[Opinions] Re: Dolabella
I love it. I bet it has a weird meaning, too. Does the "bella" part actually refer to war or violence (via the Latin "bellum" for war)? I love names like this, that seem to be one thing but are another. This looks like the frilliest, most frivolous name you could imagine, but it's probably not. *Edit - ok, it apparently means "hatchet, pick-axe" and that is just fantastic. It's got major Southern Gothic vibes for me, which is a definite win. It would be perfect in a steampunk Western.
