This was the first word coined in honor of my beautiful cat Keli (herself named after a Kamakawi word). This was in later 2012 when I was working on Thor: The Dark World. I did, of course, also create a word for her in High Valyrian around this time, but in fact Thor: The Dark World came before the creation of High Valyrian (by about a half a year, I think), so this was definitely the first.
