Uh, of course - I always wanted to ask you what your "fenris-susi" is. Now it's clear. However, "susi" to me sounds like some sort of sweet candy, while "hukka" sounds indeed dangerous. I can't help it

Actually, Berta
is a woman's name also in Czech (coming from German, probably), though it's not much common. Not sure why the translator chose this version - "Bert" is supposed to exist as well, but according to name statistic database about 10 people in the whole country possess it. Vilda, though, is normal homy version of "Vilém" (William). Short versions of the names in Czech, even male, often have -a as suffix.
And concerning Järin Möyremä, to me it sounds quite nice and appropriate for Michel Delving. But it could also be a Ranger's name.
