Hey there everyone!

 

I'm just now somewhat stepping into the community, after over a decade of self-imposed seclusion, until I finished the series. My dad named me for Rand, and I finished the series for the first time during that special eclipse we had back in August! Was a nice way to close out the series that had, and continues to have, such a strange (but welcome) impact on my life. I'm just short of my 21st nameday yet, so I suppose I have a little while to fulfill any prophecies.

 

Are there any other WoT-named people out there? Sometimes I wonder if I'm among the older ones, and I've yet to actually meet one. Anyways, I really look forward to joining the community, finally. Been resisting the urge to re-start the series, currently using Stormlight Archive as a crutch. 

 

I can't wait to get to know everyone here!

Welcome to DM, Just Rand

 

Not sure about having other WoT named people here but then I don't know everybody XD

 

What is Stormlight Archive  ?

Welcome Just Rand!! No such luck for me, but there are a few that have named their children after their favourite characters. They will most likely introduce themselves when they see this thread.

welcome just rand!

a year?before a memory of light was released,a couple named their newborn

daughter nynaeve,they even posted her photo in mashiara's 'wot if' blog,

so she's about 6 now?

You're the first person I've ever "met" who's named after someone from any of the fantasy stories I've read! It's freaky in an awesome way *grins*

 

Welcome to DM, btw :)

I plan to change my name later in life. Maybe.

That's really cool!  It's a nice change from other fantasy names you see everywhere like Khaleesi!

What is?

Welcome Rand!

 

I know someone here who gave her daughter the middle name of Moiraine and another who was naming her daughter Aviendha.
