I don't know if any toki pona speakers who would be here have read the Stormlight Archive, but in it they have these things called spren that are basically personifications brought to life, so I'd use different headnouns for each type of spren depending on what they represent. For instance one spren is an Honorspren (embodiment of honor) who I's tokiponize as lawa Sipena

summer cliff seli for fireboy and telo for watergirl

I think they'd just be "seli mije" and "telo meli"

i would just go with jan seli and jan telo

putting gender in someone's name is more common in english than toki pona

#

fireboy goes into the door with the red male sign

#

watergirl goes into the door with the blue female sign

#

imho it makes the most sense to specify their gender

vestal cypress Oct 21, 2024, 7:44 AM

#

oh yeah i forgot about the signs

#

meli telo and mije seli then
