Wouldn't all or most of the Nymph names sound better if the upgraded and unupgraded names switched around? The upgraded names sound really basic to me personally.

Unupgraded | Upgraded : Notes
Turquoise Nymph | Aether Nymph : Switch
Blue Nymph | Air Nymph : Maybe for this cause changing the upgraded name to "Azure Nymph"
Black Nymph | Dark Nymph : Well, this seems okay.. unless you want to add some stone or gem name like Onyx Nymph
Grey Nymph | Death Nymph : Seems alright.. Any ideas of improving this one? I'm stumped.
Auburn Nymph | Earth Nymph  : Switch
Purple Nymph | Purple Nymph : Maybe from Purple Nymph to Violet or Amethyst Nymph?
Red Nymph | Fire Nymph : Maybe change "Fire" to "Crimson"?
Amber Nymph | Gravity Nymph : Switch
Green Nymph | Life Nymph : Maybe change "Life" to "Jade"?
White Nymph | Light Nymph : Seems okay.. unless you want to add some stone or gem name like Opal Nymph
Golden Nymph | Golden Nymph : I like "Golden," but maybe make the unupgraded "Time Nymph"?
Queen Nymph | Water Nymph : Switch, this one bothers me the most.  :-X

No suggestions mechanical wise, all just aesthetics.

No, the Unupgarded nymph is the color of it's respective element while the upgraded nymph is the actual name of the element, in 10/12 cases anyway.

Maybe the names should be changed a bit. I don't think azure should replace blue though. You can imagine a blue sky but to me its lakes and seas that are azure. Crimson is taken already - I have a thing against repitition :) Ditto for Jade.
Completely agree on the last one. It does seem a bit strange that the queen is the lesser one  :-\

That's just why I think they sound too simple to be upgraded names.

Technically, this is BLUE, while this is AZURE. Blue is one of the primary colors, while azure is a tertiary color and the mixture of BLUE and CYAN; in other words, azure is three quarters BLUE and one quarter GREEN.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

I agree. I think the :water upgraded nymph should be called Nymph Queen, as it reigns over the rest of the nymphs. When you upgrade it, to me it sounds like it's getting a demotion to :water class, so to speak. The rest are the same too in my opinion, but if that's the way Zanz wants it, then that's his choice.

That's because in Elements, there is no higher class than being called what your element is.

Yes, but I think that if you call it Water Nymph, it sounds just like the rest of the nymphs. If you call it "Nymph Queen", it sounds a lot more flashy, and powerful. It's like the difference between Firefly queen and Light-emmiting firefly. The Queen is more powerful (In most cases)
