pbrand Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 According to UESP wiki, the Khajit dragon god is Alkosh, the "Dragon king of cats." So I'm wondering if these names would be appropriate for my Khajit dragonborn character. I got the name prefixes from UESP too. Ra'Alkosh "Lord-Dragon"J'Alkosh "Young Dragon" = "Dragonborn"?Do'Alkosh "Dragon Warrior"Dar'Alkosh "Clever Dragon"Qa'Alkosh "Hidden Dragon" or "Unknown Dragon"Dro'Alkosh "Grandfather Dragon"M'Alkosh "Young Dragon" a.k.a. "Dragonborn"? Khajit information pages I got this info from: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Khajiit http://www.uesp.net/...e:Khajiit_Names Does anyone know of other Khajit lore pages or information? Any other ideas for naming a Khajit character? I'd especially love to know what the word for "Tiger" is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VoraNoxstella Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 The whole point is that no one knows you're a dragon born. I'm also pretty sure that's a taboo. Most cultures dislike having people named after their gods. How many Akatosh or Talos do you see walking around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are several cultures where people are named after gods, especially ones that believe in multiple gods which is what you have in Skyrim. It was quite common in Ancient Egypt for example. My thinking is that no one would suspect the character is really the dragon born, and how many Nords in the region of Skyrim would know the Khajit language enough to suspect? Maybe his mother or whoever named him knew about his true heritage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VoraNoxstella Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Eh. As to your question, they sound great. I personally wouldn't use them (feels weird, like naming your character "Dovahkiin") but, to to each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natelovesyou Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Well if no one is supposed to know that you're Dragonborn, then I suppose Qa'Alkosh for "Hidden Dragon" or "Unknown Dragon" works. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
