CainTheHunter Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Ulfson Wolfbane for my Wolf lord? Let me translate this for You - Wolfson Wolfbane. Does it makes sense? ;) Kind of WOLFY marines from WOLF planet full with WOLVES, painted with Space WOLF grey, riding giant WOLVES, led into battle by their Great WOLF, WOLF lords, WOLF priests, wielding WOLF claws and WOLF standards. I called my Rune priest Halvdane One-Eyed. Which means slightly visually impaired half-dane :D The reason for one-eyed was bacause I chose that beardy head from space WOLF (oh no, here it goes again...) pack sprue with an eye-patch. My opinion is that You need some striking menacing names for Your characters, which would support their sagas, or have some trick behind it. Something like - Thunderlord Sigurd the Short (crazy, red-beard bastard, the shortest WG in the Chapter, rides Thunderwolf to compensate it), or Hrafnir "Walrus" Teutulson - WOLF lord on bike - the reference to Orange County Choppers, etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/223288-names/#findComment-2669999 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asaheim Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I named my Land Raider Ylva, which can be roughly translated to "Protective Wolf Mother". I found it rather suiting.

Grimfoe Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I named my Land Raider Ylva, which can be roughly translated to "Protective Wolf Mother". I found it rather suiting. B) Wow. That's kind of sweet. In an odd kind of way. (of course, who am I kidding, my Wolf Lord is Jugger Grimfoe. No origin, just made it up) Anyway, in another thread, Maverick and Rameses noted that they use Naval based names for their transports as an homage to the sea faring origins of the people of Fenris. I thought that was pretty cool. I'd go in that direction. After you're done naming your people, of course.

Bergelmir Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 My Wolf Lord is Skarvald the Troll-faced. :D Can you show me that codex entry? No offense intended, it's just that I read that blog post awhile ago and your reply here sparked my memory! My Wolf Priest is called Svald the Scarred.

Paradill Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I'm pretty boring as far as my wolf lord goes, I just use Gunnar Redmoon. As I am a fluff monster I do name every wolf in my force though so from what I have so far- Gunnar Redmoon - Wolf Lord Kruger Stormcrow - Rune Priest Hothar Keenaxe - Wolfguard pack leader (with the two handed axe) Broddi Swiftblood - Blood Claw Egril Ironfeather - Blood Claw Erland Fjordbreaker - Blood Claw Frodi the Tall - Blood Claw Fromund the Short - Blood Claw Grim Longhowl - Blood Claw Odd of Laxdale - Blood Claw Throst of Vapnfjord - Blood Claw Tjorvi of Vapnfjord - Blood Claw Var of Hrolf - Blood Claw Bjorn Foehammer - Grey Hunter Sjorn Rockfang - Grey Hunter Rakmar Greatblade - Grey Hunter Jarek Wyrmbone - Grey Hunter Agnar the Huge - Grey Hunter Valthor Truesight - Grey Hunter Thorak Bloodbeard - Grey Hunter Darrith Greymane - Grey Hunter Ber Scaleshield - Grey Hunter Fridrik Scarhand - Grey Hunter I could go on but feel free to use any of the names I have here, or mix and match, I find a scandinavian sounding name and some form of title referring to a great deed they have done works. Some of my Blood Claws haven't earned a title yet (understandably) so they have <name> of <place> instead. Hope this helps Paradill Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/223288-names/#findComment-2684155 Share on other sites More sharing options...
