I'm not sure if this is a dumb question or not, but... Is it generally acceptable to merge similar-sounding words or names together (from the same language of origin) to get a desired one? Because I have a Norwegian word, lærd, which means 'scholar'. Also a Norwegian word, blåbær, which means 'blueberry'. Sooo... Is mixing words to create new names even allowed? Never occurred to me before today.
