I've always wandered if loa is in anyway related to elementals, guess not :P still i wonder if loa is universal or just azeroth, or maybe there are loas on each planet.

Intersting tidbit, has anyone noticed that you will see NE priests running around with EEelunexx and deathknights of all varieties running around with aarthasx but never Arthas or Elune i checked wow armory and there are 0 names listed of any major lore figure, such as those above or maiev, illidan kael, and the rest. There are 3 possible reasons for this,

1. blizzard has restricted these names (most likely)

2. armory was being screwy again

3. all characters named such were bellow level 10 (lol no)

If you try to name your character the same as any major lore figure - and even many minor ones - the game simply tells you the name is invalid.

Also, I realize it was probably a typo, but fun fact - you'll never see a character named "Eeelune" because the game won't let you use a name that has the same letter three times in a row. Probably to prevent people named Shiiit and Fuuuck running around Orgrimmar.

That only applies to the exact same character, though. You could have "Eeëlune" if you didn't mind looking incredibly uncreative.
