Ex Orientem; a naming spree—
So what I thought I’d do is maybe take on Ex Orientem as my personal “in” at Ne Interire. In the course of which, I went ahead and nailed down S139’s name as I’d threatened to a couple of weeks before, as well as the two Inceptum foundlings who’d gone through orientation with Ex. —And then there was the rush of blue-schismed Lemmites, so I cleared out a few Lemmish names I’d had kicking around. To summarize my spree:
I tried to find all the various nooks and crannies their codes had been hiding and do ’em up as proper names. —As for Ex, I’ll figure out his numbers and a few more details about him and post over the next few days. Unless someone else has plans? |

Yay Naming Spree! (Perhaps I just have a filthy mind, but those male Blue Circulans have the most obscene-sounding names... I can't seem to stop thinking of them as "the Glutinous Genitals and the Crocus Cunt." Obviously I need to get out more. Or just plain get more. Or something.) Yay for more on Ex Orientem, too! |

Zimmerman, and a note for Charles— Snerk. —I was poking around some Bob Dylan lyrics, looking for colors, which explains some of the Lemmish names. —But Uxor I’m having vaguish second thoughts about: I’d originally wanted “Carpenter’s Wife,” but there’s no real word I can find for carpenter, so I went with faber/fabri, only Uxor Fabri wasn’t really all that and a bag of chips, so I threw in a color, and then it seemed that “orangesmith” was kind of intriguing, but if that’s the actual translation, then the name really ought to be Uxor Aurantificis, not Uxor Fabri Aurantius, which is really “The Orange Smithwife.” So maybe it ought to be up to Charles, since she is the filia of his lexicographer, but maybe I should have left it up to Charles entirely in the first place. |

Addendum to new mage names Just noticed this one, so I'm adding it here so that when I update the trees, I'll remember it. |
