I went out and bought 5 new fish yesterday. And of course, picked absurd names for them all. None of my friends seem to quite appreciate my naming selection, but I figure someone in here might. :-D
Camelopardalis (a constellation)
Ceridwen (Welsh for 'blessed poetry)
Chernobog (From Slavic Mythology meaning 'Black God')
Kreios (Greek for Master)
Brythwch (Which the online welsh dictionaries say means 'storm' but I can only find a few sources and I'm not sure how reliable they are. Does anyone here speak Welsh? :-D )
I was originally going to name them all after one of my fandoms... Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Torchwood.. something. But that seemed so limiting. But I stumbled on Kreios by accident and it seemed like fate to have one in there representing The Doctor from Doctor Who. (The Master is a bad guy on the show, The Doctor is the good guy; in case you don't watch). But I couldn't find any translations of 'Doctor' that sounded good, so I went with 'storm' because in some parts of the universe The Doctor is known as "The Oncoming Storm". :-D [/end geekdom]
It's days like today I realize I need a life. ::eyeroll::
