Erithi Names 07/31/2013 04:09 PM CDT

I have started my journey in Elanthia as an Erithi. I am named Yethaia, and I am male, but I was curious as to whether this falls under the female Erithi naming conventions and not the male.

I noticed Ertaia Selem was an Erithi scholar, but were they a he or a she?

I couldn't find confirmation of either.

At this point, I don't think we have any official mention of naming conventions. I do know there was an NPC named Isienaka who was male, however.

Thanks for the info. I guess I'll keep my name then. See you in Elanthia.

For what it's worth, and I'm not the Erithi guru, I have never seen any obvious naming conventions, either.

My general rule of thumb for creating Erithi-sounding names has usually been Consonant-Vowel or Vowel-Consonant pairings in triplets or quartets. A single segment could be substituted as a Double Vowel.

Example: "Ochitu" Vowel-Consonant/Consonant-Vowel/Consonant-Vowel.

My Erithian is named Elihu, which weirdly fits Tamuz' convention, but was not invented by me; it's an old timey name that's fallen out of use.
