Salut Cozyns,
'wolf asks:
>i rather like this possibility ... how would "sun wolves" be
constructed ???
Sigelwulfen.
Frankly, I don't think this would work as an area name unless some
particular landmark is known by some name such as the Sun Wolves.
Incidentally, though I've misplaced the post, Baron Pendaren asked about
pronunciation. Because of the "e" following the "g," the pronunciation
of "sigel" would probably have varied depending upon dialect. In
Westminster, it would have been "see-g'l" (where the ' is a schwa and
the g is a hard g like in "golf, guys, gluttony, gulag, and galactic).
In Sussex in would have been pronounced more like "see-yell." In either
case the first syllable gets the accent.
