CoCo= Random

Coleo on the other hand is the first two letter's from CoCo and the first three letter's from Leogon7 (The Co-founder) and thus being 'Co-Leo', I have Leogon7 to thank for the name  ^_^

josh down is a bit of a mystery to be honest .  i remember creating the lion character in my head and randomly picking out a name from my school register, but then i have no idea where the down bit came from. it just kinda happened somehow. i would like to know.

if i was to make another character that i identified with (i have an idea in my head for one) his name would be Shwari which means "Quiet" or "Serene" in swahili. either that or just flat out call him Serene
The further on I go, all the less i know.
I can't find...

Mine came from when I used to play WoW, once I heard Death Knights were coming out I tried to use all the fitting names I could think of, then looked in an old dictionary and found Arrant meaning infamous; vile, etc, used it, eventually it stuck.

Well... I chose Felis, since it's a nice easily recognisable cat name, but the Harlequin came out of a twisted sense of irony...

My great...great.. ... Okay I'm not sure how far back - the family tree is my mother's hobby, not mine - grandfather was a nice Italian bloke by the name of Joseph Grimaldi. Also known as Joey the Clown. The first clown, in fact. And it was his style of entertainment that pretty much killed the Harlequins off as a profession.

Also, Harlequin sounds slightly cooler than Clownblood.

you don't even need to walk past them. children just have nightmares with the knowledge that you exist... even without the knowledge that you exist, they have nightmares about the possibility of your existence. *nods*  B)
