Jorunn the Skald-King

Post » Sat Nov 03, 2012 3:34 am

Gotta get this silly, trivial thing off my chest. :banana:

I would advice the creators of this game to change this guy's name. Why? Because Jorunn is a fairly common Norwegian name... for women.

Somehow I don't think that's what Zenimax Online Studios had mind when they named him. Obviously, this is not a big deal, but if they changed his name, they would at least keep us Norwegians from snickering every time we encounter him in the game.

All right, I'm done nitpicking. Looking forward to the game! :smile:

But Jorunn isn't a Norwegian, he's a Nord. Plus, he's royalty, he can have any name he wants. :P

Surely these are enlightened times, and if they're not, a sword to the face should cover any question about the King's name.
