Gygaxing people's names

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

Jack Vance "Vanced" my name several times, from the ordinary "Lird Gygax" to a "Gax" and than a "Xagyg" IIRR.

You know, I read the Dying Earth books and didn't pick up on that. Interesting that it started with him. But like Marconi and the radio, I'm still going to credit you with it, sir, since you're the one who most famously did it!

Quake and tremble before me, mortals, for you face Romsa the Wicked.

Hmm... Nai Ztlot's my real name backwards. Nai works, Ztlot not so much... Nai Zotl. Yay!

Some friends of mine:

Otullat the Wise
Dranoel the Large
Nived the Cowardly
Acceber the Almighty

Nitsuj works well, just sounds vaguely Asian to me.

 

[blargney the second]

Nivek Egavas actually works decently. I might have to try that sometime.

My real name is Keith. I made a PC named Theik for the STAP game we started last year. It was Greyhawk, and I never had a PC with an anagram name before, so I just had to do it.

Nomaga sounds Asian. Gonama is a bit wierd. Gnomaa?

 

[Asmor]

Gnomaa?

If you name yourself that, people will think you're a red sox fan.

"NOMAAAA!"
