Talk:Ainz Ooal Gown (Guild)/@comment-80.220.161.110-20151021211643/@comment-128.130.242.21-20151027191624

You made me search a lot online after reading your comment ;-)

So, I think the author might have went with the esoteric meaning "Ansuz =  Ancestral Sovereign God" and shortened it later to Ainz to intentionally make it sound like the german "Eins"

Odal is too different from Ooal when said aloud but side to side, they look very similar. With just a 2 millimeter line on the "o" you can tranform "Ooal to Odal". And Odal literally means "Homeland"

Kaun's esoteric meaning is "knowledge"

So now, the full true name of the guild can be :

"Ancestral Sovereign Gods Homeland and knowledge"

The author must have chose the words in this order "Ansuz Odal Kaun" then changed them "Ainz Ooal Gawn" to also make use of german and english words and made them sound like "Eins All Gone"  (Eins here meaning "One").

Conclusion = the author is more of a genius than I thaught
