I was going to mention that one myself, too. Just rolls right off the tongue. Delicious. *NM* lord-of-shadow Send a noteboard - 20/09/2010 06:13:10 AM
Also, as temeraire mentioned, Iain [M] Banks has some pretty good names, especially for spaceships in his Culture novels. Examples include Very Little Gravitas Indeed and Ravished By The Sheer Implausibility Of That Last Statement.

I like that the older beings in Malazan have varying names (e.g. Anomandaris Purake). *NM* Ghavrel - 20/09/2010 02:20:15 AM 415 Views
