Don't come to forums (especially guru forums) and ask for any advice lol you'll either get trolled or you'll get bad builds.

Most scientific names use 2 words. Sylvari's names have only 1 word. (cept for titles and such)

I was watching some videos today...I saw NPC sylvari with two names, and NPC Charr named outside the usual Charr naming convention, as well....so, although the races usually follow a certain rule, or rules, it is not outside the realm of possibility to see some unusual names for each race

I think Sylvari names are similar to traditional Irish or Scottish names, os what i did was i looked up scottish baby names for girls they had some really good ones.

Sylvari may not be elven per se, but they are elf-like, so I've used Elven Names to name my characters.

Here are two helpful sites for Elven Names:
http://www.angelfire...adow/names.html
^ can randomly generate your own, or can pick and choose meanings (Ctrl-F works well for this)
http://www.arwen-und.../girlnames.html
^ can also choose meanings (Ctrl-F) or can translate your real name or names that you like

This is absolutely random, which I do not like as I prefer names with meaning, but which you may be open to or can use as examples of typical naming conventions: http://www.rdinn.com...e_generator.php
