I've already grown pretty attached to these names, so I don't really think I'm going to change them, but I'd like to see what other people think about them.

(A little note, in the world that I am slowly developing, it's custom for the subjects to give their ruler and other prominent political figure a title of "[nickname]…the [adjective]" (even if the ruler finds it offensive). Nicknames are a huge part of life, so someone will often have a long name they only use for formal documents and conversation and have a four-letter or 2-3 syllable nickname they use for day-to-day interactions. Or, maybe, they'll just have a short name.)

-Dathena Fergeu
also known as "Dath the Dull" by the people of the country (Aneria is what I have for the country's name at the moment) she once ruled, because she was an incredibly dull person and literally nothing of importance happened during her reign.

-Viannina Okmere
also known as "Vana the Vain", was another former ruler of Aneria, and is/was known as "Vana" instead of her initial "Vina" because her name was butchered by a visiting sovereign into "Vanina". She was amazingly self-centered, she actually created a holiday dedicated to herself, which is where "the Vain" came from.

-Ianadeia Gufer
known as "Iana the Mad", is the current leader of Aneria. Her title was given to her thanks to her eccentric, unpredictable, mad (or crazy) behaviour.

-Marau Gufer
known as "Mara the Quick", is Iana's husband and therefore the 'co-leader' (not really, Iana still has more power than him) of Aneria. He got his nickname from his fast thinking/improvising skills.

-Kassandra Mordec
known as "Sana the Swift" by Aneria's people, is the head of the IRS (lol, I cracked myself up with that pun). She's got her nickname from her sneakiness and quickness.

-Wisteri Featherfoot (she's from another country, Viveria, and is the next in line to the throne)

-Hanetha, Daphene, and Morganne Kilanna
