Now jokes aside, I do really hope his character and story does justify his naming, because he certainly doesn't look like something I'd call Fenrir/Fenris.
Aside from the strange notion that someone would need to "look" like their name, yes, there is a reason he's called Fenris. No, it has nothing to do with his abilities.
The look-argument is foremostly based upon my reaction when seeing the name "Fenris" and then looking upon that character which appears to be designed to make people go "Squeee, he's cute!".
I just fell straight for my own five.second preconception and can't get to lose this particular (frustration ain't quite the right word, but I am currently lacking a more appropriate vacabulary, it's a bit stronger than what I'd call disappointment, but this is due to my nature defining and using principles/words in a very exact manner most of the time).
As long as he sounds like someone who's been merely a living weapon for all the time he can remember and who has endureed great hardships and his story and character fits (his story does actually seem to have great parallels with the original Fenris) I am perfectly fine, but as for know, I can't stop picturing him other than like Zevran, and I think you can agree with me that is nothing like a mythical, godpowered, giant wolve.
