The Children of Seth names are influenced by the societies they interact with. A parent may choose to name their offspring with a human or elven name if they have spent a considerable amount of time with these societies. As such, they have a wide variety of names. Examples include: Borra, Chavazin, Guzzleguts, Vargrelly, Teaneethyn, Thricestrike or Tim.
A name is not given to a Manyhorn until its โright of adoptionโ has been completed. Names are then issued by a guild elder and each elder may follow a different naming convention. Some examples of different guild names are as follows:
The Pluvenn favour high-pitched squawky names spoken in their ancient Archosauric tongue, such as Skree, Kek, Kareese, or Pip. They also sometimes have names spoken in Common, such as William, Hermione, Richard, or Audrey. Typically, the naming convention of an individual village will be similar among its populace, either all having Archosauric names or all having Common names.
The Ankylier invariably give their offspring names that convey strength or power by combining two words, and are usually in their native tongue Archosauric. Names are nether gender- or sex-specific. Common names include: Boulderfist, Ruggedhide, Ironguts, and Booming-Chest. If their names are in Archosauric, to a non-speaker they would sound like: Karko-ragh, Gurrgu, Oo-tarm-ma, and Vro-fath.
Within Mount Karaoโkr, a hatching Jeholrak is typically given a simple name. However, once coming of age, Jeholrak begin to bestow upon themselves ever more extravagant names with reference to (supposedly) heroic deeds they have achieved. As such, the older or more influential a Jeholrak is, the longer and more ludicrous their name becomes. Below are some examples: Hatchling names Rassolax;โฆ
