I need your help. I'm quite pathetically unable to choose a name for Willow and Haldir's son. Here are the three propositions I narrowed it to. There are two names each time, because I simply can't see Haldir accepting not to give him an Elvish name, but an Elvish name is not quite the easiest way to go through society. So each time I picked an "English" name that sounded close to the original and that the kid would use to make his life easier.

Now, while I can't quite divulge the plot to you all, do bear in mind while voting that 1) knowing his parents, they'll both pay attention to what his name means, and 2) the kid is not going to be any kid. He'll have a bit of his mum, a bit of his dad, and he'll hopefully kick some arse. If he doesn't, the world is quite simply doomed.

Difficult choice.
I'm not fond of "Collion", but the "golden red one" thing could hint to both his parents, and since you want him to kick some arse, "victory of the people" sounded good.

I liked better how the third one sound, but... Gael? The first thing that would come to mind is NOT "Hey, it's an elvish name". Or, well, it wouldn't do that to us French people.
So I picked choice #2.

I was about to vote for Cillen-Cillian at first because I like the something-ian names, but then I continued reading your post to the end and then you speak of the name meaning, so OK, I did a reason vote and it went to the same result, I voted Cillen-Cillian.
So, now I know what to do with my people of the Summers house in the Sims. I was bored of them. Now all I have to do is to introduce an elf in the neighborhood, make him marry Willow and buy them a kid (yeah, it's way too long to have one the normal way or wait for the adoption services to call, so I downloaded the 600§ baby :D )

Cillian makes me think of beer, as Killian is the name of a beer here in the States, and possibly Ireland. Gael reminds me of Gaul, and it's a little femmy for a guy. Collion/Collin is the best of the three, I too like the 'golden red one' and 'victory of the people' and I have always liked the name Colin, but only 1 L is my preference.

Can't wait for this story, chérie!
