Name for Jinro 人狼 (Wolf-boy)
Added 2025-06-03 04:15:03 +0000 UTCHello everyone! I have a few more renders of our newish character known variously as Wolf-boy or Jinro 人狼. Those are taking a minute, but should be done tomorrow.
Well, he needs a name and so drop any suggestions in the comments or PM me and we'll have a vote as well!

His language is tonal, and some of the tones in his name are higher than the range of human hearing. Therefore, the best approximation I can suggest is Rocorro. The R is pronounced like the French, but even more guttural, lower in the throat, almost a growl: rrrrrrro corrrrrrr rrrrrrro. You see why he was given the simpler nickname Jinro.
