After months of tense psychological combat with my
wife she's settled on allowing the ues of
Loki as a boy's
middle name. I love the name but find that it feels a
bit short. Is there anything technically "wrong" with
combining names from different cultures to form a
new one if the meanings of the parts of the names
you're using make sense?
For example I came up with several ways to use
Lokito make new potential names to choose form.
Lokiriil:
Loki and Kiriil. I believe it would mean
something close to Lord of Chaos/Mischief or Lord
Loki .
Lokidor:
Loki and Dor/Doron/Doros. I believe this
indicates that the name means Gift of
Loki or Loved by
Loki .
Lokidin: A simple contraction of
Loki and
Odin .
Lokindr:
Loki and
Ander. If I'm not mistaken this
means something slightly more awkward like "chaos of
man" or "
Loki of Man".
Do these names actually "mean" what I think they
should mean and is there anything wrong with
combining names from different cultures in this
manner?
