It literally says doll in it.
Impresionante el trabajo que has hecho, viendo todo y tu reflexión sobre Viego, pensando que no es coincidencia la palabra "ego" en su nombre, crees que es posible que sea algo como:
Viego - Bi Ego - Bi como si fuesen 2 Egos , siendo el como la misma persona que Isolde, contando como uno solo, me explico muy mal pero lo de ego tiene que ser por algo, Vi Ego/ Bi Ego, 2 egos , dos personas contando como una o muy unidas.
Creo que Isolda está bastante bien definida en la historia como su propio personaje, por lo que es poco probable que sea otro ego u objeto de la imaginación de Viego. Dicho esto, el enfoque "bi-ego" es definitivamente uno que puedo ver como relevante. Hay muchas formas de interpretarlo, y debido a que es un campeón muy importante en la tradición de LoL, creo que hay un significado mucho más profundo detrás de su nombre que aún no pude encontrar. Es algo que Riot revelará en eventos futuros o que personas como tú descubrirán en los próximos meses.

The work you have done is impressive, seeing everything and your reflection on Viego, thinking that the word "ego" in his name is not a coincidence, you think it is possible that it is something like:
Viego - Bi Ego - Bi as if they were 2 Egos, being the same person as Isolde, counting as one, I explain myself very badly but the ego thing has to be for something, Vi Ego/ Bi Ego, 2 egos, two people counting as one or close together.
I think Isolde is quite well defined in the story as her own character, so her being another ego or object of Viego's immagination is unlikely. That being said, the "bi-ego" approach is definitely one I can see being relevant. There are many ways to interpret it, and because it's a very important champion in League's lore, I think there is a much deeper meaning behind his name I couldn't quite find yet. It's either something Riot will reveal in future events or people like you will figure out over the coming months.
As a writer who struggles with names, this actually gave me a lot of inspiration and it was really helpful to see the patterns riot was going for when naming characters. From now on I will be looking more deeply into my characters' names.
Thank you so much for this preciousness ♡
Thake my +1!
I can't wait to see it when it's finished.
And Mr. Comet is totally correct about Etymology. Language is a beautiful thing, in my opinion.
Great idea, very interesting listing and explanations, +1 !
The word ‘ Myth’ originates from the Greek word mythos, meaning ‘word’ or ‘tale’ or ‘true narrative’, referring not only to the means by which it was transmitted but also to its being rooted in truth. Mythos was also closely related to the word myo, meaning ‘to teach’, or ‘to initiate into the mysteries’.
Great start, good luck for completing it.
Cheers, I will need it ahah. Thanks for giving me the courage though.
