Inspiration for the Names
These names were chosen with great care. Every name exemplifies the same purpose: to be a divine spark, a seed of Divinity. Before a prospective name could make it onto this list, it needed to connect to Divinity and to the Light in some meaningful way and the name needed to represent a beneficent aspiration or power I wanted to imbue a Spirit Keeper’s Tarot deck with.
I started with religion and mythology, sourcing names sacred to the ancient Mesopotamian religions—Akkadian, Assyrian, Babylonian, and Sumerian mythology, Buddhist-inspired names in Sanskrit or Pali, Shinto (Way of the Spirit)-inspired names in Japanese or Korean, the names of deities from the various polytheistic pagan pantheons across Europe, Russian mythology, Yoruban mythology, Egyptian, Carthenian, Celtic, Norse, and pre-Columbian civilizations in the Americas. Words such as prophet, prophetess, priest, priestess, prophecy, shaman, warrior, strength, prosperity, abundance, light, heaven, celestial, or divinity were translated into various sacred languages and those also became names on the list. In some instances, I worked with etymological roots from romance languages or sacred languages (such as Latin, Greek, classical Arabic, Hebrew, and Sanskrit) to conceive names that would be deeply meaningful and designate the deck’s power and potential.
A few of these names were custom selected by those who ordered a deck, and those names have been added to the list as well, so that the Book of Names could account for each and every named deck.
As for how these names might be pronounced, if it matters to you, then take time to ruminate inward, rather than looking outward, for the vocalized utterance of the name that will mean the most to you, and that shall henceforth be the pronunciation of the name.

Significance of the Names
Typically, limited edition tarot decks are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and assigned a number to account for that copy of the deck within its limited print run. The First Edition SKT decks, for instance, came with a signed certificate of authenticity that bore a number, such as “Deck No. 3 of 1,000.” For the Vitruvian Edition SKT decks, I decided in lieu of numbering them, I’d name them, each with a unique name.
Are these names significant? They will only be as significant as you want the name to be. The original intention was just as a means of accounting for the limited print run of decks.
I researched the etymology, source, origin, and meaning of every single name on this list to confirm for myself that it was a name that would endow high aspirations, powers, and Light into each deck. Therefore, yes, I know the meanings for each and every name, though I’ve opted to keep that research and database private.
Although there are a number of reasons why it is imprudent to release access to this database of all names, I decided it is in your best interest to have access, and so I put your best interest before my own. Each name was hand-written on the certificate and I know sometimes my handwriting can be illegible. Is that an “I” or an “L” I’ve written, a “V” or a “U”? By releasing the full list, you can look up the name yourself and confirm its intended spelling. Also, some names are intentionally spelled in a manner that may remind you of a more familiar word, though the more familiar word is spelled differently. In case you feared a misspelling, you can look up the word here to confirm my intention.
