Stock OC Names: Quenya Female

[surgicalsteel]

There's also Elleth's point about the root 'Vende' meaning something like 'Maiden' or 'Girl.' I remembered that after seeing her comment because I once gave that as a name to a young girl's doll and I was trying for something as close to 'Colleen' as I could get.

So it'd be an unfortunate name for a guy, that's all.

If it's just a spear-carrier type, merely someone mentioned/alluded to rather than actually playing a part in the story, does he absolutely need a name?

[erulisse]

Although he is mentioned by name in the first draft, the story has a lot of editing still remaining and it may well end up on the cutting room floor and be a moot point. He could also just be mentioned by his title or job description, so other options are available if he survives into the final tale.

Thanks again for your input, it was very valuable.
