In Reply to: The origins of the name Toht posted by Jonathan JOnes on June 23, 2001 at 11:55:54:

The German word for death is Tod. And the "d" is pronounced as "d" not as "th".
Tot means dead. The "t" (either one) is pronounced as "t", not "th".

Obviously the name Toth was picked with the German word for death in mind. And doesn't Toth bring death? Well, he keeps trying! ;)

Who has noted that Toth dresses just a bit like a German vicar? All black and creepy...

: Hi,
: I don't know if anyone else knows this, but the German word for death is tot. Same pronunciation. I think this is where they got the inspiration for the name. Pretty neat, huh? (I new 3 years of HS German would come in handy for SOMETHING oneday!)
