Further, "Castlevania" is a name which doesn't really have any inherent meaning, so you should have been Lojbanizing it, rather than making a lujvo-name. And the first place of cmene (and thus the me'e modal) wants quoted text, not a reference to a person. So you want zoi, not la'o. (And, personally, I'm not a fan of sel+rafsi. You're gaining like, what, one letter? Maybe a syllable? And then we've got to know all the rafsi. Blah.) -- Jay Kominek
