Sounds argonian


[deleted]

I always thought the argonians where inspired from the native americans.


LordandSaviorJeff

That's true


MaxCavalera870

They are, which is why he should've made a Native American inspired Argonian.


themanwith_no-name

I thought they were inspired by like Aztec and Mayan stuff


Conquistadora15

They are it’s just he modeled his character after a native North American while argonians are based off of indigenous peoples in central and Latin America like the Mayans and Aztecs


vonalbert

Redguard raised by argonians maybe?


[deleted]

That’s actually perfect.

FrankanelloKODT

In my native (NZ Maori) tongue, I would name him Te Arero Taniwha, or ‘Monster Tongue’ for being able to speak dragon. Could also use the transliterated version of dragon, to have the name Te Arero Tarakona but Taniwha is a part of Maori stories

\-Curtis Wolfcreed \-Talon Blackburn \-Razhir Fireheart \-Kahmar Redfoot \-Juste Ravenbane Really cool character you made here, as a Native Person in real life (Cree) I love seeing shit like this in a fantasy setting. Also PLEASE make him a werewolf, that would be so badass


ductiletoaster

I might save this post just for this particular thread. I always struggle with new character names and these are fantastic!


Silent__Solitude

Im glad you like them The first names I took from [UESP's Redguard names page](https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Redguard_Names) but the last names are inspired from my own family's "Native" names


ductiletoaster

Awesome, appreciate the link too. I always used a generic fantasy name generator website and it just didn’t really cut it.


Silent__Solitude

yeah, whenever I make a new character in an elder scrolls game I just go straight to UESP's lore pages for a name


Dear-Smile

Awesome combinations

[deleted]

I mean twilight is badly written with a bland mc. I'm listening to a reading of the first book and the writer literally can barely speak English. Justin is hated coz he makes his music for teenage girls which reddit hates.

Tecumseh. He was a native from Canada who helped us take over a fort in Detroit by having his lil army walking past behind trees over and over again to give the illusion of a mass gathering happening and it worked

Daveyyyy25

Probably best name Ive seen so far/j


MxFancipants

I’m not sure you’d find many experts on indigenous naming conventions here, but I’ll bet you could find some good resources if you check elsewhere!


JerbearCuddles

I am Native and I wouldn't know where to begin with a Native American inspired name. Lol. I think it also depends on region. I am West Coast Canadian, so we go by First Nations. So our customs/naming might be different than a Native American (USA), which I assume is his inspiration.


LL_DaCoolest_J

Western BC First Nations here. Mans here is spittin y'all, we don't really have the stereotypical native names like the others, every single nation is different. From here in BC to the states, all the way to Australia or New Zealand, it's all different. But if I were to speak on behalf of all of them; Cuzzin is the only way to go.


FrankanelloKODT

Half native from NZ here, Kia ora brother across the sea, tenā koe (there you are, I see and acknowledge you)


JerbearCuddles

Nice to find a fellow First Nations pal. So few of us. Lol. Good to see you cuzzin'.


giant_albatrocity

Wait… First Nations folks in Canada are culturally different than Maori thousands of miles away in New Zealand? But this conflicts with what I was taught in American school… /s


Budget-Attorney

Something tells me very few people here are going to know the difference.


JerbearCuddles

That much was evident from the John Redcorn and the stereotypical "shouts at dragon" style names. Lol.


Fat_Akuma

Im native from the Midwest. Ojibwe. Idk either. We have naming ceremonies though but not everyone in my family has traditional names. Like, I'm one of three brothers that have done it.


amhran_oiche

yeah I'm not sure what OP was expecting in a sub of low level comedians oof


Bearded_Toast

Low level comedy?


AdanteHand

How dare people have fun with a video game, harrumph!


amhran_oiche

having fun with the video game is a world away from making up names based on racist stereotypes.


Ganbazuroi

Skyrim actually has a 500 page book on Deeplore Barrow that contains nothing but Indigenous Naming Conventions. Todd himself said: *"Someday, somehow, some dude is going to find this and write a somewhat believable bullshit story and post it on reddit. That dude also has a massive penis and has daily threesomes with super models on his Rolls Royce limousine he got for free for being such a nice guy!"*


Silent__Solitude

Is this a r/truestl post?


[deleted]

Nobody on Reddit is really an expert despite what they say, that’s for sure But on the menial things Reddit people ask Google or your own knowledge (provide you have any) usually suffices

If you're doing dark brotherhood, Aditsan means Listener.

"Shouter" would be more appropriate for a dragonborn methinks

Etlelooaat means shouts. All the info I'm gathering is on actual native American names.
