My RL career is not relevant to the p99 naming policy, sir. So far nobody has produced a legal notarized trademark application for "Loramin" but several different websites who compile that information for a living all give the same very specific information: Loramin--colgate palmolive corporation-1974. There are also dates of filing and a NYC-based address associated with this info. Anyone properly motivated could get those papers, or you could test this by attempting to sell something branded "Loramin" and you'd find out very quickly whether colgate-palmolive holds this trademark or not. Your vocal defense in the face of a preponderance of evidence is inspiring but we cant fight reality here. The only potential defense I see for the name "Loramin" would be to claim that it is two "acceptable" names put together as a compound (such as Lor Amin) but that seems like a stretch after the statements you've made.

https://www.elfdict.com/ Lor: to slumber lor- "to slumber" (LT1:259; the corresponding abstract noun lórë "slumber" is attested in Tolkien's later Quenya, so this verb must still be valid). Cf. also lor "dream" (Letters:308; probably just an Elvish "element" rather than a complete word) Amin: masculine name. hope A rejected name for Aragorn, changed to Estel (PM/269). It is probably a variant of amdir (MR/320). You will all have to forgive me, justifying/not justifying these names changes is the most fun I've had on p99 in quite a while. If I had all day I'd rip balers list to pieces.

The pharmaceutical name is Loratadine not loramin you jackasses and atop that it's just Claritin which is no big deal.

Fili & Fila - latin root for thread, or skinny - as in Filament Bus - comes from the latin word omnibus meaning "for everyone" and referring to a passenger carrying vehicle - shortened to Bus so rough translation of Filbus would be - skinnybus or threadbus which is an obvious violation... | |||

Copyrighted or trademarked names of products, characters, services, or concepts (e.g. Bigmac, Marlboro, Sony). "Loramin" is trademarked. You need to step your game up, baler.

I like where your head is at though with this latin argument, keep pushing and we'll bring another zealot down a notch. My immersion is at critical levels right now due to this discussion, trying to imagine what someone in norrath would or wouldnt have heard of. We should have done this earlier!

or; To invalidate the naming policy by attempting to prove all names are against the policy in some way or another Either way, this is making for some awesome Server Chat / R&F posts. I commend all involved.
