7/10 Tharlious sounds strong and sturdy but not very Sylvari like.

Just made a Sylvari thief called Andhsláine, Andh is Sanskrit for blind/darkness and slán is Gaelic for defiance.

Gave him the darkest brown wood skin color there was with Midnight Fire hair, planning to keep the starter hood on him through out the game, might change it later.

As for me, I have two.

My second is Maedhbh, my Mesmer. pronounced like Cave but with an M. :P Irish name meaning intoxicating.

Sylvari NPC names are typically Gaelic or Welsh.
My sylvari mesmer’s name is:

Aneirin; meaning honorable/noble, and
Cadwall; a derivative of Cadwallen, which means ‘battle dissolver’

It was a convenient coincidence that sylvari names were chosen to be Gaelic/Welsh…

After the redesign, I had decided my primary character would be a sylvari whose personality was based upon the faded, distant memories of ‘his ancestor’:

A certain human mesmer who spent a lot of time appreciating the beauty and the purpose of Ventari’s Refuge…

Of course, the memory of his name was at least a little blurrier than that of his personality and his deeds… so it came out a little different from the dream of dreams.

As for rating the name above mine… the depth of detail to which I went in naming mine leads me to wonder how you named yours.

Preliminary rating of 6/10 in favor of your rating of the name above yours. lol

I’ll give it an 8.5/10. It’s interesting and makes for a good name, but I’m not much of a fan of surnames for Sylvari as they are just “one big family”… or at least from what I’ve read about online.

I am installing the game right now, but I already know my first character is going to be a Sylvari Necromancer by the name of Silthir. I use the name Silthir (or a variation of it) for every MMO/RPG that I play, but I feel it suits the Sylvari more than any of the other races. (:

Silthir sounds really nice and it’s even kinda celtic-sounding i’d rate it 9/10

I also have a sylvari necro, her name is Ciara Eldersoul.
Ciara is the female form of “Ciarán” which is a gaelic male name, meaning “little dark one” or “blacky” according to wikipedia :P I thought it fits a necromancer, though her skin and hair color is almost white actually, but necromancy is still a “dark” profession.
The Eldersoul part of the name… i saw those giant tree spirits called “veteran pinesoul” or “oakheart” and thought it sounded cool. There are several beliefs and superstitions about the elder tree and witchcraft, and it’s also a poisonous plant basically (the leaves, twigs and uncooked berries) so i thought it also fit well with necromancy+sylvari

Yeah Sylvari use a mixture of Gaelic, old English and Arthurian type names it seems.

Yeodre, I like it, sounds similar to Yeoman, which is a freeman militia (normally long-bowmen) in medieval England and Wales. Very fitting for a ranger. Unsure about the surname though.

It looks nice (the word) and sounds nice! (Although I’m not sure) it seems to fit in the lore as well or at least sounds like one that fits.
And a nice reference to the material cinder by choosing such a color scheme too which still doesn’t stand out too much.
