What inspired your pets' names? (164 Posts and 1164 Views) | |

Picking a name can be difficult, but sometimes there's specific things inspiring those names. So I've been wondering, what inspired ya'alls pets' names? My current pets are Sirocco the Canisqua and Glory the Finngriff. Sirocco is a very obscure one, he was named after the wolf-like wind spirit from the Aladdin TV series, as I used to really like that character as a kid (it's also the name of the Mediterranean wind that comes from the Sahara). Glory was named for her (thinking of it as a "her") general appearance, I wanted something strong and majestic sounding, thus I picked "Glory". It is also a slight nod to the character from Tui T. Sutherland's "Wings of Fire" series, as Glory is one of my favorite characters in it. |

Rn there's Rin and Kaito who both are vocaloids. Do they remind me of them? Not really but those are the first names I could think of at the time. I promise I'll do better with my references in the future |

But then I looked at it and was like "Drax....how about the rest of the GOTG?" and then I named him Quill and I've also got Groot. Provided no one takes the rest of them soon I should have the full team lol. |

But I guess if anything, it can be based off the name Percival. :D Hikaru was a name I used for another game. Named one of my light-element units because of what the name means and stuff, and grew attached to it since then. |

Like, my Unicubb is named Snowy cuz I'm sooooo original. I did have a Sawrotag during the beta that was named Fruitgusher, and I think that's the only good name I came up with |

Noo-gon's name is pure pun. I'm not someone who's really a pun/meme person but I kinda wanted to. It's a combo of Noodle and Dragon. Rubix kinda dates back to my character RubixCube on Wolf Quest. He's got a story and was originally a parody character I'd made when one of the pups from a game got dropped in the river then glitched out so rather than disappearing, he danced in the river. So he was taken in by the river gods of yellowstone national park. I saw that the Canisqua was a blocky-ish water themed doggo and figured Rubix was the perfect name ;D Finley has no story. I just took Fin and made a name out of it. |

Then my second pet is named after my bearded dragon, Orio. Unfortunately, I named the pixpet before checking what gender they were Not that it matters too much, I just think that it's funny! |

So I had Bellana, Odo, Janeway, Dax... :D I started with the main Voyager crew but then ran out so I moved onto DS9. The only name I'm keeping from beta is Inch, since heck he was my starter and it's also a cute name. I imagine he's quite a tiny Troffinch too. My (currently) Igupunk is named Fugue after a type of pipe organ composition. I plan on keeping a naming scheme for each evo line, so once I get a forever-iguzzle, that's gonna be Toccata, and forever-igupunk is gonna be either called Prelude or Ricercar. I mainly go for either absolutely cutesy names or terms that sound vaguely name-ish so I wouldn't be suprised if I end up with a line of pixpets that are named Presto and Andante or also after various types of wind etc. :"D |

She was a dark dragon and was going to be named "night" but my autocorrect changed it to "knight" and it just stuck. XD |

Barley rhymes, and we often call her Carly Barley, so yeah. And Alabaster, my Indigoat, is named because of his color. |

I named the drax that she found Cyril because the Legend of Spyro series was a part of my childhood and Cyril the ice guardian dragon was blue. |
