blah... mine is so lame... heh

an old Anime i used to watch, i was OBSESSED with the one character Inouva... and towards the end of the first season, its revealed that hes actually a giant White Wolf that was transformed into a humanoid so that he could carry a sword to defend his master... and being that my Fursona is a wolf, it just seemed logical that that should be his first name. His last name is Wulf, for well... obviously reasons ;)

Morticia's name is derived from the Addams Family (as if that wasn't obvious. xD) which I've always rather enjoyed-- but the real meaning was that it was a nickname of mine for a short while given to me by my baby cousin. He was only-- I think three at the time, and there was that MnMs commercial with all of the characters at Halloween time and he had pointed to the screen at Morticia and said "Emilee, Emilee!" Which is my real name. Apparently the way I look and dress correlated with Morticia. (Which it sort of does, I guess. xD) Since then, I've used the name as my fursona's name quite happily. It's the mix of gothic and beauty that perfectly defines Morticia.

The name Hijiku came to me in a dream once in 2005, and I've used it ever since then.

Well, my favorite movie as a kid was the Aristocats. I play piano, so I took the name Birlioz from the little black kitten that played piano in the movie. It's spelled differently, but I like the way I respelled it.

DeLou. Well, after reading the Anne Rice vampire series (It's absolutely nothing like Twilight. It's a beautiful, very victorian-renaissance-like vampire story) I learned that I loved things with "De" in front of the names and such. One of my favorite characters was Lestat De Lioncourt, and my favorite part was the "De L.." So I mixed it with my most favorite character from the book, Louis. So, DeLou.

Birlioz Delou.

Well I'm not too good at story telling so I'll keep it short.

Years ago I used to day dream.... a lot. I was a pretty hardcore sci-fi fan too (still am) and would day dream about anything with space ships in it.
Basically I wanted a unique name for the captain of the flagship 'Europa' (loooooong story, never written down). Now I really love names beginning with z and I liked the name Zephyr, but it tends to be a female name and is not totally unique.

So I changed the y to an r and the r to a i ( took a bit of experimenting to get the right combo) which made Zephri.
Zephri was pretty much me but with far more self confidence and was far better with words than I am, not to mention stronger faster smarter and more agile (pretty much everything I'm not).

Oh he was also a cyborg to and could body swap with other 'spare' bodies if the first one was destroyed and some of these bodies were anthropomorphic cats.

So that's the back story to this name, kind of corny I know but it kept me entertained when bored and at school.
I use it for all of my aliases so chances are if you see the name Zephri while browsing google it'll prolly be me (most of the times, it's not 100% unique) I also use it for my email and aim/yim.

I had a lot of trouble choosing, but I decided finally on Sindiris (Sin-deer-iss),  Sindi (Sin-dee) for short.  I use the name for just about every online avatar i've every used.

I got that name from my original avatar name, Miridis (Meer-id-iss).  I got tired of it so I tweaked it for a Blood Elf I made on WoW one day so it would sound more diabolical or something.

Anyway, I like it so I stuck with it... Sindiris the Serval. 

There you go!  :P

I have a new secondary fursona, so I guess I'll say something about hers now.

Riley(It can be used for a girl, don't flip out :P) used to be the name of my old persona (human), who was pretty much an insane version of myself. She was a character in a story I scrapped because I felt I couldn't do anything very original and interesting with it.
My new fursona is not the same as that character, I just liked and wanted to reuse the name Riley. :3
And her last name, Latiri, is simply a warped version of "Laterale", the second part of her species's scientific name.

Raphial Marshall McDuffy

Well, when I was little, I kinda just through the "Raphial" together. Marshall is a part of my name, and McDuffy is a play off of McDuffie which is a popular name in my family.

I came up with the name Crazy Cat because I couldn't come up with anything better at the time.

Gabag was the most unassuming name for a psychopath pyromaniac who also was a gun aficionado.

Also its the same spelt forwards and backwards

and capital letters are the exact same as their lower case ones, just bigger, so shut up
