THIS IS SNOT.
I thought he made the name up.
Just asked, he said that he made it up in a dream when he was 6. It's most probable that he heard the name once, then his subconscious presented it to him in a dream. Kind've weird when you think about it.
THIS IS SPARTA. Blockland
No no, I had that dream about 6 years ago - as corny as it sounds. There was both a politician called Ephialtes and another person who betrayed the greeks/spartans to the persians at some point. Ephialtes is also a greek word for "Nightmare".
I knew this without even looking it up, i knew his name was greek
Quick question.How do you pronouce "Ephialtes"?
I always pronounce the last E as a short I "Eh-fee-al-tis". Thats just the way I do it, I don't know how Ephi does.
I pronounce it E-fill-eye-tease
