I need a Female Elf name?

Question

I was hoping if you kind people would help me find a nice elf name for a female character. Preferrably starting with an "A" or "Y". I have a few but i'd still liek to hear a few more. Haven't had much luck on the internet.

Wow, this is reallllly helpful, thanks a lot guys:P:)

Answer 1

Is this for a fictional character, a role playing game character or are you actually planning to have an elven child?

My ex-wife and I named our daughter "Ilana", a Hebrew name that means "tree". You might spell it, "Ylana"; I'm sure my daughter wouldn't mind.

It's not one of the initials you specified, but I once had a half-elven AD &D character whom I named "Wynlief". The name means "fond of pleasure" or "pleasure-loving." He was male, but the name would do as well for a female elf, I think.

Then there's the possibility of Yseult. An old Gallo-celtic name meaning unknown (by me that is). You may remember the name from La Morte D'Arthur or from Wagner's opera, in which it is spelled "Isolde"'; the opera, "Tristan und Isolde" is, of course in German.

If it were me, I would make something up, such as Yavallie or Anandalinde or even Auramakua if you want a more exotic sound. The last is Hawaiian and is a technical term from Huna, the traditional Hawaiian magickal form. Or from Irish, there's the lovely Aoife, pronounced "weefah".

I hope one of these will work for you or suggest an idea of your own.

Best of luck with the story, the game or the baby.

Answer 4

Back in the day when I was a Dragon Quest nutter my favourite character was a gelfling named Canna - she was awsome! Also my daughter wrote a story a couple of years back and called herself "Little Fidgit" in it which I aways thought was cute (is a fairy name though, not an elf). I like Ari, is simple but sweet

Answer 5

How about Arwen, Nolwenn, Neelah? I always thought those would be cool as elf names. Actually, the first one IS. But the others I come up with myself.
