I was thinking of names to call my minecraft Nordic villages. The easiest way I could think of was to translate something that sounded cool into German. What do you think of the names?

English:

House iron mace/ Iron mace.

Mead sun.

Armor bane.

House wine road/ Wine road.

German translations:

Haus Eisenkeule. Eisen Keule.

Mead Sonne.

Rüstung Fluch.

Hauswein Straße. Weinstraße

Note:

Ws are pronounced "V", and ß is like an "S"

What do you think?

Those translations are completely wrong, both in grammar and in the actual words. You can't trust google translate Razz

Hold on, I'll try to translate it for you in a way that makes it sound cool

Iron Mace = Järn stridsklubba (what you said would be a nutmeg flower... not very cool at all lol) Razz

Mead Sun = Mjöd Sol ("solen" would mean THE sun)

Armor Bane = Rustnings Bane

Wine Road = Vin Väg (that is correct)


But those names you had weren't that cool and there's not much else I can do with them. You have any other names?

You have to remember that there are synonyms and stuff that can really mess up translations. The only way to get accurate translations is through a good old dictionary book Razz

I'll try to come up with some name that could sound good, but it's hard because the way you Americans pronounce Swedish makes everything sound retarded Razz I will try to find something that sounds good in English

This is just at the top of my head:

Black Valley = Svartdal
Warrior Valley = Krigardal

Holmgard (holm means holme)
You could also use Halmgård but I think that's a real city...

Northern Kingdom = Nordarike

Sword Town = Svärdtorp
Axe Town = Yxtorp

Battle Village = Slagby
Warrior Village = Krigarby


This is variations of how real viking and Swedish towns/villages usually sound like. Like any of these?

Geneva?

That's the name of the town right next to mine. Its high school is also my high school's biggest rivals...

Their sports mascot is the Vikings. I'm pretty sure its because of the town name.

Anyways, just a suggestion. Besides, its a lot easier to pronounce than:

^ How do you even pronounce that last one with the "Y" in it? :/

Edit: Just realized you wanted something original...my bad. lol
