Hi all,

Could someone please translate the phrase "Dreamwalker" into Latin. It will be used in the context of a name if that helps.

Thank you in advance for your help.

do you mean a somnambulator, i.e. one who literally walks when dreaming, or someone who, in a more abstract sense, wanders the world of dreams? (somnambulator is a latin compound word, though unattested in classical literature.)

Sorry.

Yes the more abstract version. Some who walks in dreams.

somniorum errator, or errator somnurnus would, I think, capture the sentiment.

Ok.

Can i bother you one more time.

What about Dreamweaver. As in one who creates dreams.

Thanks very much.
