Vidomina was also in Might and Magic III, as far as I remember.

I think so too ;)

Of the above, Tyris is currently the best, followed by Orkhin, especially since the names of the orcs are slightly different in Might and Magic V. You're bombing the "real" orcish ones, but here it's not quite the same.

I agree with Dyrman that the name Tyris, due to its 99% similarity to Iris, is not suitable, so let's stick with Orkhin, as there is nothing phonetically similar in Might and Magic V, and it's an orcish name anyway, even if the letter "Й" was lost due to a dialectal aspect; this happens all the time in world history ;)

Otherwise, we'll end up with female mage names that sound like Ora and Nura. And the fact that they could have names with an Eastern influence is out of the question.

That's right, especially since, for me personally, the "Academy" faction is primarily based on mythology from India, Persia (Iran), the Middle East (Semitic mythology: Sumerians, Arabs, and Israelis), and partly Greece, as it's difficult to definitively assign golems to any one of these, as something similar existed in the mythology of almost all of them ...

It's like with Drago - you can draw a lot of names from the Biblical-Catholic concept of names, but how does that fit into the concept of Elrath? Let's give the knight the name Judas, or Isaac, Mark, etc.

Well, the name Mark is already transnational, but Iona really grates on me :smile32:

Here's another option for renaming Iona: Halima, Leila, Munira, Salima, Zukhra, Zakhra, Amina

There's also Farid in this faction, and you can easily turn him into a female mage, Farida, and that's it ;)

And the name Drago is just awful, it's stupid... it's better to call this hero Mark than Drago :smile17:
