How do I choose a Klingon name?
(Mark Shoulson, Tue, 10 Sep 1996) A name is a name. It’s what you want to call yourself. From what we’ve seen in Klingon, names do not necessarily mean anything on the surface, they’re just sounds. Just what you’d like to be called. Some people like to make up a name that’s an epithet, that has a meaning. So Will Martin calls himself charghwI’ /conqueror (based on his first name and a reference to William the Conqueror). Alan Anderson calls himself ghunchu’wI’ /perfect programmer. Some people like to transliterate their real names into Klingon orthography (hopefully careful not to break Klingon phonology). Some people like to pick just some random string of sounds they like the sound of (I use Seqram , which is based on my name, Mark S., spelled backwards, but it doesn’t mean anything). It’s what YOU want to be called. Have a blast. ( charghwI’ , Sat, 6 May 95) A name should probably be a single word, rather than several. A name may have a meaning, though it is at LEAST as valid to mak
