Macska & the Name Game
Macska & the Name Game
Macska
I love your story! I loved Cake too. Just one question: why do you use hungarian names (Zsigmond, Elek)? Sorry, if my english is not perfect, I'm hungarian. :)
First off I would like to say thank God for the Internet. I am so surprised to have readers all over the world…I am so thankful that you like my writing. I will try to keep your interest as the story continues.
Okay, now for the names in the three books. I have been leeching off this site for names the entire time. Any mistakes are entirely my own invention and I claim them. And you thought I was clever.

HOUSE OF VON DRACHENFELD – (from Dragon Field -- old roman stone quarry)
Xavier – Basque/Spanish – New House
Azrael – Hebrew/Arabic – whom God helps
Edward (Sex) – English – wealth protector
Marcus – Latin - from the god Mars
Armor – (Wikipediea) Armor is protective clothing intended to defend its wearer from intentional harm
Claudius – Latin – disabled
Claudia (female form of Claudius) – Latin – disabled
William (Liam)- germanic - will, desire, protection
Hades – greek - In Greek mythology Hades was the god of the dead and of the underworld, also known as the Hades
NORTHERN LYCAN
Britta – Gaelic -- the exalted one
Haley – English -- hay clearing
Zsigmond – German/Hungarian - protector
Elek – Greek/Hungarian - defender
VAMPIRES
Thomas – Aramaic – twin
Armanita – I just made that up.
HUNTERS
Shayne – English – God is gracious
Now what the hell does this have to do with your question. Nothing, I was just lollygagging. But, I did made a conscious decision to make Britta’s pack Hungarian. So the following is a very rough history of the Northern Pack.
They originated in Northern Europe. The pack would wax and wane over time but at a time of distress – the Black Plaque (1352)—a medium sized pack of about 50 left the traditional area and headed to England. Once in England the Northern Pack began to grow a bit larger (especially if your dropping five pups at a time) Eventually, they were persecuted to near extinction by humans. This was when Britta was born (enhance the name-- 1514) Eventually those surviving Lycan continued to move west eventually making it to the New World. Once landing on the east coast of North America, they discovered no other Lycan east of the Rockies and claimed it as their own territory. (Eastern Lycan had been on the west side of the Rockies for centuries—but we won’t get into that) Britta is the oldest Lycan – ever. She has seen her pack (children) rise and fall for centuries. She hasn’t forgiven human for their persecution. She also hasn’t lived through a Hashmallim period – although she has heard tales of it and it has frightened her.
So Zsigmond and Elek are ancient terms that were used back in the homeland. I hope that helps a bit.
