i'll update later! Btw guys be sure to post names for all the cata rares not that i didn't mention Shadowclaw for example there shouldn't be some named for him as long as it cata stuff...don't want to suddenly get thousand names for Loque

[Aussiehunter]

cool list, Torkoal is what i called my Terrorpene

[Jin]

Serqet (Serket, Selqet, Selket, Selkit, Selkis); was the ancient Egyptian scorpion goddess of magic. As with other dangerous goddesses, she was both a protective goddess, and one who punished the wrong doers with her burning wrath.

[Moore]

A name I thought about naming Terrorpene was Testudo which is Latin for turtle, and is also an old Roman military formation.

Also if I get Sambas I'll probably name him Roman :3

[Nenuarë]

Terrorpene : Brûlécaille. A mix of two french words: "brûle" (burn) and "écaille" (scale).
Karoma : Brumétoile. Same as below, "Brume" (mist) and "étoile" (star).

[bluddy]

good suggestions so far. keep up the good work!

[Kormai]

My names night be a little odd...my Horde hunters pets all have pretty nerdy names.

Terrorpene I named Raphael because he is red (on fire lol) and so he matches the red bandana wearing teenage mutant ninja turtle!

Ghostcrawler I named Ocypode; the genus name of the species of crab that GC named his sceen name after.

I havent found a nerdy name for her Karoma yet

[Varethyn]

Named in order of tame.

Terrorpene: "Tephra", (ninja'd from a random "Name that Pet" thread) a mixture of ash and other substances from an explosive volcanic eruption.
Madexx: "Obstrykken", (helped in my own "Name that Pet" thread) a cross between "Stryke" (in turn a variation on the word "strike") and obsidian. Note this is for the black version, I am yet to think of anything for the other forms.
Jadefang: "Fluorspar", I wanted to name her after a green gem/stone/mineral and this was the only "interesting" one that seemed to fit.
Karoma: "Ganymede", the name of a star.
Ghostcrawler: "Cancer", the crab from the zodiac.
Sambas: "Loki", the Nordic trickster god. Named because he gave me such a hard time, tricking me into thinking I'd found him but didn't.

[Minifig]

Aslan, just so you know, means Lion in Turkish.

I plan to name my Core Hound, Kyôn after the KYON ORTHROS (or Orthus), which was a two-headed, serpent-tailed dog, a brother of monsters such as Kerberos and the Khimaira.

[Lupis]

Named my Sambas 'Russell'. It just fit.

[Ziarre]

Terrorpene: Abbadon - Anglicized form of Greek Abaddōn, meaning "destruction, ruination." In the New Testament bible, this is the name of the place of destruction. And it is a name given to the angel of the bottomless pit, the Destroyer Apollyon.
Jadefang: Laima - Lithuanian name meaning "luck." In mythology, this is the name of a goddess of fortune.
Sambas: Altan - Mongolian for 'gold.'

[Lupis]

Oh, and for Ghostcrawler, I still like the name Devious. It matches his little spiky model, and, well, Dev.

[zedxrgal]

Or you could just try this:

[Macha]

My Hunter pets usually get fandom-y names:

Terrorpene - Bowser from the Mario series, 'cause he's a spiky, fire ball spittin' turtle.
Sambas - Aslan from the Chronicles of Narnia, since they're both beautiful lions.

Karoma got the name Loki because he was a tricky little bugger and I thought it was funny.

[Celi]

I use babynames.com and use the advanced search to put in a meaning.

I chose Pyralis for Terropene. It's Greek and means "of fire".
I have chosen Shahan for Sambas when I get him, it's Persian and means "King/Queen".
I have chosen Wahmenitu for Ghostcrawler when I get him, I believe it's Aztec and means "spirit in the water".
I have chosen Kachina for my red Madexx, I believe it's Native American(?) and means "spirit".
Karoma is being named Cloud after my border collie Cloud.

[Scarce]

For my Jadefang i named her Jaida which stands for jade in some language
For my Sambas i named him Leo just coz it sounded simple and perfect for a lion
For my Chromaggus i went with the obvious Tempus since he is a creature associated with time:p

[Ziarre]

Chromaggus: Uruloke - Urulóki is the name of a sub-species of wingless fire-breathing dragon, also known as the fire-drake. They appear in Tolkien's Middle-Earth and were probably sired by Glaurung. A single Urulóki is called an Urulokë.
Ghostcrawler: Quadrata - Ocypode quadrata is the name of a species of ghost crab once described as an "occult, secretive alien from the ancient depths of the sea."

[Acherontia]

Good names on list 1, but I'd spellcheck them Abaddon, Mercury, Leidenschaft, and Nemesis all need a correction--just so people don't realize after the fact and have to use a scroll!

[bluddy]

ooops abaddon and mercury wrong? Ne-mini-sis is intended though :Pwell facepalm for the other two *facepalm* other three *double facepalm*

*triple facepalm* didn't notice http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1019 already existed :S

[Celi]

Kachina = Native American for spirit seems to only fit the red one...don't ask me

Doesn't just suit the red one. I wanted something to do with spirit of the desert. So just settled for spirit.
