Character Names

[kasihya]

I am fed up with all of these stupid names that I have created. I like the names of the main characters. After that, it gets extremely debatable. So I decided that I am going to go the route of picking an ethnic background and pulling all of the names from there. Not the most imaginative way to do it, but I really like the way Welsh sounds. I'm hesitant, but only because the two characters who started this whole endeavor, Tsuya and Nyali, will also have to change their names, and I don't know if that's quite fair to them.

I tried to pick names that sounded, to me, like the character. In the case of a lot of Tanwen's family, that has nothing to do with their current name, which were all smushed together out of Gaelic words and then muddled with some more.
