Need some help for naming Silithid and Devilsaur!

Unread post by Gungnir »

Normally I name my pets after mythological or supernatural creatures from lore or ancient beliefs. As a reference, my current list is below:


Jormungar worm: Jörmungandr
Skoll (wolf spirit beast): Fenrir
Arcturis (bear spirit beast): Björn
Warpstalker: Jinn
Turtle: Genbu
Core Hound (the beast): Cerberus
Frostsaber pride watcher: Feles

I need some inspiration for a name for my tan Silithid Ravager

Have been looking into egyptian lore and mythology as they worshipped some insects like scarabs. Haven't found anything yet that struck me.

Also my recently tamed Devilsaur needs a name. Poor fella is running dungeons without a proper name!

In Europe, some insect species have been named after Eostre and Freyja, who were both fertility goddesses. Freyja also had an amber necklace, and amber always makes me think of insects.

Mangar is an Australian lizard god who gave fire to humans.
