Help with Roegadyn names - Lady Whiteraven - 10-01-2013

I VERY recently came across this link:
http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/61152-Roegadyn-Naming-Conventions

I thought it could help anyone looking to make a Roegadyn and wanted a more traditional name. I only wish I had seen this before I made Luna or I would have used it. Blush Almost makes me want to start her all over with a more appropriate name.

I got my names mostly from a generator. It's OK if you don't need to think into it much, I mean, who really picks their own name at birth?

RE: Help with Roegadyn names - Wandering Adventurer - 10-03-2013

I'll post this here so not to add another thread with such a similar subject matter. I am needing halp translating my characters name from modern Eorzean to the old language. I am Wandering Adventurer, wanting to translate that to Roegadyn, of which I've been able to identify Eyri for Wandering through the Roegadyn Dictionary. Would anyone be able to halp me translate Adventurer please?

I think I'm actually going to change my hellsguards name after this. Came up with something much more creative.


RE: Help with Roegadyn names - Corelyn - 10-04-2013

Haha, nice. The way I described it to a friend was:

For Hellsguard, use Adjective Noun and make it sound sort of tribal or somesuch.

For Sea Wolves, make a nearly unpronounceable name with a shitload of the letter Y.

This explains it much more intelligently. Kudos. X-D
