Hooky...Now you can just put "Formendacil" as the slogan, and everyone will know what you're talking about. And at least Formy will think it's hilarious.
And congratulations to all the new Personally Titled! May you have many happy days thinking about them.

It may have been years ago, I can still remember what it was like to get my own PT.
It feels special to finally be chosen. (Please tell me I wasn't the only one jumping up and down and screaming for joy ) Congrats everyone. I'm enjoying reading all these new titles.

Of course you can never abandon your froggie avatar now Congratulations.
Is Meela's new or just something we have all known for a long time? Really can't wait to see what Ang has chosen - I can't imagine he hasn't been included in this batch.... of course to a Fenris Wolf such as myself he is THE Fenris Wolf - eldest of our order.....

Thanks, Mith and Lhuna. Credit must also go to Elempi, who played a crucial role in convincing me to follow my amphibious tendencies.

If our beloved Barrow-Wight would see the deletion of my personal title as a possibility, I'd have nothing against you taking it in my stead some day. I've developed somewhat of a distaste for labelling myself. 'Untitled' seems the best title I can think of anymore.

Because it is one of my all-time faves.
Not that I have anything against Rune , but it just wouldn't be the same if it belonged to someone else. :/ |

Haha! Nice coincidence ninja, as I read through this list this morning I thought the same thing.

While looking over Brin's nice list there I'm reminded of how much I like Mister Underhill's "Dread Horseman."

For myself, when I daydreamed of what I would choose, I knew I wanted a quotation since I was a literature student and my screen name does not lend itself to some of the superb puns that some people have and I did not have the wit to think of someof the ones that reference Tolkien like "Drummer in the Deep" or "Alive without breath" which is just so perfect for a wight!!! I did want a supernatural element too so I ended up with short list of 3 one of which was taken (and it is much more appropriate for it's holder). So it was either Pilgrim Soul or Bewildering Ghost. The latter more accurate, the former more aspirational. I could almost translate Pilgrim soul into Elvish but didn't incase it wasn't an accurate translation. Pretentious and ungrammatical is a bad combination..... I try to limit myself to one or the other at any given time..... So basically, try to find something that means something to you, or amuses you and which you live with for the rest of your death (in a manner of speaking).

Ah. I should go find that said Personal Title thread and do it there. I just didn't know where I could get some help. I'm occasionally bad at making decisions like this.
Thanks, Glirdan. -- Folwren

Oh, oh, oh! I would ask everyone to please not suggest any more titles for me - please! But, Gil, I have to thank you for inspiring something beautiful. I've thought of something that I shall turn over in my head as carefully as the first two I had already thought of.
