[Northkeep] what's in a name

[Robert Stewart]

Okay, that whole name picking thingy you went through is just scary.  That gets saved in the Narthkeep folder, too.  :)
The "O" is probably pronounced in the fasion of "not", but it was not specified which style of O was used, so it could be like in "nose" or "noose" (the thingy we hang people with) and I could get out my Old Norse language dictionary if we really want to get into this.  Like I said, Chris/Snotra/Sirhc/???, if you pick Norse or scandinavian, I can teach you the language, and I also have alot of clothing patterns.  Including the apron to which you have referred.
Skerri
P.S.-  I got to pick from Snorri and Skerri for taking too long to settle on a name, and my Squire brothers were named Skeggi and Skepti

Actually, I was going to say "is that how Skerri got his name?" but decided not to single anyone out, so I changed it to "some people". Isn't Norse what Elizabetta and her terminally peppy sidekick are? (Sorry, I've gone blank on her name, but she's oh so sweet, ya just wanna squeeze her). The dress is pretty much a sheet wrapped around with straps over the sholders and large round pins to hold them together, right? That sounds much easier to sew than a Houpland... and alot less fabric, too...

Now, I know the German language sounds like someone hacking up a hairball, but Snotra is a bit much, don't you think? Besides, I'm no crooner... get it? S-notra?

Your excellency, were you just letting the cats walk on the keyboard for that list of names? Is that how the Norse came up with their names? Well, obviously not using a keyboard, but perhaps dice with letters in a cup, shake and dump, then come up with a name from the letters you get... or perhaps it was more like scrabble... letters on tiles placed upside down and you roll a die to see how many letters you are allowed to turn over... Or perhaps the parents weren't allowed to pick a name until they were sufficiently drunk and whatever came out of their mouth was the child's name... am I close on any of these methods? If the latter is the case, then perhaps we should elect Gunarstead to be the official naming committee...

Well, that's how I got Skerri.
Skerri
P.S.--- Go with Snotra. I will teach you all kinds of really cool old Norse language to go with it if you do....

OH NO! I was never told of this rule... is that how some people got such silly names?

I thought after 6 months or so, it was up to the Populace to pick a name we
thought fit. I'm thinking something along the lines of Esmeralda. Chris seems
kind of gypsy like. What do you think?

"what's in a name?" too damn many Z's, that's what... and since the e-mail
name didn't come up with mundane name (Miriam Cook) I just got a little
confused... sincerest apologies to all... one of the blonde hairs decided to
take over momentarily. I think I have it straight now, Zubeydah is the
watery person, got it, so sorry...

I'm pretty sure the person you need is Zahava, however I'm quite pleased and
honored to be confused with her. She's the Co-Autocrat Type Person, I'm the
Waterbearer Person :-)
