My Argonian character's name is Drasnir, in out-of-game etymology, it is a combination of the Dutch word "drassig", meaning "swampy", with a suffix "nir" to make it sound like a name. In-game, it is actually a corruption of Dasu-Nir by his father, named Dasu-Nir, who thought very higly of the Nords and wanted a more Nordic-sounding name (though it sounds more like a Dragon name...), Dasu-Nir's father was also called Dasu-Nir, leading all the way back to Dasu-Nir sr. sr. sr. sr. sr., otherwise simply known as "Dasu-Nir, the Hero of Kvatch", my character in Oblivion and the younger brother of my soon-to-be character in Morrowind, whose name is going to be a female verison of "Dasu-Nir", something like "Dana-Nir", perhaps... unfortunately, if Argonia is going to be set after Skyrim, my character cannot be descendant of Drasnir, as he married a Dunmer (Brelyna Maryon) (something that would make his great-great-great-great-grandfather, who, a few years prior to the events of TES III, escaped slavery in Morrowind and utterly loathed Dunmer, turn in his grave.. err... the Hist) and as such could not have reproduced.
