I was thinking about this one....
In Anglo-Saxon, eo is a diphthong [e@] (eh-uh) which evokes the sense of a
Klingon {e'}... (BTW, Anglo-Saxon ea was the diphthong [&@] (ae-uh))...
So the first part of the name should be {be'}... I'm guessing that
"wulf" might go well as {wuv} rather than {wulve'}....
So for shortness' sake, how's {*be'wuv} look?
