Stuck on a Name for Once
Posted: Mon Apr 12, 2010 2:44 am
Hi all! As you may or may not know, my baby hunter Hildna has tamed a brown lynx from Ghostlands. Now normally I can think of a name rather quickly but this time, I'm totally stumped. I don't like silly names, and I don't typically like combo names (though there are rare exceptions). Other than that, pretty much anything goes. For example, pets on hunters I have now are:
Apollyon (Greek for "destroyer") - King Krush
Shikon (Shikon Jewel from Inu Yasha) - Gondria
Sheldon (has "shell" and just sounded like a perfect name) - gray tortoise
Tetsusaiga (Inu Yasha's sword) - Echeyakee
Twinblade (bandit king in Fable, and also fits because he has those blade-like protruberances on his chins) - Outlands chimaera
Timi (because I like Timmy from South Park) - gray tallstrider
Zutay (my own twist on Tsu'tey from Avatar) - ice claw bear
So yeah, I have an odd combination of names from various sources. I tend to go with whatever seems to "fit", be it mythological, descriptive, or reminiscent of a character/theme. So any suggestions along those lines? I'm kinda thinking of names from the anime Outlaw Star, one of my favorites and my dwarf is named after "Hot-Ice" Hilda (but Hilda was taken so I went with Hildna).
EDIT: Never mind! Right after writing all that crap, I thought of Aisha Clanclan from Outlaw Star. She can transform into a cat-like beast and has this wild, aggressive attitude. Aisha is perfect for my brown lynx!!! Thanks in advance to anyone who was going to throw out suggestions, lol.
