Greetings and Salutations to esteemed heralds and all heraldesque folk alike.
Gregor Elfingstone here.
I'd like to ask for help with a somewhat SCA related matter.
My lady's best friend, Amy, is in the first stages of assimilation into our
fair society, currently in the Outlands. During a recent phone conversation,
my lady was in the traditional act of accusing her of whining about her life,
yet again, and Amy jokingly suggested trying to register "Whiny Butt" as her
SCA name. My lady rolled her eyes at the odd idea, when I, in jest, suggested
that maybe I could ask around and see if there was a period version or period
approximation to the phrase "whiny butt". Amy, seeking to call my bluff, said
that she'd try to register it if I managed to come up with one.
So, my heraldic brothers and sisters, I'm asking for your help. If this is an
inappropriate discussion topic for this esteemed forum, then you have my most
fervent apologies. However, I was thinking that it would be an entertaining
and diverting challenge for the more learned amongst us.
Is there a period phrase or name that means or approximates the phrase "whiny
butt"? I can't wait to see what everyone managed to find. My own meager
library has not managed to help me so far. Any ideas?
Yours in service,
Gregor Elfingstone.
