It's from here.
I used to be a Baha'i longer than I was with any organized faith. But I left the faith due to slight differences in opinion. I still strongly respect and admire them and agree with MOST of their beliefs. Let's say... 90%

I'd like to contribute but good names tend to find me, trailing their concepts, rather than the other way round.

I come up with names and concepts far more often that I could ever create new toons (much less play them to even 20th :P), but I'm in the habit now of writing them down and saving them for characters in my MA arcs. I've often thought about scouring my note books and just tossing them all off on some thread though...

Ok, I'm having trouble thinking of a name for this character, so I'm hoping that someone here can help.

AT is an Invulnerability/Battle Axe Tanker (secondary may end up as either War Mace or Super Strength instead).

The basic concept is a power armored catgirl (so Tech origin) from an alternate dimension where **** sapiens never evolved and felis sapiens is the dominant life form.

I generally prefer to have my characters name be a real name (i.e. a first name and a surname) rather than a code name and I'd prefer to stick with that although I think for this character the surname will be more of an extended clan name than a surname in the regular sense.

Here's a picture of the costumes I'm planning to use both in and out of armor (the power armor is actually a male body since I don't like the female armored body in part because it always seems to give you a bullet trap in your center of mass):

Oh, server is Virtue just in case you didn't guess

EDIT: Sigh, I should've guessed it would censor the species name for humanity

OK, I can't come up with the "clan name", but adapting a friend's SCA persona name, I just tried "Lyonnette" on Virtue.

How about:

Ash Leonid? (Sounds like Ashley Onid).... Hmmm, maybe Ashley Onid. That last one would be a bit like a hidden meaning if you are one to enjoy those. Unfortunately, I don't have the availability to check them at this moment, but I can't imagine they are both taken.

I do like double meanings, but I cannot figure out this one. Could you elaborate please?

I need a one-word adjective that describes someone who fights crime using a baseball bat (axe) and a manhole cover (shield). It will be used in the form <Adjective> Leo. For example, my other characters are Doctor Leo, Archer Leo, Radioactive Leo, Slicer Leo (claws scrapper)... I just can't think of a single word adjective that describes "beats up things with a baseball bat and blocks attacks with a manhole cover".
Louisville Leo?

Edit: Darn... Nuclear Toast beat me to it!

I spelled it right out in the post you quoted... perhaps you misunderstood that there was something else to it besides the dual-pronunciation. There isn't, I'm not that goood.

Indeed, I was figuring some really subtle reference in the name, thanks
