Location: Nome Alaska. I wish, but for now I'm going to have to deal with Texas, USA



I was looking at an Alaskan atlas one day and I found the town of Kaltag!! I was just skimming over it and I found Kaltag! It's a town on the Yukon river. I thought that was really cool. I thought Universal just thought it up (it IS a cool name).

It's kinda funny cause one of my wolf character's name is Kodiak. I thought him up several years ago. :P Then B3 came out and Balto's son is Kodi. :P Sorry that was really random. :bounce:

Actually, Kodiak is an island off of Alaska. (and a type of bear . . . and camera film . . . . is it?) :o

The Aleu name was obvious of where that came from, but many of the others? Who knows? (Especially Dingo and Saba . . . . WTH were they thinking, if at all?)

What a coincidence...On the french side, we also found that :) (Wolf_250 found that while looking at maps)
BTW, I think this topic doesn't really suit in the Fan section. I'll move it to the B1 one.

Bummer. Now I feel like a :geek: (geek). I thought it was some knowledge that I found that not many other people knew about. :oops: But at least I knew where they got Muk and Luk (but not until recently).

Yes Nick is right Baltic Sea is on the other side of the earth also where is Baltimore..probably on the other side of the earth as well.

I bet Jenna was found as a sweet name...when you think of Jenna you think of sweet and strong....and Boris is an Inuit name I think...

Boris, I believe, is Russian. Makes sense too, doesn't it?

One day I was looking for the meaning of the name Nikki on the Web. But the site said that Nikki is a "pet name, feminine form of Nicholas"...how come?!? :shock: There's something far from clear...what do you think about? :?

Well, I think it's a name that can be used by both male and female. I remember seeing at least once a female character named Nikki.
