Names, Anyone?

[Aberdefia]

I'm a great Pirate entusiast (duh) and I'm writing a pirate novel (hopefully to be published) and i'm running low on names for the crew- I wondered if anyone would like any special name addin? because I was just goin ta think up a few more names but I thought what would be better than namin' some of the characters after some real pirates like yerselve's It wud be an honour ta name the crew after pirates like you lot ;P- if anyone wud like ta be in my pirate crew just email me or post here whichever- i just thougth it would be a pleasure ta have you join my pirate crew

thats a cool idea. you could use my name .my real name is Tatjana .dorky huh

[Aberdefia]

that's a great name i'd be honoured to use it

[Caraccioli]

That is a cool name. How do you pronounce it? I suppose having a cool name is both a curse and a blessing. (I'm thinking of grade school in particular here.)

Aberdefina, try this thread. It contains over 1000 historical piratical names: https://pyracy.com/forums/index.php?showtop...e+nationalities

You might also want to peruse historical names from old records or gravestones such as these Cape Cod gravestones.

Of particular note in this collection is one Captain Jonathan Sparrow. And that one of the nicknames for Jonathan is "Jack?" Aint history funny?

tho i tease my self with an old nickname (for a drooling problem)....Mister Aluitous d'Dogge (M.A.d'Dogge).....

in mine own family tree....where i found an Aluitous...who was reputed to have a "pyratical nature"

'course there is also me real last name....."Beach"......tho it seems a bit ....well disney-ish....for a pirate named "Mister Beach"...sounds like they should be selling surfboards or sumpthin.....

though i heard tell my last name..."Beach"...is actually ancient gaelic.....meaning sandy shorline

"Fee fie fo fum! I smell the bwood of an English wabbit!"

"Wait a minute. You're the giant in the story of Jack and the Beanstalk, right?"

"Yes..."

"And the giant in Jack and the Beanstalk wasn't after no wabbit, was he?"

"Well, I guess that is cowwect..."

"He was after Jack. And he's Jack."

"It's a lie! My name is....Aloysius. He's Jack! Jack Rabbit!"

"No. You are Jack and you know it because it is a fact."

"I am not! He's Jack!"

"I guess I'll have to open with a paiw of Jacks."

For a Ten Dollar fee and a cask of Rum when I'm sixty you can use me pirate moniker.

Last name "Sith" ...I'll try to remember check the spelling. There was a great first name with it but that was at about 3:30 am and I failed to make note.
