carrigerpigeon: sonneillonv: carrigerpigeon: ‘Ulf’ derives from the Old Norse word
carrigerpigeon:sonneillonv:carrigerpigeon:‘Ulf’ derives from the Old Norse word for “wolf” (úlfr). Saldalius is Latin for “true wolf”.So we’ve literally got Mr. Wolf Wolf from Messrs. Wolf, Wolf, Wrendofflip, and Wolf fighting Randolph Lyall, whose first name derives from the Old Norse “Rannúlfr” which literally breaks down to shield + wolf, and his last name “Lyall” also means wolf. So basically the fight in Blameless was Professor Wolf Wolf vs. Mr. Wolf Wolf and Professor Wolf Wolf only won because his Alpha, Lord Wolf Wolf of Woolsey (Conall meaning strong wolf and Maccon meaning son of a wolf), came to fuck Mr. Wolf Wolf’s shit up in a drunken backyard brawl. Gail Carriger, everybody. This is just a blatant attempt to outdo JK RowlingIt gets better. Pretty much all the other werewolf characters in that series have Wolf Wolf names, too. Major Wolf Wolf of the Chesterfield Wolves (Channing means Wolf)Noble Wolf Bluebutton (Adelphus is a variant Old German ‘Adalwolf’)Hemming: derived from hamr “shape”, and possibly originally a nickname for a person believed to be a shape changer.Phelan: anglicization of an Irish surname for “wolf" Rafe: English name meaning “Shield wolfUlric: Middle English form of the Old English name Wulfric meaning “wolf power”Jury is out on Quinn and Riehard, but I think Riehard is a pseudonym anyway, and his last name has the word bark in it, so let’s be realZev: Zariation for the Hebrew for WolfSandalio de Rabiffano: Sandalio is the latinized form of the Gothic name Sandulf which meant “true wolf”and NOT PICTURED, werewolves Sidheag Maccon and Vulkasin Woolsey, whose full names both also mean Wolf Wolf. -- source link
