ah Thanks! *NM* Sidious Send a noteboard - 17/06/2010 02:12:00 PM
I found this the other day and thought it was really interesting. It doesn't list the meanings of the Forsaken names, but some can be pieced together (like isha means betrayer).

Semirhage is named as "The Lady of Pain" in KoD, by Rand... Shannow - 17/06/2010 11:14:56 AM 1847 Views
You are right... Etzel - 17/06/2010 11:31:05 AM 1412 Views
Do Semirhage & Bel'al actually mean those things or are they other nicknames? Cannoli - 17/06/2010 11:38:18 AM 1270 Views

Gai'shain = those sworn to peace in battle Great Lord of Chaos - 17/06/2010 09:22:02 PM 1147 Views
Gaidin = Brother to Battle ... which is what I think the OP meant to use darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 09:32:20 PM 1083 Views
Presumably he meant "Dai Shan", or "Battle Lord", as he said. Fanatic-Templar - 17/06/2010 10:37:07 PM 1161 Views
or that *NM* darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 10:45:49 PM 665 Views

As always, KOuellette - 20/06/2010 02:25:07 PM 1082 Views
I always thought Lanfear probably translated to something closer to a Moon translation darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 02:43:04 PM 1378 Views
it's the other way around... DomA - 17/06/2010 02:58:33 PM 1140 Views
good point darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 03:13:17 PM 1137 Views
Re: good point DomA - 17/06/2010 04:05:50 PM 1202 Views
Not to mention she STILL hasn't earned a 3rd (or in 4th) name darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 04:16:57 PM 1178 Views
What about Cyndane Sidious - 17/06/2010 04:48:03 PM 1076 Views
It must be her favorite one, since it's the only one she actually earned *NM* darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 05:43:41 PM 595 Views
Well she earned Mierin *NM* Sidious - 17/06/2010 08:27:05 PM 741 Views
how so? I figured mom and dad gave that one too her *NM* darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 08:36:24 PM 621 Views
she earned it by being born... ha! gotcha *NM* Sidious - 17/06/2010 08:39:10 PM 581 Views
HA! But technically I think her mother earned that *NM* darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 08:58:30 PM 511 Views
well she earned Eronaile by virtue of her genetics *NM* Sidious - 17/06/2010 09:04:36 PM 596 Views
Tee hee ... I'd credit her father on that one *NM* darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 09:31:19 PM 640 Views
Re: good point Sidious - 17/06/2010 04:47:01 PM 1196 Views
Again, a self-proclaimed ownership aimed at making her seem more impressive darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 05:55:12 PM 1092 Views
I disagree Etzel - 17/06/2010 06:20:08 PM 1199 Views

The point isn't if Lanfear has the skill, it's that it was poorly shown. darius_sedai - 18/06/2010 05:31:11 PM 1161 Views
I think it's shown well Sidious - 18/06/2010 06:10:55 PM 1282 Views
your own examples show only OP prowess though! darius_sedai - 18/06/2010 06:54:38 PM 1277 Views
How can you say Semirhage didn't achieve anything? Rurouni_Kenshin - 18/06/2010 01:59:44 AM 1223 Views
I'm partial to Sammael myself. Fanatic-Templar - 18/06/2010 02:24:49 AM 1025 Views
The statement makes clear that those 6 were all quite impressive Etzel - 17/06/2010 10:51:49 PM 992 Views
I don't see that bearing out in the text at all darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 10:57:36 PM 1199 Views
Well, with this point I don't disagree.. *NM* Etzel - 17/06/2010 11:10:34 PM 1038 Views

Lanfear's motives were never Shadow-driven FanEditor10 - 20/06/2010 06:47:22 PM 1167 Views
not ballsy, just psycho darius_sedai - 20/06/2010 07:25:46 PM 1181 Views
Like Etzel I don't agree Sidious - 17/06/2010 08:30:37 PM 1062 Views
I think she's a weak villain darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 08:58:01 PM 1032 Views

Perhaps Lan-fear meaning Night-Daughter would make more sense Lordling - 17/06/2010 06:00:35 PM 1131 Views

And Dragon translations... Fanatic-Templar - 17/06/2010 10:53:02 PM 1250 Views
Re: And Dragon translations... darius_sedai - 17/06/2010 11:01:25 PM 1119 Views
Why would they call themselves "Spears of the fictional creature"? Fanatic-Templar - 18/06/2010 12:29:49 AM 1041 Views
It was meant as a joke, but really it could be some generic term rather than meaning darius_sedai - 18/06/2010 06:00:36 AM 1085 Views
Except that they don't know what a 'Dragon' is, except as it relates to Lews Therin/Rand Fanatic-Templar - 18/06/2010 05:11:30 PM 1080 Views
like I said, I was just making a joke of it ... you are quite right with "Rand's Spears" darius_sedai - 18/06/2010 05:32:42 PM 957 Views
But of course the NT word for Dragon isn't Dragon DomA - 18/06/2010 05:45:34 PM 1329 Views
Ah yes, that sounds reasonable. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 18/06/2010 08:28:54 PM 623 Views
If "aman" is the Old Tongue name for Dragon, maybe "DEMANdred" contains a reference to Dragon too... Shannow - 20/06/2010 08:13:35 PM 1358 Views
"Dragon Wannabe" *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 20/06/2010 09:23:09 PM 466 Views
Lizard? *NM* Gher - 20/06/2010 10:04:21 PM 628 Views
"Scaled Worm"... though I doubt he'd take that name up in pride . *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 22/06/2010 01:23:03 AM 560 Views
It's probably too much to attempt to guess at the meanings of words... Fanatic-Templar - 17/06/2010 10:58:06 PM 896 Views
A nice article about the Old Tongue and my ramblings Lordling - 18/06/2010 11:14:24 AM 7327 Views
