Looking for a wolf word:?
Is there a simple word (not a name of a person) that means "Friend of wolf" or "Friend of wolves"?
I am trying to make an original female name that means the above, but it needs to start with "Kin" as in blood, family, relations. Though I say original it doesn't have to be if there is already a fairly attractive word or even name out there befitting a female and means "Friend of Wolves/ Wolf".
All the names out there for unisex, or female that means wolf or any variation of wolf, wolf noble, wolf lord, little wolf, etc. etc. are all tongue tiers, too long, or not exactly attractive.
Thanks in advance =)
Update:The name would have to fit into our modern world and though I know we have some eccentric folk out there that would name their child Kinwolf, my character would change her name if she was named thus =p

Here are some other names for WOLF and FRIEND you might be able to combine or use with "Kin" as the start:
WOLF
Scientific name - canis lupus
Finnish - susi
Norwegian - ulv
Polish - wilk
Turkish - kurt
FRIEND
French - ami
Norwegian - venn
Some suggestions to consider are:
Kincanis, Kincanisa, Canisa, Canisita, Kinsusi, Canisami, Amicanis, Vencanis, Canisaven, Canisusi, Venulva,
Interesting...both "kin" and "wolf" are Proto-Germanic words suggesting that Kinwolf would work.
However, why use "kin"? That means "blood related" not "friend". The word "friend" also has the same beginnings...Proto-Germanic...even more interesting.
Since all these words are from the same background, why not use today's German?
kin = Angehöriger...possible
friend = fruend
wolves = wolfe
Friend of wolf = Freund von Wolf
Wolf friend = Wolf-Freund
coined name.... Freundwolfe
