asking seito the literary goddess... XD

more of a baby name site cuz i have a japanese dictionary... XD
but i could only think of simple names like snow = yuki... which is fine... but i already know my story will have like a gazillion charas coming in and out... and i'll run out of simple names to use... and i don't even think snow represents the main chara very well... tho i do like the name yuki... XD

as if I was a literary goddess. I would be publishing my own book if I was.

Okay. babynames.com
There you go. xD It's a pretty decent site.

If you're gonna use snow, japanese, and your character is female then try Yukinko instead of just Yuki. (Yukinko is Snow Child)

nocturnal miyu 07-20-2007 10:46 AM

babynames.com has japanese names? that's kinda cool... i'll go look it up... :)
thanx... <3

edit: actually all my charas are pretty contemporary... that's why yuki has no connection or meaning to the chara... XD

they a have a few

but the yukinko was pulled from another japanese dictionary x3

And yeah obviously, if you want a negative/darker name you aint gonna find it on the baby name website. Let's say you want to name your character with a name that means devil. You're not gonna find it.

nocturnal miyu 07-20-2007 10:51 AM

akuma... lol... XD
no, it's very contemporary... so i want easy funloving sometimes maybe darker but not really names... if you didn't give me the site, i would've just went through my mangas and pick and choose charas with similar personalities and taken their names... XD

Seito 07-20-2007 10:54 AM

Ah. xD I do that too sometimes. xD and sometimes I don't mean to. Like Ita is the personality modified version of Itachi from Naruto.

Riku(gou) shares the same name as Riku from KH (by accident)

Kait was originally Kaitou which is phantom thief which is a spin off Kaito from Magic Kaito/ Detective Conan.

yeah xD I do stuff like that too.

nocturnal miyu 07-20-2007 11:02 AM

yeah... so if i can't find good names that i like, i'll probably just go from mangas... i probably have to do that anyways.... the babynames site has TOO MANY names... and until i have a kid, i'm not going to search that hard for a name... XD

Seito 07-20-2007 11:05 AM



haha. xD But sometimes manga are not fun either. Too common the names sometimes. (Do you know how many Sora there are in the anime world? or Sakura? )

Chu you know there is an advance search where you can just search by the meaning of the name? Tis how I got Azura and Lotus, just looked up Blue and Flower undering the meaning.

nocturnal miyu 07-20-2007 11:08 AM

yeah... but mine are more for personality... and i'm not sure what elements or meaning goes with certain personalities... so it'll probably be easier to just look up a manga... like if someone gave me the name kyouya, i think of ouran high school host club and a very calculating person...

lotus = ren <3
i know from NANA... and Koi Suiren... XD

Seito 07-20-2007 11:09 AM

well what kind of personality does your character that you're trying to name. we'll give it a quick shot. x3

nocturnal miyu 07-20-2007 11:24 AM

intelligent but somewhat clumsy... has crushes on guys easily but is very faithful if she's with someone... kinda like the girl in "random walk"... (if you ever read that manga before...)
cries easily but is actually relatively strong... makes faces a lot...
she's like the typical manga chara...
brb... need to go brush teeth cuz it's almost 4:30 am... XD

Seito 07-20-2007 11:35 AM

Okies
how about then, Minna (or Mina), Valene, Will, Aiko, Amoura (or Amor), Calantha, Suki, or Ruchira

^^ Those are just a few ones I thought were nice and deal with your character. ^^

nocturnal miyu 07-20-2007 11:42 AM

well, she's not really loved... i guess she is by her family, but she herself goes in and out of love a lot... XD
let's just say the guys will be coming... and going... XD

Seito 07-20-2007 11:48 AM

How about Freya then?

nocturnal miyu 07-20-2007 11:50 AM

hm... i like the name... but not for the main chara... (i don't love the name enough... lol... XD )
maybe i'll give it to the best friend...
omg... there's so many charas in this... especially since she falls in and out of love... lol... i need at least 5 male names... lol... XD

Seito 07-20-2007 11:54 AM

Freya is a female name. xD The goddess of love. Hence the whole fall in love, fall out of love. There are different spellings to it... but I don't remember.

x.X anyways I'm getting tired. x3 Going bed now. See you in a few hours Miyu.

nocturnal miyu 07-20-2007 11:55 AM

goodnight seito... <3
thanx for all the help...

oh i know freya's a girl's name... the best friend is a girl too... who also falls in and out of love... XD

Seito 07-20-2007 08:17 PM

haha
okay then. x3

Seito 07-21-2007 08:48 AM

we're not use to the new quest title name yet. http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h2...Seito_Oops.gif

But yeah.
We're gonna buy another set of emotes
then after that we're gonna save up to 500g
open up a buying thread in the exchange
and then every day we'll send 100g to our mule, Seika before we buy anything
after that we'll attempt to buy the next item (especially if I know I won't find it in the exchange) or to save up to a certain amount

After buying the item or reaching that amount for the day, all other profits will go to Seika in attempt to build up a nice little stash

in case I run into trouble or need the gold in a pinch *nods*

that is the current plan! http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h2...eito_Happy.gif

nocturnal miyu 07-21-2007 08:50 AM

good luck with your plan... <3

Seito 07-21-2007 08:53 AM

chu!
http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h2.../Seito_Joy.gif

thank you. x3

so how goes the naming? made any process?

nocturnal miyu 07-21-2007 08:59 AM

nope none at all... i ended up working on commissions... ^^;;
art >> writing most of the time... tho i do have a story in mind... but yeah... for me it's still art >> writing... i wanted to create a manga out of it... but i don't have the skills for that either... ^^;;
(nor enough paper... >.< )

Seito 07-21-2007 09:01 AM

ooo I see I see.
*nods*
But if you want to make a manga, then you first need a story?
And art doesn't have to be great
and to save paper do it on the computer.

nocturnal miyu 07-21-2007 09:05 AM

yeah... but my art skills will probably kill it plus i don't know how to draw backgrounds... so it won't work very well if you see characters and they're not really anywhere... XD

Seito 07-21-2007 09:08 AM

then practice backgrounds. x3
You know like sit outside and draw what you see.
Go to the mall and draw what you see
Wait until night time and draw what you see. x3

You'll get use to the backgrounds eventually. And they don't have to be super complex. I mean like if take american comics for example, stuff like garfield doesn't have backgrounds sometimes. Sometimes it's just tone. x3
