Node: In botany, a joint in a stem. In electrical engineering, a point in a circuit where the terminals of two or more circuit elements meet.

Stampere
Stampede (a sudden, wild rush of animals) + Ampere (a unit of electric current)
Pronunciation: "STAM-peer"
IPA: /stæmˈpeːɐ̯/

There are a bunch of other possible interpretations: Stag (male deer), stamp (stomp), etc., but the ones I listed are the most obvious.
 
WIP 2/3

Phyllament

Chlorophyll, an essential compound in photosynthesis + filament, like what would be found inside of a lightbulb. Straying a bit from its design so definitely one I wanna tinker with, but had to go for the pun.

WIP 3/3

Antleroot


Antler + root. Starter names seem to focus mostly on the primary typing so this is simplistic to fall in line with that, even if not necessary.

My favourite of the Thunder names

This works really well

S. Court : Luminelk
A nice name that's a bit more peaceful sounding

Stellar : Stampere
This is really clever. Maybe Stamperial instead? I dunno. Either would be good.
