Kelana (Wander, Wanderer, Vagabond)

Roda, Oh finally you settled on something! :D

I think Kelana itself is sufficient to be a Miqo'te name without any modificiations. Give a me some moments though, I'll PM you for some other applications of it.

 

Katattax, You're welcome, Kat!

Good luck in building your very own Keepers! :thumbsup:

Ah, some good additions this time!

Spending the evening consulting with my uncle about many old words appropriate for names, I choose several of what I think is the best of the bunch.

Some will sounds like words of Hindi origin. Those must have been originated in ancient times where powerful kingdoms of Hinduism are the governing body of Indonesia.

 

♦ Kalinda (Sea)

♦ Malika (Jasmine)

♦ Mayuri (Peacock)

♦ Megana (Dark Cloud, Rain Cloud)

♦ Nisha (Night) *feminine word

♦ Parwani / Parvani (Moonlight) *feminine word

♦ Reshma (Silk)

♦ Sagara (Ocean)

♦ Sahila (a Guide *the person, not instruction)

♦ Sangita (Musician)

♦ Savita (Sun *feminine word)

♦ Usha (Dawn, moment of Sunrise)

 

All added to the list! I hope some will strike your fancy. :thumbsup:

 

I only refer to your forum avatar, Faulkner.  But then again, who am I to talk :D ?

 

But, but... that doll you displayed, I- I like those eyes! :bouncy:

maybe I'm a creepy one after all... *sigh
