Guild Wars 2

^Sounds a bit too generic… Especially Olaf sounds VERY generic.

Raskild Raveneye

Asra Wolfheart – Guardian

Don’t know how I came up with it :p I just liked the name wolfheart and thought it as quite norn esque and Asra I just came up with off the top of my head. She’s my favourite character because Guardians are just cool and the name suits a Guardian I think.

Sounds nice. Maybe because I love wolves haha.

My warrior is Asgrond the Mighty! A Champion of Jormag and loyal to dragon! O:<

Warlord.8075:

Sigmar Skyhammer – Male Warrior

Haha, there are 2 Skyhammers in this game! Thats the same last name as my Ele (Steinar Skyhammer)

Personally not a fan of Bob Nounverber names, but it works if you use Conjure Lightning.

Svana Ölrúnardóttir – Mesmer

My three, no, wait, four , Norn are:

Berghildr: Guardian. My first live character.
Ravensworn: Necromancer. She was born Esgred, but has devoted herself fully to the service of Raven.
Ulfrigg Stormborn: Engineer. Cleverly combining the word ‘Ulfr’ with the name Frigg.
Sigrún Trollbane: Ranger. My ranger wasn’t supposed to be Norn, but I really like the name.

Berghildr – Awesome and simple.
Ravensworn – Also simple yet classy.
Ulfrigg Stormborn – Not my favorite surname, but I dig it on the whole.
Sigrun Trollbane – I quite like this one, but I’m a fan of any Sig prefix. Trollbane is kind of cliche, but classic.

My Norn Guardian is Skadi Thundersteel. Thundersteel after the Riot song and just because it was cool. I thought about translating the surname to Tordenstal, or even running with Svartmetal, but decided against it since perhaps Norse isn’t actually Norn. It was approved by my Norwegian friends and family, so that’s good enough for me.

Oh! I love the name Skadi, it’s really Norn-ish. The Thundersteel sounds like a surname a Norn would have, considering the surname of the NPCs in the game, it’s a nice choice.

My Hunter is Agnes Löfgren, I just like the name Agnes and looked around for a surname to go with it, nothing too fancy…

very nice… Agnes is a strong name, which fits well with the norn.

Mine is named Ingvar Shieldstrom, a nord whom I invented for a roleplaying game with friends awhile back. Thought it fit and I already had a detailed backstory for the guy, so I went with it.

Ingar Shieldstrom sounds awesome, although the surname consisting of an english and a scandinavian word clashes somewhat in my opinion.

My Norn’s name is Allmsberg- It came out more german-sounding than I had planned.

Allmsberg is reminding me of beer, and this is good : ) But i think that should be your shurname or nickname for you norn : ) Like Olaf Allmsberg or something. Or people just call him by his shurname becose they forgot his name.

My Norn’s names are:
Ragnve for my ranger, she is wolfmaster specialized in bows.
Varrka for my warrior, she is red haired with a big sense of humour and hungry for blood.

Ranger: 8/10

Warrior: 7/10

My name is: Sir Derpula

Would fit more a human imo. xD

Bearball (warrior)

Bearball, took me a second but I like it, I think of Butteerbean when I hear lol.

I just made a Ranger Named Wolfgang Reknar, despite his name he follows Bear and has a bear companion.

I like the last name a lot. First name could use some work though since its germanic instead of nordic. Also you even kind of hint that it should lose points since he is a follower of bear named wolf.

First name = 4/10
Last name = 10/10
Overall 7.5/10

My warrior’s name is Freyr Bloodedge.

I like it, it sounds brutal, as a warrior’s name should be! I do hope it’s a female warrior, since Freyr sounds feminine : 9/10

My male warrior is called: Gunnar Lundgren

I hope someone gets the reference

Gunnar Lundgren… Don’t get the reference, but I like the first name. Surname seems a bit too Germanic to be a Norn name, but it has a nice ring to it nonetheless. 8/10

Sigrid Stormblade, nee Earunsdottir, is my current Norn… Sigrid “Halfblade” if you want to mock her (and by extension die)! She’s a female Norn Ranger, only recently had her mother’s greatsword reforged (got cut in half by her rival at a recent moot) and is clamoring to regain some of her lost glory. By killing a giant earthworm made of ice and spikes. Yeah.

Also: Freya Earunsdottir, Sigrid’s youngest sister. I could go on and on (I’m an RPer, I gave her a family and a backstory, so sue me ;3)

And now (sorry for the triple names, you only have to rate one if you don’t want to do them all though!) Maddi Fairtongue, Sigrid’s older sister, second-oldest of their family. Apprentice Skaald (so basically a Guardian ;3), who uses a sword and focus.

8/10

Name is: Felzerku

With a single name it sounds like someone who has gone off on their own to make their own legend. I get the feel of an up and coming Norn who is making a name for themself. The name also makes me think of a Beserker
7/10

Name is: O I I I O

6/10→ How the hell do I pronounce that?

Leauvana: Elementalist.
Ein Sof: Ranger.

6/10- doesn’t sound very norn like
7/10- has a good ring to it

Name: Volsung Dragonheart

My norn ranger:
Frigg Nidhogg Bani
favorite pets:
Dreyri Lifbrott (Lynx)
Frjósa Banahogg (Snow Leopard)

Beep! Beep! I’m a Jeep

Hi All,

My norn ranger: Ingram Snow ( I whant to change soname )
norn Warrior : Signy Hess

I don’t really like the names up there—- they’re special, but not my kind of thing! The first one reminds me of Instagram…

My norn elementalist: Fae Oddsdottir
Yes, she is a cousin of Gullik Oddsson and a sister of Gyda Oddsdottir (at least in my universe – don’t judge).
(Fae – as in FAY)

With all the right reasons. It’s just me, I assure you. I have strange things running through my mind…

Don’t worry, I’m still quite normal.

Great surnames! If I may in all my modesty add, of those three I think Torgersen flows best with the name. But I like all three very much! I think you have a knack for genuine, yet interesting names.

Celöbram Oathsworn

Runa Irongaze – she’s an Engineer who lost an eye to Issormir, and replaced it with a small device of her own making. Gives me an RP reason to wear that awesome engi monocle, too

Runa Irongaze sounds pretty nice for a Nordic lady My Nord warrior is named Draegar Behrstrom. It sounds like a steadfast and strong name

I like the sound of Draegar Behrstrom. I agree that it gives impression of a strong character and matches up with the profession.
My Norn warrior is called Rangrid Sverdeidr

Celöbram Oathsworn-somehow this one got missed, I like it, I’m never sure how to pronounce umlauts, but it looks good!
Rangrid Sverdeidr- The name looks great, especially the last name. Very germanic sounding!

Asherah Redmane- warrior- and yes she has red hair. Asherah or some variation has been my chick toons’ go to name ever since EQ1
Kazzok Blackthorne- guardian- Kazzok was my barbarian warrior in EQ1. So another name for me that has been there since the beginning.

the last name makes sense for a norn!
especially for a warrior norn. Asherah is just a pretty name i think that would fit other races of warrior

My mesmer’s norn name is Mahzarin it means gold moon I think.. I love gold – and Z is my favourite letter so… yea!

she is slightly tan and has star tattoos and med blonde hair!

I like that name but it sounds more from the middle east than any nordic country. Then again having an exotic name may just fit a mesmer perfectly anyway, and there’s still the strong suspicion that the Norn have mixed with other people in the last 200 years, as hinted at by Braham in F&F.

I have a Norn Elementalist named Connlaoch Stonebear. It’s pronounced Connla, and I’ll admit is much more Irish than Norse. And of course I’ve spec’d him earth and frequently slot Become the Bear.

Oooh cool name! I think it suits a norn perfectly, specially the surname and I really like how you matched your character with the name, with the bear and earth-thingy!

My norn is named:
- Ulva Moontooth!

I wanted to name her Ulva Måntand, but since Å was a unavailable letter I simply translated her surname to english!
Her whole name is based on wolves!

I got 3.

Rynhildr Vardsdottir (Couldn’t fit that in so it’s just Ryn) – Warrior
Meida Vardsdottir – Engineer (^Her sister, in case you couldn’t work that one out^)
Thrisda Stigsdottir – Ranger (I thought I would try a different race for my ranger, but I was looking at my char menu and just thought “needs more Norn”)

Sgt Merrick.7285:

I got 3.

Rynhildr Vardsdottir (Couldn’t fit that in so it’s just Ryn) – Warrior
Meida Vardsdottir – Engineer (^Her sister, in case you couldn’t work that one out^)
Thrisda Stigsdottir – Ranger (I thought I would try a different race for my ranger, but I was looking at my char menu and just thought “needs more Norn”)

All 3 very norn like names I think.

Male Norn ranger: Beariden Wildheart.

Female Norn Guardian: Brynja Frostheart. (Brynja is norse for armor…usually associated with heavy armor)

Male Norn ranger: Beariden Wildheart.

Female Norn Guardian: Brynja Frostheart. (Brynja is norse for armor…usually associated with heavy armor)

Beariden Wildheart makes me think of a giant Norn riding on a giant bear, which is awesome.

Brynja sounds pretty fitting, and follows the ‘heart’ theme you seem to have set up(?).

My female ranger: Freja Sifdottir. My first norn character and I’ve been struggling to find a good name.

Sena.2761:

My female ranger: Freja Sifdottir. My first norn character and I’ve been struggling to find a good name.

Looks to be a combo of Sif and Freja. both North Goddess. Still seems to be fitting for the norn environment.

Ungood – Norn Guardian a reference to the Orewlian novel, 1984.

Ungood i give a 7/10

My Norn Elementalist name is “Aweburn”

:D

peppers.6192:

Ungood i give a 7/10

My Norn Elementalist name is “Aweburn”

:D

8/10. Cute name, I’m going to guess she’s a redhead :P

Here’s a pic of my lowbie ranger Kimbia, and her bear Rawrface. He has a habit of photobombing my screenshots.

I have numerous Norn’s so here are their names:

Bjorn The Greatwolf – Warrior

Alfrún Bjorndottir – Necro

Rökkr Bjornson – Ranger

Njal The Stormcaller – Guardian

Njal is an awesome name, plus the Storms that add on nicely to that. Nice one mate!

[Hanza Snowcloak]

Can someone else review Draegar Behrstrom? He’s a norn warrior with a militant personality, and I wanted the name to sound strong and heavy. Hanza Snowcloak, while being simple, is a pretty good name. The last name is better than the first, which may need some retouching. I give it a 7/10.

When I first started playing GW2 I was surprised to see so many Icelandic names (I’m Icelandic). I actually thought that this game had become instantly popular here without me noticing, but then I realised that everyone just wanted a realistic name for their Norn character, which is awesome!

Anyway, Draegar Behrstrom. It’s sounds pretty neat when you say it out loud, a bit Swedish. I’m picturing a headstrong, tall, muscular Norn with a booming voice. Yeah, the last name is a bit more appealing, at least to me.

My Norn’s name is Fanndís Ósk Þorbjarnardóttir. It’s actually quite a typical Icelandic name. Fanndís is derived from the Icelandic word “fönn” which means “snow” and the word “dís” which means “fairy”. “Ósk” means “a wish”.
What do you guys think?

Draegar Behrstrom sounds like a really tough guy, who I’d rather not get in a fight with at the moot. And I’m surprised you were able to fit Fanndís Ósk Þorbjarnardóttir in for your character, and I have no idea how to say it, but it looks awesome!

I have 3 Norn right now, but my most recent one (who is a guardian) is Halvor Björnson, I believe the translation for Halvor is “guardian of the rock” and Björnson is “son of bear”

Like The Name and all. But i have seen way to many people that include “Björn” in theire names, will give it a 7/10. Even Halvor i seen i think really often :s

My Norn name: Rowtan
Class:Guardian
Gender: Male(even though i changed the gender twice with him just to see how a t3 norn heavy armor would look on him as a female)

Rithian Fhenrir! Added the h in the name because Fenrir is overused, it also gives a certain thing whenever i use my name like that.

Btw cool names above for the 3 norns, they do sounds allot like vikings however
