Guild Wars 2

I’ve been thinking of creating a Norn for a while now, but I don’t get how they are usually named. So, how do you create an appropriate name for a Norn? (I’m going to make a female one, by the way)

Generally IMO you want to go with a nordic sounding name, as it seems to fit Norn lore the closest. Some examples would be

Garulf Icebreaker
Ellandra Danedottir
Rygar Hammergard

etc.etc. This is just my opinion, really you should name your character what sounds right to you

Thanks! I’ll go look into Nordic sounding names for her.

Basically, go for Icelandic names – plain and simple. Any other nordic language is fine too :] Personally, I went with the Icelandic version of one of Odin’s Valkyries (Hildr)!
