Help name my familiar
I need help thinking of a name for my raven familiar. I play a goth chick, spiked chain wielding duskblade that hust got a raven for a familiar and am drawing a blank on a name. Nevermore is out as it was used by another player in our group. Thank you

Re: Help name my familiar
Name him Mephistopheles and have him speak in Abyssal.
You could also give it the name of a dragon like Ashardalon and have him speak Draconic.

Re: Help name my familiar
1. Pick a language that is not your native tongue.
2. Google a translator between that language and your native tongue.
3. Translate words such as bird, raven, feather, etc.
4. Pick one.
5. ???
6. PROFIT!!

Re: Help name my familiar
Thoth. I know he was an ibis, but come on.
The Egyptians credited him as the author of all works of science, religion, philosophy, and magic. The Greeks further declared him the inventor of astronomy, astrology, the science of numbers, mathematics, geometry, land surveying, medicine, botany, theology, civilized government, the alphabet, reading, writing, and oratory. They further claimed he was the true author of every work of every branch of knowledge, human and divine.

Re: Help name my familiar
I have a tradition of sorts of naming the familiars of my characters after archfiends or similar powerful evil beings. Examples have included Hasitaal (deity of lust and corruption, basically), Orcus, and one of Sauron's lesser known names - can't recall which, though.

Re: Help name my familiar
The last time I had a character with a Raven familiar, it was named Kunguru, after the Swahili name for the pied crow. Mainly because I really like the look of pied crows.

Re: Help name my familiar
Just to throw one out of there.
Faust.Boats are like nuts, the outside is hard but the inside is usually good to eat.
And remember, things can always get worse.
