Naming a Coven

Hello all, Njaara here. A friend and I, we've been doing magick together for some time, both starting out as solitary Wiccans. We've always held a close bond and know that together, we have pretty powerful spells for novices. We've wanted for a very long time to start a coven but we've often stuck to simple study groups because we could never find reliable and fully willing "students" to join us. But we finally have trustworthy people who truly want to follow the path and as far as names, my friend and I are drawing a blank for the coven. I plan on doing some heavy meditation these next few weeks before we officially take steps towards starting, but I wanted the advice of some frequent forum visitors as far as ideas for names go. Are any of you in real-life covens? (As in non-virtual) What should one typically seek in a coven name?

Much thanks in advance.
Blessed Be )0(

Something that suits the coven's belifes and practices.

Something which agrees with its purpose and agrees with the belief of its members. What will you he focusing on? What beliefs do you all have in common? What do you hope to achieve as a coven? Those are the questions you should be asking yourself.

If a coven prays or looks to a certain god or goddess you might incorporate something related to them in the name. In the end think and see if anything calls out to you.

my coven doesn't have a name. might bring it up to them next time we meet. we just get together once a month or so for rituals.

if you wish to name your coven come p with one that speaks to everyone. just because you like 'ravenwind' [as an example] some people may not, and a coven is for everyone, just just a few. if one person doesn't like the name, you shouldn't choose it.

sounds a nice thought
