    Names and their Meanings

    Roheryn Sedai, I would SO have that playing as you ride down the aisle! I used completely different music for my wedding, not the typical stuff at all. And I chose passages from the Faerie Queen and Shakespeare's sonnets too, so I'm sure there were plenty of people there who's worst fears that...

    Raena, Tigana was one of the first fantasy books I ever read! I JUST mentioned it to someone the other day. When I saw your name the other day I wondered if that was the connection or just a coincidence. How cool!

    Names and their Meanings

    Your name is quite lovely. My own last name (and Elyss of course) I chose from the Persian language as well. Kohinoor means "mountain of light". I also like Persian food :) And if one wanted to know where to find a WOT role-playing game (although one really should be working *cough,cough) where...

    That's very cool, Roheryn Sedai. I suppose you can't go wrong there! Is it pronounced the way it looks? When I say it it sounds similar to that of the Rohirrim, the horse people. In the movies that is one of my favorite pieces of music. Thank you for sharing!

    Names and their Meanings

    Imzadi Sedai, First - I LOVE Star Trek! Secondly, the Sea Folk are probably my favorite culture in WOT. It probably helps that I am a Pisces and grew up wanting to be a pirate/explorer (first thing I can remember actually). When I picked my own name I chose Asherah from Near Eastern Mythology...

    Names and their Meanings

    Everyone has such interesting reasons or circumstances for their names, even if by chance something occurred to shift a letter or two that brought you to where you are now. And I notice many of you mention RPGs which I have heard of a lot, but have never played - any recommendations? Although...

    Names and their Meanings

    Kira, you have a great many names it seems. Do they fit your various moods when you are in the RPGs or do you just like assuming the different roles? If you don't mind me asking of course... And by the way, Oksana is a lovely name, very mysterious.

    Names and their Meanings

    Jaim Gaidin, That's a cool trick with the adding an "a" - and you can never really go wrong with Gaelic when you are a warrior. It just fits the "I'm a badass" nature, I think. Thank you for sharing.

    Names and their Meanings

    So, I am a self-professed logophile - no, it's not catching and I'm not (super) scary, I just love words. I would really like to hear how you chose your name and if it has a meaning? I believe this is where this thread would go, but if not please advise. Thanks in advance, I am so excited to...
