    Help a writer out, please. I’m writing a humorous cosy sci-fi murder mystery.

    I have a character who is an absolute delight. He’s affirming and wholesome. He’s a monk. I need help naming his religious order. It’s the Siblinghood of the [adjective] [noun].

    Suggestions? Please and thanks.

    @clacksee Your mention of Pyrenees made me think of peregrination for some reason. Shepherd is a term for a religious order. It is also related to "canine"...
    Peregrinating Shepherds
    Shepherding Hearts (taking a cue from another contributor)
    Peregrinating Hearts
    Peregrinating Starcasters
    Celestial Shepherds

    The longer words earn the artisan painting or carving a sign for the monastery even more money, I assume, if they are paid by the letter. 🙂 If there is a monastery or residence that needs a sign, of course.

    "Scintillating" deserves an honourable mention. Maybe there is such a thing as a Scintillating Cantina? 🙂

    You had me at humorous cosy sci-fi murder mystery! 🙂

                          On second thinks... *cancel that idea*! I thought, as I wrote it, that my subconscious might be playing tricks with me, and it was! Too close to the title of that Bond movie...

                          Sorry. Takes a while for the brain to catch up.

                                      @clacksee I've asked @EFBQ, who is opposite the table here. She is assuming terrestrial, Christian or an analog of Christianity, uplifted or genetically modified...

                                      She says she'd need more questions answered, but I'm going with Siblinghood of the Faithful Rover.

                                        Help a writer out, please. I’m writing a humorous cosy sci-fi murder mystery.

                                        I have a character who is an absolute delight. He’s affirming and wholesome. He’s a monk. I need help naming his religious order. It’s the Siblinghood of the [adjective] [noun].

                                        Suggestions? Please and thanks.
