Team Voruna All the Way!

Lycanth is kinda bland, that's like calling Hydroid Octo or Gauss Fauss

[(XBOX)Vindicator30]

No Wolfy McWolface? 😥😭

[CapnRis]

On one hand, Voruna, Raksha and Nashoba are all lovely. On the other, it's hard not to pick one of the names that start with letters not yet represented (D, J, Q and U, unless Umbra counts). 

[Buff00n]

Could use some explanations of the names, IIRC most of the submissions came with some kind of story or meaning behind them.

[(PSN)DemonicSprite]

I swear....no imagination, Lycath?.... If that wins it's going into helminth and staying there....
Also...the wolf frame is too much of a copy of the digimon Plutomon... hope they dont get in trouble for that one.

[Kagami2141]

Why not call her Camilla?

[(PSN)Poestis]

I just hope everyone votes for the names starting with D or U because there are no Warframes starting with those letters... With the exception of Umbra Excalibur but that really doesn't count.

For those who don't know,

"Ylva" is a Swedish female given name that means she-wolf or female wolf.

Its a girl tho

[(XBOX)Cr0w365]

Voruna is literally so tough sounding. I could be wrong but it could be taking inspiration from Varuna, "God of the night sky who with his thousands of eyes watches humanity. Judging good and evil while punishing the evil doers" THATS TOOOOOUUGHH

[(PSN)Gorubsa]

We missing Warframe's names starting with the letters J, Q and U. I am voting Ulfra.

[DYba4]

It was hard to pick between Raksha, Dynara, Ghella and Voruna, but I picked Dynara because then she would be the first warframe whose name starts with the letter D.

 

Also, was Fengarou inspired by the Garo anime?

[Gamelias]

These are all really bad names (as in the choices are bad. I'm aware of the real world inspirations) for a wolf inspired frame. Feels like y'all dropped the ball here. There was definitely a better pool we could have chosen from.

Raksha (Hindi "Demon transforms into "beautiful" woman") fits really well; Lupa (Lupine Wolf) would have been my suggestion too.

Raksha feels more befitting as a name of a desi/hindi themed deluxe for her or a more Hindi looking frame

[LuckyCharm]

I didnt see Furry McFurface on the list so clearly couldnt have been a community vote. I require a redo

Is "Hydroid" not already super on-the-nose...?

Can you tell me which frame is using a Native American name right now?

Yareli, potentially. There's three conflicting origins for the name but DE claims they based it on the Native American one.

Somehow, the best name is not there.

Voruna reminds me too much of Fortuna 😂

Isn’t there a weapon with the name Amarok, or one close to?

I googled it, and the most warframe thing to come up was a Fan-concept for a Beast/Hunter Frame.

I can't think of any weapons with slight changes but Nataruk is kind of close and in my head.  But that name might be a reference to Natah or/and the region of the same name (Nataruk).

Lycath sounds kinda lame tbh

Yeah, agreed. It sounds like such a lazy name because of the direction nod to "lycan" or "lycanthropy" which really spoils the name for me. Lycaon, the King of Arcadia who was cursed to become a werewolf, would've been a much cooler name and a nod to one of the origins of werewolves and lycanthropy.

Not really. Voruna is the name of a huntress goddess for the Slavic/Baltic Pantheon that transforms into either a wolf or bear. they dropped the ball with some of the others *cough* Lycath *cough*

[(PSN)TeamMeunier]

Funny enough I thought of Vivillia (Viv-ill-ya) to inject like a sly and unsuspectingly cunning vibe, and I also liked Shakira from the Devstream. I been plotting names, but Ylva was my favorite with it being a female wolf name of old Swedish origin. Good on you, DE. Can't wait to animate a new 'Frame in a thing I'm doin'!

[(PSN)JVCatzimAl]

Team Raksha of jungle book!!!!!!
