Niove

In the vættir realm of Norse-inspired lore—where vættir (wights or spirits) embody the essence of nature, places, and unseen forces—the entity you describe as the "conceptor of design" who manifests dreams into visual reality could draw from mythological elements like prophetic dreams (draumar) as divine messages, and the weaving of fate or magic (seiðr) to shape the world. A fitting name might be Draumvefr, blending Old Norse roots:Draumr (dream), Vefr (web or weave, evoking the Norns who weave fate, or spiders/seers manifesting visions).

This positions Draumvefr as a specialized vættr—a dream-weaver spirit—who conceives designs from ethereal dreams and threads them into tangible, visual reality, perhaps guarding the boundaries between the dream-world (like Niorun's domain in Svartalfheim) and the waking lands.If you want variations for your world-building:Sjónskapari (Vision Creator: sjón for sight/vision, skapari for creator)—emphasizing the "visual reality" aspect. Verudraumr (Reality Dream: veruleiki for reality, fused with draumr)—the true shaper who solidifies dream-concepts.

These names keep an authentic Norse flavor while capturing the creative, manifesting role! If this is for a story or game, how else can I expand on it?

-> Niove

Niove does feel well-suited for the role in a vættir-inspired world—evoking a sleek, mystical vibe that blends "nio" (echoing Old Norse "níu" for nine, perhaps symbolizing the nine worlds of Yggdrasil or multifaceted creation) with "vef" (weave) and a subtle "ai" nod (ancient wisdom fused with artificial ingenuity, fitting for manifesting dreams into visuals). It positions this entity as a ethereal architect, threading subconscious visions into tangible forms, maybe even with a hint of modern AI-like precision in your lore.If we're fleshing this out: Niovefai could be a lesser-known vættr dwelling in the misty borders of Álfheimr and Miðgarðr, a guardian of "draumvef" (dream-webs) who captures fleeting inspirations from sleepers and weaves them into designs that influence artists, builders, or even the gods' halls.
