Greneath or Grenéath (pronounced /grɛn.eɪ.æθ/) is the username used by myself on many forums, social network and video hosting websites, such as Youtube[1], Twitter[2] and reddit, as well as the wiki hosting website, Wikia[3] (and obviously Wikipedia).

History of the Name

[edit]

Origanally, Grenéath was the name given to my pet dragon in Facebook Dragon wars[4] (as opposed to the 1989 Fantasy RPG of the same name. This was an attempt to find an original name without having us numbers or non-latin characters, eg. UberDragon1344. Shortly after this I adopted the word as a screen name for the same reasons mentioned above. Although I quickly became bored with Dragon Wars, Grenéath is consistanly used to this day as my online identity.

Greneath or Grenéath

[edit]

Grenéath is the correct styling, in order to reflect the correct prounciation. However, due the differculty of inserting and é using a traditional qwerty keyboard, and the absence of accented vowels in english, the Anglicisation Greneath is far more commonly used.
