Frequently Asked Questions
How do R-initial names differ from vowel-initial ones?
Liquid initials feel more flowing and approachable; vowel initials feel more ancient and distant. Both are covered by the sibling pages.
Why do these names so often flow through -l, -n, or -r?
Liquid sounds are the tradition's signature for softness and motion. R-initial names inherit that same fluent, flowing quality.
Are R-initial names better for one gender?
They are neutral. The ending sets the feel — soft endings read gentle, sharp endings read bold — so any character can carry them.
