are welcomed too.
I think the biggest problem with this is that it requires heavy phonetic description so it is not horrifyingly butchered.
I'd say 5/10, because while the name does have that problem, it at least sounds lore-friendly.
Character name: Virgil Manentyv
Character is Miqo'te, though he was given his name by his godparents, a Hyur male and a Roegadyn female.
Virgil is in reference (OOC) to the poet Virgil, who wrote the Aeneid and several other great works. In character, Virgil is reference to a similar figure, also a Hyur, who lived during the Second Astral Era.
Manentyv, "Moon Thief" in the Roegadyn tongue, has a double meaning. It speaks of his father, the Seeker who stole the Keeper's heart, and the mother, the Keeper who stole lavish gifts in order to propose to the Seeker male.
