Help me name my raptor!

Unread post by Kalhoun »

Hi guys.

I just can't settle on a name for this guy. He was "Spike" for a long time, but it just never really clicked.

Kalhoun is a good ol' boy, and so his pets typically have "simple" names - things that describe the pet's temperament or looks. Some examples are: Hooligan the lion, Deadeye the condor, Pox the plaguehound, Moonshine the corehound, and Turncoat the (Horde armored) worg. I also enjoy silly names, such as Firepoot the fire turtle.

The raptor's personality is pretty open - just think typical "raptor" (clever, fast, deadly, etc.)

Here's a pic! I like the green, un-adorned raptors the best because they have grumpy little squinty eyes.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

D'aww, I'm fond of the green ones too. They just have the most adorable suspicious expression. The one thing that comes to my head is 'Sneak' or 'Sneek' (I had a temporary one named that a while back). Not sure if it's to your taste, but figured I'd mention it anyways. Hrm, other random ideas...

Thanks to Kurenio for the signature!

It was believed afterward that the man was a lunatic, because there was no sense in what he said.

When I saw your picture the name, Squint, popped into my mind.
