Sarnak Names

So With RoK coming out soon.
Anybody thought of what they are going to name there new Sarnak?

I know exactly what I'm going to name my little Sarnak, but I'm of the paranoid delusional sort that doesn't want to say lest someone thinks "wow that's a great name I think I'll use it before she does". My last name will be Nayukhuut'Chet though as it is with all my charactors.

theres going to be probably a couple hundred LordNaaagggaffen and Draaajin 's

Unfortunatly you're prolly right. -_-

Just to give you an idea of typical sarnak names and naming syntax, I'll refer you to the named mobs from Chardok in EQlive.
Much like the Dark Elves, an apostrophe is a big thing for the sarnaks. Too bad that we can't use them for naming our characters.

Have you ever read Larry Niven's "Pak Protector" books? Those names seem to indicate the integration of non-vocal sounds into the names (read: Like the sound of a quickly closing beak). For example Pish*pok* where the *pok* sound can be approximated by cupping both hands together and "popping" them in a clap motion.

I tossed these into a name generator to come up with a lot of random names for some of my NPCs (or to be used on the fly for NPCs like guards who aren't related to quests at all). Obviously it isn't meant to represent the full spectrum of Sarnak names, merely a set of examples First name = Prefix + Gender Suffix Last name = Prefix + ` (not ', I used ` to be consistent with eq1, and cause it looks cool hehe) + suffix First name prefixes: "Tal", "Tel", "Til", "Tol", "Tul", "Val", "Vil", "Vol", "Vul", "Thal", "Thel", "Thil", "Thol", "Thul", "Zal", "Zel", "Zil", "Zol", "Zul", "Ral", "Rel", "Ril", "Rol", "Rul", "Traen", "Trun", "Tar", "Ter", "Tir", "Tor", "Tur", "Tyr", "Chal", "Chel", "Chil", "Chol", "Chul", "Char", "Chor", "Claz", "Clez", "Cliz", "Cloz", "Cluz", "Gar", "Ger", "Gir", "Gor", "Gur", "Var", "Ver", "Vir", "Vor", "Vur", "Tlec", "Tan", "Ten", "Tin", "Ton", "Tun", "Garo", "Gero", "Goro", "Guro", "Taro", "Tero", "Tiro", "Toro", "Turo", "Tyro", "Ta", "Te", "Ti", "To", "Tu", "Ty", "Be", "By", "Ba", "War", "Wyr", "Ar", "Aer", "Ara", "Are", "Ari", "Aro", "Aru", "At", "An", "Bre", "Byr", "Chyr", "Chry", "Crae", "Car", "Con", "Dar", "Dyr", "Dvar", "Dvor", "Daar", "Er", "Ere", "Era", "Ere", "Eri", "Ero", "Eru", "Eyr", "Hla", "Hlor" First name suffixes (female): "cha", "che", "chi", "chon", "chun", "zakla", "zekla", "zikla", "zokal", "zukal", "zykla", "lakla", "lekla", "likla", "lokal", "lukal", "lykla", "kanil", "kenil", "kinil", "konli", "kunli", "kaera", "kuri", "kori", "dakil", "dekil", "dikil", "dokli", "dukli", "dykil", "wana", "wen", "win", "won", "wun", "wyn", "ak" First name suffixes (male): "char", "che", "chi", "cho", "chu", "zak", "zek", "zik", "zok", "zuk", "zyk", "lak", "lek", "lik", "lok", "luk", "lyk", "kan", "ken", "kin", "kon", "kun", "kaer", "kur", "kor", "dak", "dek", "dik", "dok", "duk", "dyk", "wan", "wen", "win", "won", "wun", "wyn", "ak" Last name prefixes: "Nibi", "Ska", "Di", "Dih", "Ku", "Mirt", "Zum", "Mak", "Shai", "Zo", "Dry", "Gi", "Al", "Myli", "Hir", "Riz", "Niba", "Sky", "Mok" Last name suffixes: "zi", "tu", "ouz", "lul", "uul", "ha", "din", "lun", "ervs", "dn", "mok", "ele", "tak", "touz", "guur", "ki", "roul", "oul", "lok", "nok", "rok", "sok", "tok", "dok", "zok", "bin", "kin", "lin", "nin", "xin", "zin", "rin", "vin", "ki", "li", "ri", "ti", "vi", "xi"

Ooooooo thank you!

hmmm last name: Nibi`li
*giggle*

Saerkin. That's perfect. Although now I'm even sadder that we can't have first names like Wyr`Zocal as a first name. *sniffles* Stupid lack of symbols.
Edit: I realize that the first name doesn't specify a ` but I like the break between the two sounds that that reprisents.

Sar'kasm Or maybe Sand'wich hmm.. on an interesing note: looks like they had Ratonga slaves.

Just remember, players can't use apostrophes in thier names.

Personaly, Cusashorn is the perfect name for a Sarnak.

aww.. let me have my Sand'wich! hehehe

I am going for the silly route myself Imachicken Lizard. or some alteration of the letters to get the same effect.

azzkrak, krakor, dirtydiaper,leeznerd,orkahn,proznak are all worthy sarnak names imo

` <---that thing.

You can use it in your surname. Unless they changed something of course, as it's been quite some time since I made Del`Forel my surname.

I think Cusa is talking about first names cuz last names can use the apostrophe or the ` and be accepted. I'm pretty paranoid as well about giving details on my names so I'll just not share it. I will however, because the name I'm using in ANY game has *never* had a surname associated with it, prolly use the Sarnak pre/suffix examples given to give her a last name.
