Talk:Annis

I suggest this page be renamed to simply Annis. Calling them annis hags is like calling titans "titan giants". ~ Lhynard (talk) 05:53, September 20, 2015 (UTC)


 * But then what would we call green hags and night hags? Greens and nights? :p Anyway, I agree. The MM 3.5 just calls it an annis. — BadCatMan (talk) 08:40, September 20, 2015 (UTC)


 * On the other hand, in Volo's Guide to Monsters they are referred to as "annis hags". Sirwhiteout (talk) 15:34, December 3, 2016 (UTC)

I know I'm years late but I think it should be reverted to annis hags. Just calling them annis just feels awkward when almost every other hag (hannya aren't really hags) has the hag title affixed to the end. Also, almost every giant type is referred to as 'blank' giant.Vegepygmy (talk) 21:07, May 15, 2020 (UTC)


 * That's not true at all. Firbolgs are not called firbolg giants. Verbeegs are not called veerbeeg giants. And as noted at the very top, titans are not called titan giants, nor are ettins called ettin giants.


 * There is a major difference between a word being used as an adjective in a name, such as with green hag or storm giant, and the situation we have here. Annis stands alone as a name as is attested in many sources. "Storm" does not stand alone as a name for any creature.
