Domain Names

[benlehman]

So I've been thinking about getting a personal domain name...



Almost certainly a .net I'm not a non-profit, nor will I be selling stuff out of this domain.

the contenders are, sorted by category:

My interest in myth:
mythopoeisis.net (see Rich's comments in my last post)
xenomythology.net
xenomysticism.net

Favorite gods:
ninshubar.net (you know... uh... well... maybe you don't. Google it.)
quetzlcoatl.net

my name:
leibingxian.net
benlehman.net

references to stories:
abli.net / aibli.net
swift-quiet.net
daiethion.net
13thschool.net
tulgeyhill.net

Thoughts?

You know you've run too many Aztec-themed LARPs when "quetzlcoatl" is easy to spell.

P.S. How many is too many? Hmm...

I always phrased this as "you know you've run too many Aztec-themed LARPS when you have pet names for the Aztec gods".

Between Quetzl, Tezcat, Xipe, and Tlazl I think I can safely say that this makes One, one too many. :)

You forget Huitzil. Or, as his friends call him, Pochtli.

I think that, of these, Tezcat is the best. Because it implies that he is a type of cat. Which he is.

Ah, false cognates.

True, but Quetzl sounds a bit like Pretzel, which while not apropriate is at least funny.

Hey, _I_ use "Tezcat" and "Xipe," and I've never even participated in an Aztec-themed _anything_. I prefer the cute and diminuative form "Huitzi" (often rhymes with "tweetsy") for everybody's favorite heart-eating god of war, though. Tlaloc gets the shaft, since he already has a short name. "Hey, Tlal? Get over here and bleed some rain!"

I'm fairly sure that I've seen email addresses from tezcat .com and .net , unfortunately.

Of the lot, I like ninshubar.net best. I've got a big weakness for Near Eastern stuff.
