#additional zeldas

if you got links you gotta have zeldas usually so here's ideas (epithet ideas sort of taken from @/pluviatrix but i think others had ideas too i just can't find them.)

Tri, Tre, Trois, Cly, Apri: Same era as Legend, so Fable. Also have Princess Styla

Rhythm, Skid, Yves, Trill: Tempo, or Zelda Aria

Shields: i mean going with the idea that the names should be parallels or counterparts or w/e... Spear? like the idea of "shield that can't be pierced" and "spear that can piece anything", they're opposites and do not get along that much. Alternatively Zelda Skjálf (one of Freyja's titles because she deserves it <3)(fun fact: i think the first time i heard about the shield and spear thing was in pokemon. i dunno what that says about me other than i watch "Ancient Family Matters" too much.)

Spoons: Same era as Hyrule, so Aurora and Dawn

Koridai: Gamelon, or Zelda Minerva

Peter Pancho III: peter pancho iii feels like he'd be pretty disconnected with any royal family business. like he's still the hero! just. not one that sticks around for long after his work is done. he's from the era of prosperity and really he's not that well known. anyway my thoughts are Gwendolyn, or Zelda Aiónia (yes it's just modern Greek for "evermore" because she's the first Zelda to be part of the "gotta name the princess "Zelda"" tradition. still connected to peter if you mess with her nickname)

Rus: Same era as Twilight (obviously), so Dusk

Holpar: okay so Holpar's named for a roadrunner (specifically from the chaparral birds nickname; can fly but usually doesn't), and it's not too long since the surface was established so like. bird-adjacent names are still the norm. genuinely my first thought was a penguin-themed name. my second thought was a chicken joke. Sakar, because i'd do a Peregrine Falcon name but that's Holpar's dark world form, whoops. No epithet this is just straight-up her name. it is also straight-up the name of the bird but if we can have Dot then this is fine.

Spirits: Phantom, or Zelda Herma. not that's she's particularly fond of the nickname. Zeli is only for Spirits to use.

Landon: N/A; there's just straight-up no Zelda in Nintendo Land.
