Potential Name Change?
3 years ago
General
Hey all!
So, something's been on my mind for quite a while lately and I think it might be a good time to bring it up. As the title suggests, I'm considering changing the name of my main sona.
If you haven't noticed yet, I like giving my characters all Latin names and having those names translate into something ("Draco Solis," for example, means "Dragon of the Sun." Likewise, "Phasma Atrum" would mean "Black Ghost"). Thing is that Draco is a rather...generic name for a dragon, and there's probably a ton out there with that name. And since I'm gonna be changing up Carmen's name at some point, I'm wondering if it might be time to update Solis's name as well.
I'd likely keep the "Solis" part of the name, but I'm considering changing the first name, at least.
What do you guys think? Think a name change might be worth it? ^^

"Aurum" was the first thing that came to my mind. What sort of vibe would you want for your new name?

Honestly, I have no idea. xD I've been rather split on whether to even change it in the first place, hence me asking for opinions from others. Not necessarily on what to change it to, just on the idea of it being changed in the first place.

I would say if you have been wondering about it for a bit, maybe it is time? Take inspiration from things that resonate strongly with you and just go for it. ^..^ At the end of the day, it's whatever feels right to you and your sona.

Hm. What if instead of "Dragon of the Sun" the first word refers to keeping, holding, storing or nurturing the sun? That would get you a new latin first name to play around with while still being true to being "of the Sun."
