Names

Random names, might be used for characters, might be used for locations:

Besnik - Sulare - Taussler - Stenin - Heriz - Jonam - Vosnik - Osarnum - Zare - Elat - Guerdia - Zossler - Tare - Kulot - Phi - Palome - Olam - Emon - Krisnet - Mossi - Basile - Digge - Malek - Nolan - Torron - Nauntig - Ala'Ramutad - Nafarem - Hamorfa - Guern - Vort - Epautib - Kalev - Vonui

1. Some are pretty crappy, I know. I don't want to use any normal names, because it's Gaea.

2. Would using names like Ala'Ramutad for a distant country be too politically incorrect?

3. I think of the names in Japanese pronounciation (eg. Balgus = Barugesu), so names like Zare is two syllables instead of one. But then the pretension that carries with a phonetic explanation at the end of a ch is probably more serious than reading it wrong.

4. Votes for names? Other ideas?

Lianad... Dietrix... Selfrid... Valeur...

actually these sound more like location names. >.<

I'm so sorry I haven't answered you yet on the DS notes. I read and re-read them, but I've been having trouble focusing lately, so it's like I can't grasp anything.

1. your names aren't crappy. any original names will never be crappy.
2. no, it's not politically incorrect.

It's okay about the DS stuff. You don't have to give me precise dissections; your reactions would be more than enough.
