the lost soul

din engleză în română Artă/Literatură Folclor Mythology, Vampires
I´m looking for a name. I thought ,"The lost soul" would be good, but "Fallen Angel" or "The Damned" would also be acceptable. It´s got to be Aurally good, Starting with a hard consonant,(a D or a T if possible). If you can think of a name, feel free to make a suggestion or two. Thanx

agree Iulia Matei : "blestematul" sounds better than "damnatul", especially since we're talking folklore here. "Damnat" is a word recently acquired by the Romanian language, so I don't think it works, even though it means the same thing. Both words give you the creeps:)

Just a possibility; not a term in much use, I'm afraid.

Comment: "Thank you very much for the effort involved, but I thought that Blestematul sounded better.Damnatul was too close to the English equivalent, but once again many thanks."
