Hi,

Yet another "Help me for a name" thread, I'm really sorry.

My hero is a Swedish young man who gained his powers during an avalanche. He escaped with death by miracle and developped supernatural powers based on ice, snow and cold.

I imagined and drawn aside traditional names like Ice, Snow, Cold, and their derivatives in -man, -boy, super-, hyper-, etc.

Any ideas for a name, knowing that I have a preference for a Scandinavian or German name (my campaign will take in Berlin) ?

Thanks.

Oh, by the way, the translations above came from:

http://dictionaries.travlang.com/

They have English to _______ dictionaries for quite a few languages.

You may try things like Blizzard, Snowstorm, Snowblind, etc. translated into some other languages.

Thanks for the link, I didn't know this website.
They have also French > _______ dictionaries which will be very useful for me.

I don't doubt that I'll find a perfect for my hero with that.
I already found "Kall", the swedish word for cold, I like it.


Thanks again.

Very glad to help.
In my rush to find something for you I completely missed the fact that you were French.
Since that site can go straight from French to the language you are interested in, it should help a lot.

Happy to be of service,

:)
