Name

This domain was named after the roman god of sleep, Somnus. (also known as Hypnos in greek mythology) I had a really hard time picking a new domain to replace Zexion.net. I went through a ton of names, and ended up with two favorites. It was between Somnus.nu and Leviathan.nu. I ultimately picked Somnus, because it stuck to me more than leviathan... and leviathan is kind of hard to spell. *ahem*

So its pretty obvious that I wanted a mythology-type domain name. I really, really wanted Hydra.nu but it was taken. But now I think I like Somnus better. Hydra eventually freed up when it came time for me to renew, but I decided I really like Somnus more.

It's funny, but this domain name holds greater significance to me now than it did when I bought it. After watching the classic series Saint Seiya, the roman/greek gods all hold a special significance. :)

Anyway! To read up on Somnus/Hypnos, go to Wikipedia. :)
