Hi all. I was thinking - I really like my nick, but it''s also rather common. Can people suggest translations of it? I want to see how it looks (and sounds) in other languages. Regards, WhiteWolf
reminds me of some clanish name...

In Japanese you could have Byakuya Okami. Byakuya meaning white/arctic and Okami meaning wolf.

Thats how I chose my nickname Kazan means volcano, but the kanji are Fire and Mountain. Byakuya Okami has three kanji: White, night and wolf.

(BTW it''s pronounced Byah-Kuu-yah Oh-kah-mi)

Hi

''WhiteWolf'' would be something like ''HvidUlv'' in danish. But to get something really exotic you should try a name with one of the three danish special chars in it: ''æ'',''ø'' and ''å''. Like ''Harald Blåtand'' (BlueThooth in english).

In French: loup blanc
(loup is wolf, blanc is white)

In Latin: lupus niveus
(lupus is wolf, niveus is white or snowy)

In swedish you nick would be ''vit varg'', ''vit'' = ''white'' and ''varg'' = ''wolf''

If I''m not mistaken:

white = bianco (Italian) = blanco (Spanish) = branco (Portguese)

wolf = lupo (Italian) = lobo (Spanish and Portuguese)

I might be wrong with these ones though.

hmm, in tiberian we call it "WW"

You could search for obscure translators.

In German:
White=Weiss, or Weiß (ß=ss)
Wolf=Wolf
In german, and many other languages, W''s are pronounced like V''s.

In Russian it''s Áåëûé Âîëê (You need a cyrillic font to see this)

You can search for online translators.

Greek: Άσπρα ροΰχα(white) Λΰκοσ(wolf)
Swahili: eupe (white) jibwa (dog, sorry no wolf)
Zulu: lungu, or, mhlophe (white) pisi (wolf)
Latin: albus (white) (sorry, my translator can''t find wolf, dog or wild beast in latin)

the translator I used was at
