crunchyorphan February 6, 2012 Share crunchyorphan Member February 6, 2012 I've painstakingly gone through my character map and google and I desperately need to figure this out! I need help figuring out how to type this weird look "d" in this name below! This is the clearest, largest picture I can find of it and to the best I can tell it's some sort of d with the stem slanted. I will give 1 million internet points to anyone who can help me with this. All I need is someone to type it out so I can copy and paste it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill February 6, 2012 Share Flitterkill GC Board Member February 6, 2012 I'm pretty sure that style of D is not in the standard character maps, at least for English, and probably standard Unicode stuff. Looks like a LOTR font. http://www.thehutt.de/tolkien/fonts.html Scroll down to First Order - looks to be the one (or close enough) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunchyorphan February 6, 2012 Author Share crunchyorphan Member February 6, 2012 (edited) Phew, so after some really hardcore research I've come across it, it turns out it is the old english lower case "d", pronounced eth.

Flitterkill February 6, 2012 Share Flitterkill GC Board Member February 6, 2012 Yeah, the slash across the top of the D would have been helpful before - you should have just drawn it and upped a pic from your phone or something Glad you found it for whatever nefarious purposes you have in mind.

MPG1770 February 6, 2012 Share MPG1770 GC Server Admin February 6, 2012 Just to clarify from over the pond: Old English was sometimes written with a version of the Runic alphabet, brought to Britain by the Anglo-Saxons until about the 11th century. I've painstakingly gone through my character map and google and I desperately need to figure this out! Just to clarify, Old English was sometimes written with a version of the Runic alphabet, brought to Britain by the Anglo-Saxons until about the 11th century. The actual font used here is Celtic.
