Where did my author name Aegelis come from?
Aegelis was a character I had made on EverQuest in the early 2000s as a result of shifting around letters and considering words like Angel, Eagle, Aegean, and Aegis. I always liked the ae combo and use wherever possible.
Pronunciation is
A (like the first letter of the alphabet)
Jee (like jeep)
Liss (like list without the t)
My pronunciation can be heard on my YouTube videos and was a fun topic of discussion on the interview for X (Captain Ruik's Adventure).
My nom de plume came about after publishing when a friend could not find books under a simplified version of my name as Tony Cook. I double-backed, trying to find something more unique and unused. Having found the character name, I made transition which seems to be successful for all parties.

Expandword
My new word "expandword" is taking an acronym or shortened word and making it phonetic or clear, thereby longer used mainly when sounding like speaking or quoting someone speaking, not to reduce document efficiency.
For example:
Teevee for TV
Ellellem is expanded from LLM
Peesee is expanded from PC
Effbee Eye (space needed due to vowel crunching) from FBI
Fuhtuhwuh for FTW
Ellellsee is expanded from LLC
AyEye is a.i.
Birb for brb
Jaypee Morgan instead of J.P. Morgan
Kayeffsee for those who like buckets of chicken
If clarity is needed, capitalization can be included like: TeeVee, but would be like accent notation in French, take it or leave it.
Have fun coming up with more if you like! I don't know what I'm going to use my garbage Aegelish dictionary for, but it's self-entertaining at the very least.
