I've thought this since I was introduced to the site, but does the name have any relation to 'green' in Japanese? I've pronounced it like Mi-door-ee-uh and Japanese 'green' is mi-door-ee and there's lots of green around here so I just assumed. ^^; Haha. There's discussion in this yet, though.

How do you pronounce Midorea?
Did you make some connection to the name like I did?
Do you see trends in RPG website names? (I noticed side-by-side vowels.)
Anything else related to the name.

Seriously? Shocked
I had no idea. XD

It's actually a combination "Medieval" and "Victorian"(minus the n), so it's pronounced meh-door-eee-uh.

    Hahah, I noticed that, too xD

    A trend I've noticed in Avi Sites is that most of their names end with "a".

@Cat: XD I see. That makes sense too.


@Fuzzey: And I do love this, Fuzz. ;D


@Sparkle: Ah, that's true. Avatar sites seem to like vowels.

I bet it was a subconcious thing, its too big a coincidence :o

it fits, meidevil, victorian, and happens to mean "green" plus an a at the end XP
