Verdurian names

[Bristel]

So I saw that my real first name is an Elenicoi name, which is Timoďeo.

So if I understand the nom, pirei and ženata correctly:

Timoďeo Darinei Sokol would be a valid Verdurian name?

[Astraios]

Iosif Marcei Clošom.

I don't like it. =\

[Bristel]

Iosif Marcei Clošom.

I don't like it. =\

Joseph, Son of Mark, Bell?

Sound p Verdurian though.

Mine is Son of Darin, Hawk (lit. falcon)

[Astraios]

Bellman. I guessed at the family name - looked up "bell" in the Verdurian dictionary, and noticed that the other "occupations" had lots of -om, so I added that.

[Dewrad]

Ďanël Ihanei Ihaney. I quite like it.

[justin]

Iustino Krailefei Canonico

Hm...

Edit: Didn't know about the Germanic name list.

[Jipí]

How'd you patronymize Ingolf? If – according to the English-Verdurian dictionary – Christian is Eleďe as a noun, can that be used as a name as well? My last name would be Bulondom, anyhow.

[Matt]

I think my Verdurian name would be Mateo Řegorei Maranhey. I just picked the ?enata that sounded most similar to my last name, since I didn't see one for 'husband', which is the source of my last name.

[tezcatlip0ca]

Medropairho Moseei Martiney. No idea about that pagan name.

By the way, can someone fond a Cadhinorian equivalent of Alfonso? Peo-what?

[masako]

I think my name would be Pondašo Pondašei Ven..maybe Veney.

[zompist]

I worked out a bunch of Germanic names, but of course they're on Almeopedia. Till it's back up, the best thing to do for them is look at the closest Verdurian name elements.

As for the name 'Christian', Eleďe could be used in a pinch, but it's not actually used that way in Eretald. Perhaps Iceleď ('love Eleď') or Řisto (= 'Christopher')?

[Cedh]

Ihano Ďumilei Banom. (Translated my father's name in order to avoid a second obviously Terran element.)

[Yiuel Raumbesrairc]

My preferred almean name would be Šečudo ma-Eris.

[rickardspaghetti]

I came up with Grösefar Akežomei Čor. How does that sound?

[eodrakken]

Iosif Iosifei Etaldey

My family name actually refers to uncultivated land, but I couldn't find a way to express that, so I went with "plain", which is at least not necessarily cultivated. I'm sure we've done this before but I can't remember what I came up with then.

[Thomas Winwood]

My surname is originally a place name, but it's so heavily disguised by sound change and myriad variant spellings that I decided to translate it "naively" and smush the pieces together.

Tomao Pavelei Irzovendi. (Including my middle name as an extra nom, Tomao Vulkežë Pavelei Irzovendi.)

[Shm Jay]

I suppose upon going back to the ancient Latin form of my name, Jay << Gaius (the jay bird = chatterer), I could be Šm.Thantantos

tatatir to chatter < *thantantir [verb], *thantanta [noun]?

[bulbaquil]

tatatir to chatter < *thantantir [verb], *thantanta [noun]?

Holy crap, I didn't even realize until now that the "Shm" in "Shm Jay" was the abbreviation for šriftom.

[Shm Jay]

What did you think it was, a hum?

[Arzena]

Iacovo Mëranac Bambuley*

*Bambuley is derived from BANOS 'road' and buyeley 'town'
I translated my middle name, Robert, meaning 'bright fire', as Mëranac, the god of fire.

Off-topic, If I lived in the day of Cuzei, I would name myself, Esāsias Ogonasame Banago.

I think I translated Ya'qov correctly into Cuezi.

EDIT: Iacovo Claibrac Bambuley

[SilentMember]

From what I could gather my name is Stefanei Tomaei Etaldey.

My name means son of Stephen, so I went with what I thought was that, and I couldn't find park so I went with plain. How'd I do?

EDIT: So then Stefano Tomaei Etaldey.

[Jar Jar Binks]

[linguoboy]

I translated my middle name, Robert, meaning 'bright fire', as Mëranac, the god of fire.

That's a pretty free translation. "Robert" derives from a compound of hrod "fame" and ber(a)ht "bright". What about reversing the elements and getting "Claibrac"?

[zompist]

In fact that's precisely the equivalent I came up with here:

BTW, Silent, you really can't use a genitive as a first name in Verdurian; Stefano would be the closest approximation. (Could be Stefaney if it's originally a family name. But using surnames as given names is not a Verdurian custom.)

[Pthagnar]

i also independently arrived at Claibrac, it would seem
