There was talk, literally just that talk, of maybe releasing the whole Qun language and Elvish language in some dictionary form, but it probably won't go anywhere.

 

@bengelinas G'day Mr Gelinas. few of us fans are wondering if we'll ever get like a mini Qunlat dictionary to use when coming up with names
 
@OriginOfWaves This is a good idea. I'll talk to some folks.

At this point, even a very small, very basic dictionary of some Qunari and Elvish words would be hugely appreciated for the sake of name creation (released as a pdf or even as a forum sticky).

 

That, and descriptions/explanations of the Dalish Vallaslin...

 

I try not to be greedy though...

For names I looked through a book of name meanings (Welsh, Gaelic and Celtic for Elves, Scottish and English for Humans, Arabic and African for Qunari, and Germanic and Scandinavian for Dwarves). I already have names planned out for each race  B) For the elves I used names that had meanings resembling the roles of the gods of the pantheon. Many baby naming websites have a search engine for meanings too.

Mary Kirby should drop more Qunari gems on us (by us I mean the fans).

Where's the ham of despair?

Have I said before how much I love Mr. Gaider?

You're the hero this forum deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

They've always had a default first name ie: Marian Hawke, but you'll still be able to change it to whatever you want.

I know that. I meant by saying they are giving out the first names. My bad.

Still set on Arvaarad for my first qunari mage. I figure it will irritate the maximum number of factions in Thedas, while still being a technically fitting name. :D

I'll picture Arvaarad smirking internally every time he or she introduces themselves to a capital Q Qunari. Or a Tal-Vashoth. Or a Tevinter. Or a Circle mage. While straight-facedly explaining "oh, it means 'one who holds back evil' in the language of my people", like some pretentious frat guy explaining his Chinese tattoo.

I hope someone adds the Qunari names/meanings to the wiki so people can go back and find them if they forget them once they want to have a Qunari inquisitor that's properly named *which will probably be me*

One of my favorite lines from DA2 was when Hawke says to Carver, "I'm sure someone spent way too much time choosing my name."

So demons popped up when you touched that ancient shrine, huh? You know what NEVER makes demons pop up when you interact with it? Elfroot.

If Dragon Age can have a zombie kitten army, it can have elfroot demons!
