I started going over the early lessons trying to find out how you would use
names in conjunction with nouns. for example “alfr” means "an Elf" I'm
trying to create Character names in a book for a race of alien beings that
formed the factual basis for legends about Elves and I'm gfiving them Norse
names. The very first Elf in history is called "Alfr" but I'm having trouble
figuring out how to say "Elf" when "Alfr" means "An Elf" second, his first
son has his name, but what to call his first daughter? I wanted to use the
word for "Girl" but I couldn't find an English to norse dictionary that would
tell me how to decline the word for use as a proper name rather than a word
that means "A girl" Can anyone help me, since english-Norse dictionaries seem
to be a bit scarce?
