    Question I need help with a word.

    Hello,

    My name is David Gutiérrez from México and I'm a graphic designer. I'm currently working on a jewellery brand and I have to come up with a name for it.

    The whole spirit of the brand is about being yourself and not apologising for who you are, so I was wondering...

    Is there a word or term in any language that could mean "unaltered natural state" for example: raw, naked, etc.

    Thanks in advance!

    -David.

    rude
    virgin
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?

    "Genuine" is a good word based on the description you wrote.

    For single syllable ones there is the German word for true = "Wahr" pronounced "vah-hr"

    Thank you very much guys! Now, how about historical/mythical/fictitious characters or figures that represent these qualities?

    Again, the spirit of the brand is about being yourself and not apologising for who you are.

    Thanks in advance!

    Well there was Mr. Darcy--he did his own thing. So did Huck Finn and Scarlet O'Hara (even though her book was sort of trash). George Patton was a historical figure who didn't much care what people thought about him. And Moby-Dick was primal, I suppose.

    So how about Feral Mr. Darcy or Elemental Huck? Immaculate Patton has nice assonance. Then there's Frank O'Hara and Untamed-Dick. I bet a lot of people would pay good money for that one. What's our percentage, by the way, if one of these hits?

    Hello!

    But when they make jewellery, that take raw material and mix it with other strength giving material and then make a design. The only originality is in IDEA, which could be GOLDEN IDEA too.
