I liked the name Hrafna, but recently I realized there's another character in Skyrim called Hrefna.

Now Hrafna is a feminized form of the Norse word for ''raven'' (Hrafn). I have no idea what Hrefna means but still, the names are too similar for me, which is bothering. When I make Nord names I always look for Norse words that mean something.

I'll have to get used to a different name. But I came up with a few.

This character is very gloomy and sorrowful, though very elegant and mysterious aswell. Therefore, majority, if not all the names have the same atmosphere.

Leysa: Which means ''tear''.

Brotnasál: Broken ''Brotna'' and soul ''Sál'' put together. Broken soul.

Feigramaer: Doomed ''Feigr'' and maiden ''Maer'' put together. Doomed Maiden. Feigr also means dead, so you could also call her a dead maiden.

Tholasál: Suffer ''Thola'' and soul ''Sál'' once again. Suffering soul.

I'd like to know your opinion. Any other ideas, perhaps?

I don't know, don't want my lady to be compared with that http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Hrefna child...

i had problem with the names as well till i found the perfect name :Kal-EL (yea i know)

Fòattrtoprttmád?r.

Or some other viking stuff like that.

If only I could translate that.

Hrygdha (sorrowful).

Vardhrún (secret-keeper)

I'm liking them both. Thanks.

You can't.

But a while ago I accidently deleted ''Hrafna''. Since I came up with a nice build for her, I will remake her.

But with a different name because I dislike the similarity between Hrefna and Hrafna.

Drifa is a simple yet elegant name meaning drifting snow.

Team up with Mjoll, which means powdered snow if I'm not mistaken, and you've got yourself a team.

Hehe, yeah Mjoll and ''she'' are somewhat different though.

While Mjoll is definitely going the warrior route, my character is going to be a sneaky type who practices illusion and necromancy.

Nevermind anyway, there's already a Drifa in Skyrim.

Sorry about that.

Yeah, I thought so aswell.

I believe it was from a character in Riften.

You can always go for that other black bird, Kráka (crow).

Just don't model your character after Brandon Lee. He's too pretty for a female character.

I'm kind of digging Leysa and Thodasál.

A bit odd for a parent to call her daughter a suffering soul. But to call your daughter a tear? A symbol of beauty within sorrow? That might do.

Bob.

You can imagine her to be more like http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs36/f/2008/261/d/2/Forest_of_sorrow_by_endlessnight_m.jpg.

So no, no Brandon Lee.

That's not Brandon Lee?

Anyway, my vote goes to Leysa.

Yeah I'm going for Leysa.

It's feminine and elegant, but still norse.

Why that's quite the coincidence.
