Decided on a Persona Name

Post by mg2Arnor »

I'm looking to put some more time and effort into my rangering here this year, and so I was playing with persona names the other night. For a Dunedain Ranger of the North, one of Aragorn's men who could be called upon to be in the Grey Company, I have decided upon Calenthir Dunadan. I just threw Dunadan there on the end because that is how Halbarad presented himself. Not sure if all Dunedain used that, and if they did - was it a surname or a descriptor. (or a descriptive surname). Calenthir - Calen: meaning green, fresh, vigorous, bright and Thir: meaning face, countenance, look, expression. In other words - baby-faced. I thought a Dunedain mother might chose the name Calenthir as a way to cope with all the steely eyed, grim men of countenance around her. A bit of fun and hope in a dark world.

Also, just an aside: I think it would be fantastic to be wandering the wilds as a grim, BEARDED ranger who's name essentially means baby-faced.

I dig it! I enjoy names that are more on the fun side versus BloodEagle Ravenous Warlord Odinsson or whatever haha.

Yep, same. Now I just need to figure out how to add that bit at the bottom of my posts that stays the same. I like how yours says your persona.

Figured out the Signature end thingy, it seems. Not a tech person, LOL.
