I'm writing this book, and I'm totally stuck on names for a werewolf.

Oh... there are so many... Check out the link below.

http://www.behindthename.com/php/search.php?terms=wolf&nmd=m&gender=both&operator=

If this link doesn't work directly, then go to www.behindthename.com and search for names. Click the dot that says "search for words in meanings", then type "wolf" into the field. It will give you all sorts of names from all over the world that mean "wolf" or "little wolf" or "brave wolf" etc. Click on the name to get more information on it such as origin, language, background, related names, different forms of the name, etc.

Best wishes... T.

I think wolk is "lupus" in Latin? But JK Rowling already cornered the market on that one....her professor in the Harry Potter book, Remus Lupin, turns into a werewolf. His last name is a nod to the Latin term for wolf and his first to mythology where the twins Romulus and Remus were raised by a she-wolf.

Good luck!

Try researching names from the country that the book is set in. Werewolves can have any name.

I suggest Fluffy, Raggy, Zippo or Old Faithful.

*Seriously*, werewolfs are supposed to be half man, half wolf, so I assume they have ordinary names like Steve, John and Kevin. Had no idea they used aliases when they're in drag.

I've put some supposed pronunciations (the way they sounded in my head), and my reasonings beside some of them.

Sonol
Garouque (gah-roo-k) Like Loup Garou (Fr. for "werewolf")
Ban'warash (bahn-wahr-ash)
Vesee (veh-say)
Hattur (ha-tour)
Tanril
Adrod
Loph (loaf) made me think of "lope"
Torinn (toh-rin) kind of like "torn"
Ruind (ruined)
Reyunrd (kind of like reynard)
Lyk (lick) heh...
Cergh (surge)
Strak
Mault
Cail (kale)
Lir
Sihenir (see-hen-ir)
Rodic
Wolun (woh-loon)
Worun (woh-run)
Maluard (mal-oo-ard)

Okay, I'm burnt out making up names. Hope some of those get your "creative juices" flowing. I tried to make them sound old, and have a kind of "edge" to them. But that's just me.
