Post Your Home in Gothsylvania
So, you've just moved to the country of Gothsylvania and you've purchased some prime real estate for your gothic castle/mansion/cottage.

Now you need a suitable name for your stately home, so the Gothsylvania Post Office can find you.

Well, look no further, friends! Your own name provides inspiration enough for your new address!

Through the mystery of anagrams, I shall reveal the hidden name of your stately home in Gothsylvania. All you need to do is provide me with a scramble (for privacy) of the letters of your first/middle/last name. If you need help scrambling, you can use this scrambler.

I shall start with Gothsylvania's lovely Vice President. DarklyInclined a.k.a Minnie, take your pick of names for your gothic estate:

Firemoon Vail Borders
Sevier Bloodfire Manor
Raiven Bloedfire Moors
Oblivion Roedeer Farms
Aevil Moonfire Borders
Moonrose Firebird Vale

Minty, all those vowels in your name made it tough, but I found you some prime real estate on a small island of Gothsylvania. Your estate is named:

Joie de l'Eau, Maice Isle
= jieslloiceaemuaidee

First of all, thank you for a lovely idea for a thread, Nephele!

And thank you for providing me with so many choices, each of which is distinctive and wonderful.

While "Oblivion Roedeer Farms" and "Sevier Bloodfire Manor" attract me very strongly, inevitably in this instance the "lost in the mists of time" feel of "Raiven Bloedfire Moors" is the element which makes me feel that this is the name I would most like my home to have.

As always, thank you! x

Home? I live at the office! Too much work managing the smooth flow of resources. Those damn dwarf mines! Its not like we have a shortage of them, and the hospital bills if you don't dig em' out right with the pick axe.
Never mind the evil mist collectors going on strike over the new slavemaster who does not like whipping them, for heavens sake, thats why they like the job so much! Its always people problems when you come down to it... :x

I need a holiday.

It would be a cottage, but an elegant, two-story cottage on the beach or lake. [Whichever is closer to town.]

Sorry about that, Nephele... it is rather vowel heavy now I look at it :lol:

Letalis Senium, even though you live at the office, you are still entitled to a modest little get-away in Gothsylvania for that holiday you so desperately need. In fact, I'll give you an estate that will generate a little additional income for you – your own hotel. Welcome to...

Le Jager Swamp Hotel
= llsjag werompahete

**************************************

Lady_Tam, you've got your cottage, as you requested. It's located on Headrow Lane, and its name is "Abzinthe" and your Gothsylvania address is:

Abzinthe, Headrow Lane
= Hziebatel Enan Hdaowr

Headrow Lane got its name from the olden days, when disembodied heads decorated the lane, all laid out in a lovely neat row.

**************************************

Stargazer, you have a modest but very comfortable estate, with carved stone serpents guarding the entranceway. Your home is named:

East Viperz Home
= poeitsearmzhev

**************************************

Puck the WaltzQueen, your estate is on a mountainside, and is named:

Unholy Azraele Trails
= uztaylairolehalners

Interesting that the main street in the centre of the UK city of Leeds - one of the key locations in the birth of the scene we now call "Goth" - is "The Headrow"... :shock:

I didn't know that! That IS interesting! I just made up the story for Gothsylvania's Headrow Lane -- do you know whether the real Headrow had anything to do with disembodied heads laid out in a row?

I'll have to research that... But I find it a nice coincidence! And an interesting, if macabre, thought!

Edit -

Nothing as gothically fun, I'm afraid.

Wikipedia wrote:
Appearing on maps as long ago as 1560, the Headrow once formed the northern edge or "head" of medieval Leeds' boundary, hence the street's name.
