The Hosta Revolution Needs Your Help - Again!
Two years a back I begin a photographic cartoon about Gnomes and Hosta, and the problems each has. The project slide to a halt when I could not find a manufacturer of Gnomes who would consent to letting me photograph them within a cartoon setting. I even went through a change of name for the cartoon to the "Hosta Revolution". I have silently kept hunting and this spring I may have found a doll maker who might be interested in producing a set of five gnome dolls for the cartoon project.
With the presumption this will happen ..., and probably exceptionally prematurely in planning, below is a list of 20 names I might use for our forthcoming gnomes. You might note that all of these names reflect hosta I have at this time. These 'gnome' names are intended to be unisex. Add a comment below and let me know which five names you would prefer:
- Bow Rainbow's End
- Chick Dixie Chickadee
- Dan Dancing Queen
- Dixie Dixie Chickadee
- Fire Fire and Ice
- Fronz Tortifrons
- Gorg Gorgon
- Hack Hacksaw
- Hol Holy Mouse Ears
- Ice Fire and Ice
- June June
- Kin Kinbotan
- Lemon Lemon Lime
- Lib Liberty
- Lime Lemon Lime
- Masq Masquerade
- Pim Derived from Imp
- Venu 'venusta'
- Vul Vulcan
- Wu Empress Wu
Keep in mind that the final names chosen may or may not reflect the character's temperament. Unlike the hosta names which hint at their predisposition [Tortifrons being legally minded; Vulcan being logical; Empress Wu being a little controlling; Dancing Queen always needing space (to dance); etc.]; the gnome names chosen will reflect the characters more generally.
Deadline will be until the next publishing of the Hosta Revolution.
