Naming Space Wolves

[warsmith]

Good morning all.

 

I'm about to emabrk on my Logan led wolf guard force, though to be different I will be calling it Krom Dragongaze's wolf guard force (as in his description it says he has a great many wolfguard, so I figured it would be the best way to rationalize it on the table top). I've set myself a few goals with the force for painting and converting, but also that each model must be armed completely differently, and that each wolfguard muct have a ranged weapon.

 

I've spent a few months working out a list for the units and models and have the 'each model is unique' stipulation sorted (or so the model list in army builder tells me!) and I have some ideas for conversions for Krom, the 3 Lone Wolves and the Runepriest. What I need now are names for each of the models and that is where I would like help.

 

I've added the model list (direct from AB3.0) and would love it if everyone would help me with names for the models.

I think it's fun to pull names from Norse Mythology. You find some bad ass characters.

Glimpse, thanks for the link, I've not had a chance to go through it in any great depth, but as with Cain's link, it looks promising!

 

 

 

I'm not sure on my actions today, I know I have to head out later and want to get this list updated with names and information but it all depends on what the sprogling allows me to do this morning I suppose. I will updae the names into the list as soon as I can, in the mean time please continue to thow suggestions and ideas my way, all are greatly appreciated!

I always liked the name Bulveye. He was the Rune Priest from the 13th that Ragnar met in the 6th book of the omnibus

RobertLee, you should put a spoiler alert on that.

Pretty good page, could have better explenations of the old names.

 

Is this thread highjacking?

My version of Bjorn is named Ulf, wanted something similar. Bjorn (Björn) means bear and Ulf means Wolf.

Also need a name for my Logan, but havent come up with one yet.

 

edit: Two posts in a row, sorry bout that..
