#name generating.

This is probably important to figure out, what type of world will I be using? I’ve got this urge to take everything I’ve ever wanted in a world and throw it all into this one, but something tells me that’s a bad idea. So i’m going to take a page out of Brandon Sanderson’s books (Oh my gosh that man is amazing Seriously check out Skyward: boy and his dragon type story, but with a girl and her spaceship) and have a multiverse, but with a few potential characters that bounce around. (And never really the same name).

Okay, so we got a universe; now for our world. I like medieval clothing and styles, and the practicality of modern outfits, so I think I’m going to go with a world similar to almost every “transported to another world ooh magic” anime out there (Looking at you, In another world with my smartphone, and That time I got Reincarnated as a Slime) This means tunics that are very similar to shirts, pants are totally a thing here, Women, wear what you want, could be bikini armor for all I care, magic, oh my gosh yes and that’s a whole other post, leather harnesses, spandex is somehow a thing as well, and silk. I have recently discovered the joys of silk. Cool and warm. yes please. Guns....let’s say flintlock’s are a thing, and revolvers will show up soonish.

Now for what we’ll call it. I’m going to try to use that one tactic of writing down what it is, and then taking out vowels and stuff and replacing others.

Adventurer World, adventurerworld, aventuerwurld, Avenwurld, Avenwurd, Avenward. Yeah, let’s go with that; Avenward. We can have lovely plot bunnies in the form of What’s/where’s Aven, and why are we going there. Of course, each race will likely use a slightly different name-- Actually. Hmm....

Question time! Did other cultures IRL have a different name of Earth other than...well...Earth? I’m guessing it came out of the word for dirt and ground, but when did it get applied to the Planet, and when/why did everyone accept that?
