Often times people spell it as Nyn. callandor1000 Send a noteboard - 18/12/2009 07:23:36 AM
The Dark One has several names that he's very commonly referred to as. Nynaeve on the other hand I guess could be referred to as Wisdom... though, that would be silly, since she's no longer the wisdom and is very seldom referred to as the Wisdom since tGH. Therefore, we're more or less stuck trying to spell Nynaeve where as we don't have to worry about that in the case of the Dark One. You get my drift?

Your mom. That's right. The cat is out of the bag. Your mom.

My mind isn't always in the gutter, it just has VIP access

Many are intimidated by the spelling, I would assume. *NM* callandor1000 - 17/12/2009 06:57:44 PM 419 Views
To that I give you "Nynaeve." *NM* BlackAdder - 17/12/2009 07:01:34 PM 413 Views

The majority of references to him in the book are as "the Dark One", so that's what we use. *NM* Myrdhyn - 17/12/2009 07:00:08 PM 396 Views
Yes. Also, we are very anti-Muslim since 9/11. *NM* Cannoli - 17/12/2009 08:02:38 PM 427 Views
Also a valid point, but how many readers actually know Shaitan is the Islamic name for Satan? *NM* Myrdhyn - 18/12/2009 04:26:04 PM 424 Views
