Help[Opinions] Re: Names for Angels
in reply to a message by kinree
Byron, Eden, Quintessence, other things like those...
I have a pretty strong association between angelic figures and tragedy or idyllicism...paradise lost and all that...so that's a factor plus those could be people I know (so it doesn't matter to me whether the character is actually tragic or idyllic or not, they sound real but maybe a little ironic).
ETA: Idk if that's what you want, but "biblically accurate but not actually accurate" doesn't give me a real vibe. If I was trying for mystical-historical(?), my 1st thought is that maybe I would look at rare medieval Judeo-Spanish names like Orovida for inspiration.
