[livejournal.com profile] kalypso_v's brilliant 'Gravitas' prompted another addition to the set.

7.

Contributions are invited. 'Glamorous' and 'Gadgets' are currently being considered for Number Three.

OK, here's a selection of words you could look at:

Gadzooks, Garrulous, Gauntness, Gauziness, Gelatinous, Generous, Genesis, Genteelness, Gentleness, Genuineness, Ghastliness, Ghostliness, Ghoulishness, Giddiness, Giftedness, Gingerliness, Ginormous, Girlishness, Gizmos, Gladness, Glad rags, Glamorous, Glass, Glassiness, Gleefulness, Glibness, Glorious, Gloss, Glossiness, Glowers, Glumness, Glutinous, Gluttonous, Goalless, Godliness, Goddess, Godless, Goldenness, Goodnaturedness, Goodness, Goofiness, Googlies, Goopiness, Gormless, Gracefulness, Graceless, Gracious, Gramps, Grandness, Graspingness, Gratuitous, Greasiness, Greatness, Greatheartedness, Greediness, Greenness, Green fingers, Gregarious, Grievous, Griminess, Grimness, Grittiness, Grizzles, Gross, Grotesqueness, Grottiness, Groundless, Growls, Grubbiness, Gruffness, Grumpiness, Guardedness, Gubbins, Guess, Guileless, Guiltless, Guildlessness, Guiltiness, Gustiness, Gutless, Gutsiness.

My very tentative suggestions, but I'm open to persuasion:
1. Gruffness, Grumpiness - or Gadzooks? or Gramps?
4. Goofiness.
5. Guileless.
6. Grizzles.
8. Gratuitous. Or Goalless.

From that list, 'Glad rags' for number 3, if you had the right shot? Though Altariel's are good, too.

I like 'Goofiness'.

Actually, I'd have put Guileless for #8.

If one could us a G-word not ending in 's' I'd like "Gaffer" for #1.

And "gallivants" would do for any of them except #3.

I love 'gallivants', that's a great word.

Our suggestions (taking some of yours):

1. Grumpiness
4. Glorious
5. Guileless (we had thought of that one for 8, but it's much better for 5)
6. Garrulous
8. Gratuitous (cos it refers to the prettiness as well)

Thinking again about 1, I think I like 'Grumps'.

Grumps is great. The only one of mine I'm absolutely sure of is Gratuitous.

I don't like "Gratuitous" for #8. How about "Galvanizes"? Though that would be better for #4 and I like "Goofiness" for #4 better.

No, no, I've got a better one for #8: "Gambols". Don't you think so?

And perhaps "Gaudiness" for #6. (Well, it's more flattering than "Ghastliness"...)

And "Guardians" would do for all of them together... Or perhaps "Guises".

'Gambols' is very cute!
