In a new project I am working on, all the different races are descendants of Gods. I am going for a Greek-ish feel to them so I wanted some advice on naming them.
One Goddess I have in mind is Atheca. So her people would be called, Athecians.
There is an "evil" god and I want to name him Dipotholes (pronounced Dip-oth-O-leez)
1) Do you think the way it is written makes it hard to understand to pronounce? I don't want people to think it is said, Dip-oth-O-less.
2) I can't figure out what to call his people. Dipotholean? Dipothlean? Anyone care to give me some advice when it comes to naming things like this?
3) Do these names sound Greek-influenced to you? These are the only ones I have made so far. I'm using them in my story:
Theocleed
Exthellion
Atheca
Dipotholes
