I’m creating a female Norn Engineer, and I’ve settled on the name Siv, however I want a title for her.

A little backstory, she’s going to be one of the Norn who hangs around Lion’s Arch, hence why she has picked up Engineering from the locals there. She seeks to reclaim her “Norn-hood” so to speak, or become attuned to nature once more, while retaining her training as an Engineer.

So anyway, if someone could suggest a good title to tack on to the name, that’d be awesome.

Do you want her with a Norn title or a non-Norn engineering title?

Corsair Siv
Mercenary Siv
Siv The Pirate

got those from a wiki article
“In 1230 AE, corsairs, along with other mercenaries and pirates, settled in Lion’s Arch, rebuilding it with the wreckage of the shipwrecks caused by the waves. They are now one of the groups that populate the free city and many captains rule over it.”

Siv Gunhammer
Siv Dredgekin (Dredgekin would probably be a name other Norns give to you for messing around with engineering and using tools like the dredge do.)

those are a few from the top of my head atm. If anymore come to mind, I’ll be sure to stop here and post them.

I like the idea of Gunhammer. I’ll tinker around with it, but thank you for the suggestion!

I use a site that is basically an old norse dictionary. I just pick out some words that match the attitude I am going for and Wa-La..norse name. Here a few you could use based on the Engineer (guns). Bruni/Hyrr = Fire, Pryjma=thunder, Bani=death, Dolg=battle, Hjorr=Sword, Vapn/Skoo= Weapon. And example would be Bani HyrrSkoo (Death Fire weapon). Just a thought.

Do not be fooled by what we percieve. Where there is perception there is deception.

Siv Jarnhyrr = Siv Ironfire
Siv Jarndis = Siv Ironspirit
Siv Jarnfylgja = Siv Ironspirit (although in this case Fylgja refers to an animal spirit)

My two norns are named in a norse fashion aswell.

Skallagrim Kveldulv = Guardian. (wolf spirit)
Hilding Hrafnson = Ranger. (raven spirit)

Skallagrim means either “Bald and masked/helmeted” or “Grim skull”, the interpretation may vary just as the spelling, depending on region and time. Kveldulv means Nightwolf.

Hilding means “chieftain”, can also be interpreted as “of battle/son of battle”.

Let Valkyries guide me to my destiny.
