...Alis?

Elly?

Are you sure you're not thinking of "Elias"?

[Gabrielle]

Alias.

[cmorgan]

Qwynneth? Winnifred? "I'm in Love with a Girl Named Fred..."

P.S., Vera is nice, but very close to a Goddess in Brust's series, Verra...

I considered Gwyn and Gwynneth on the first pass, but decided that maybe I didn't want another name beginning with G (although I did like Gwynneth). Winnifred isn't in the running, I'm afraid. It makes me think of Cadfael (although Elis doesn't, oddly enough!).

Not too worried about the Vera/Verra thing. It could just as easily be spelled Vira, since the first sylable rhymes with "see."

And as for Elis, I'm not all that worried about giving her a name that might sound masculine. I'm a woman with a deep voice, and I've been called "Bruce" before without being scarred by it.

So yeah, I still have a lot of thinking to do about names. Always the way of it.

Can we have an alternate portrait if it's Vera?

An obscure reference to be sure, but so was the whole "Gavin as Barney" thing.

Where is this character supposed to be from? It might be cool to give her a name reflecting that. Gwynneth for example is the biggest island in the Moonshaes, one with a "Celtic" background.

Vera is a good name, 'cause we all have "Faith" in Berelinde to do this project. Jokes aside, I really don't care the name she has, I don't think that a name can reflect the Mary Sue side of a character so Serena would be fine too. And if you don't find any suitable name, calle her "Nameless-one", it worked fine for PST

Seriously, Vera is very beautiful, I also like Marisa, Mara, Marizza. Is there any npc called by M? (female npc mod, of course)

I'd throw my vote at Elise or Elis if pushed.

Vera for me is always followed by the name Duckworth... http://www.corrie.ne...worth_vera.html

At this point, I'm leaning toward Elise or Gwynneth. BF had ick fits over Elis (not that he'd actually play the mod, mind you, as he absolutely hates NPCs that talk ).

[cmorgan]

Elise is very nice.

[berelinde]

And, after all is said and done, it's going to be Lynneth. I agree that she kind of looks vaguely celtic, and Lynneth is given as an Aglarondian name. Most of the other Aglarondian names look Welsh, so that's good enoguh for me.

The As-Yet-Unnamed_NPC now has a name. Lynneth.

[vilkacis]

Lynneth.

You called?

Hehe, but I guess you're fine as long as she's not a valkyrie.

[berelinde]

I don't care.

[vilkacis]

It's a cool name.

[Duroth]

Is this active as a mod I/P ? ? ?

[berelinde]

If, by "in-progress," you mean that I will get to it, yes, but I've got a couple deadlines to clear first. I'd look for the first real signs of progress in a few more months. I'm using her dialogues as examples in my tutorial thread, though, so you can at least see her joining dialogue, here.

[Duroth]

I know your still busy with a lot that your working on but any progress here? ?

Huh, it's been 6 hours and no one's yelled about "necroposting" yet. They're slipping.

[leahnkain]

Duroth I kindly ask you read the Nercroposting thread. before resurrecting old topics.
