Hello! I’ve been planning to write a story set in Edo era Nagoya- and I’ve been stuck on one big question in both my writing and own language learning endeavor:
how does one A) make a name sound antiquated? Since we’re talking about some time in the 1830s there would probably be more or less common names, and B) are there specific orders nanori is typically arranged in and certain combinations that are typically used?
More specifically to what I’ve been writing, I was thinking「梶原 銛和」but I’m not sure if it sounds strange or not! I’d like to keep a similar sound and vibe, but please help!
(Also for some context, he’s meant to be a weird glasses-wearing quiet type detective if that helps at all)
