Fair enough! I'd love to hear the story of how you got your nickname. Or maybe you have some good hunting stories? With some that feature this handsome fellow. ( she means the wolf, at whom she's smiling for a moment. )

Graham, then. My name is Hawke by the by, it's nice to 'meet' you. ( so much for good manners; her mother would be offended but not surprised. ) I was going to say maybe you could name him something true, I know that being called after your function is a naming convention in some cultures. ...Maybe something like 'Buddy'?
