2. what's wrong with Chronos?

2.5. (this is a extra thing: what about a team that started with two people and can travel through time meaning that they don't have to follow the CNR?)

3. okay then, you come up with a team name with the letters J, I, N, and R!

4. the thing is that it would be fitting since the people on the team would've been on a JOURNEY! 1) Which means you actually need to put some thought into it. And even then, whining about "limits" is silly, the CNR is vague enough to still give you tons of options. You can name someone after a color, after something that reminds of a color, or just put some random thing that sounds like a color. In any language, not just modern english.

In fact, the CNR means that you can perfectly give characters names that no one in their right mind would think of using, like "Deert" or "Sooamp", precisely because of the CNR.

2) Chronos doesn't even fit CNR. He's the greek god of Time, that brings to mind no colors whatsoever in any way, and trying to argue that it can will only make one look like a total idiot due to the number of mental gymnastics required.

2.5) What's the point then? If it starts with 2 people is completely irrelevant to the CNR. If they travel to before the CNR became a thing they no longer have to follow it if they don't want to, but their team would already have a color-alluding name, and there would be absolutely no point in changing it.

3) Correction: Letters J, I or A, N or V, and L or R. So far all team acronyms begin with the Initial of the leader's first name, but the rest of the letters can be taken from the first or last names. In fact, Ren is already an example: His name is Lie Ren, Ren is his family name.

That said: It wouldn't be an official Huntsman-in-Training team, in fact Ilia never even went to a Huntsman Academy, even less Beacon. So they can name it whatever the hell they want, CNR or not.

Now, if we force ourselves to use words in the english dictionary, I can't think of anything, but if we don't, there's JANR (Janur, meaning Yellow).

4) That's an horrendously petty reason to use such a name.
