In Kidnapped-verse, I tend to name most red-skinned humans after birds. The temptation to name this lawyer Vulture is nigh overwhelming. Behaving is such a hard thing to do.

Well, you could go with a less obvious way of naming him Vulture. Like, the family name is Cathartidae or the scientific name for the turkey vulture is Cathartes aura.
*geeky bird biologist mode off*
but I agree, vulture is an awesome name for a lawyer!

You could also call him Nesher -- Hebrew for Vulture. :3

I did notice you've used alternate language in other stories, so you might do the same now. stay away from Romance languages though - common Latin root resulted in similar terms. ^^

I was about to suggest that. Like... I think in Dutch vulture is "gier". Unless you know Dutch, absolutely NO relation to the word "vulture".

Unless you know some German,in which case you associate with geier. Or you google it. *g*

Or you read it as a proper German word, than he would be named "greed" ^^

Oh, I have been lurking around for a long time and finally got enough courage to say something. ^^; Gomen ne. I LOVE your stories.

I like the name Vulture. I will share my own language so it's "Korppikotka" in Finnish. :P Little bit long...
