I have some questions about naming ocs within the Pandora (Avatar) Universe
With Ikran it seems to be names with meanings derived from nature/appearance as "Seze" means "blue flower" so I have comfortably been able to name my Ikran ocs
But I'm struggling when it comes to Na'vi
Some film character names seem to have meanings derived/constructed from multiple Na'vi words, and other names like Lo'ak don't seem to have a specific meaning at all
So how are people going about naming their Na'vi ocs? And are there websites that help with meanings (besides reykunyu.lu)
Learning the phonetics of a sorta conlang to make sure you didnât create a phonetically impossible to pronounce name is such a weird experience, wdym the names Kuâivam and Tsketäayl would be causing me this much trouble. Not to mention because of that apostrophe in Kuâivam I think it has a different pronunciation than what I believe it to me, but Iâm not really sure because I donât know how they affect Naâvi pronunciation. I donât speak a phonetic language, I donât even know phonics

Translation notes:
RDA -> Artiey, a phonetic spelling of it
"the mark" -> "the sign"
Translated "poor child" as "parultsyĂŹp," a term of affection for children - literally "little miracle," which seems fitting for a child that was stolen away and miraculously returned fifteen years later
Translated "burdens" as "pains"

Apparently TikTok is now in the Na'vi dictionary. /hj
Na'vi: tĂŹktok (substantive (noun)) | English: absence
The real benefits of learning a conlang: being able to go out in the yard and yell âTAKE ME WITH YOUâ to the windstorm blowing through without having to worry about your neighbors wondering about it because the chances of them understanding Naâvi are infinitesimal
Reasons Naâvi is the superior language compared to English:
consistent grammar
clusivity (differentiates between âwe (including you)â and âwe (but not you)â
everybody uses the same gender-neutral pronouns and the language largely does not care about gender
mostly doesnât use the same word for a dozen different meanings like English has a habit of
consistent grammar
has specific words for âthe day before yesterdayâ and âthe day after tomorrowâ instead of needing a whole phrase
built-in tone indicators
multiple forms of plurality to clarify âwe (you and me)â versus âwe (the group of us)â
consistent grammar
glottal stops and ejectives are fun to say
