      How can I use a literary byname?

      Give it an origin inside the story and decide who uses it. Keep notes about the character’s response and the personal name used by other people.

      Hindu sources use rishi in specific religious and textual contexts. Research the community, language, text and period you intend to depict. These entries have not been established as correct Sanskrit compounds or translations. A generated name cannot confer religious standing, initiation, ancestry or a place in a teaching lineage. If you are writing about an attested seer, use sources for that figure and record the spelling and context they provide.
