Kingsword is a language created by the Men of Jevreth.
Kingsword comes from a combination of the words "King's" and "Word", as it is a naming convention used for the names of kings.
History
In 416 MA, the Anointed Kings decide that, with Noralar’s decline, they should create a new naming convention that would create names, based on the early Maelan language (which would later become known as Old Maelan), for them and their heirs. The new, loose system is named Kingsword. This Maelan-inspired system gains popularity over time and overtakes Noralar as the main naming convention of those of the Anointed lines.
Not all in the Anointed line of Kings follow the Kingsword naming conventions however. Some will still use Noralar and even Old Maelan.
