3: ‘A,B,C NAMING X’ Form

Genre of [name_u]Story[/name_u]: Mythological

Time Period/Location: Present day, Norway

Brief Plot: Dealing with Norse gods: descendant of Skadi finds a fallen [name_u]Loki[/name_u], and thus begins an adaption of the events leading up to Ragnarok.

Names of Current Characters: [name_f]Signe[/name_f] Amundsen(grandmother), [name_f]Hilde[/name_f] [name_u]Adair[/name_u] (mother), [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] [name_u]Adair/name_u

Character Description: 23 year old woman, loyal (kind of a resurrection of Sigyn), caring, but sarcastic and can definitely hold onto anger for too long.

Already Considered (if relevant): [name_f]Neve[/name_f], Vilde (Alvhilde), [name_f]Silje[/name_f], Merete (goes my [name_f]Mette[/name_f]?), [name_f]Oline[/name_f]/[name_f]Olina[/name_f], Brynhilde/Brynja, Haldora, Annisette, Annfried

Anything else?: Does anyone know of a name that is pronounced eye-LIS? I’ve looked at all the variations of [name_f]Eilis[/name_f], but that is a -ish sound at the end. It popped in my head after it accidentally came out of my mouth when calling my cat [name_f]Isla[/name_f].

Eyelis, why not?

Sigyn means victorious, why not [name_u]Nike[/name_u], or another [name_u]Nic[/name_u]- name, lol no pun intended.

[name_f]Sunniva[/name_f]?

“Eye-lis” would be perfect. I would make my own spelling and meaning. As a variation to [name_f]Isla[/name_f] or [name_f]Eilis[/name_f]. Maybe Ilis or Eylis.
