How do you name your creatures?

Just as the title says. How do you name YOUR creatures? Do you name them randomly, or after certain things? I'm just wondering because well.. I'm curious and need more names! 😋

Random number generator. (look at my first few creatures)

Other than that... repeatedly bash my head onto my keyboard a few times and use whatever letters that some up. (lol jks. but sry)

@determination Well, when I was new, I wanted to get at least one of each species, then do KD_insert species name_. Like with KDKujak, KDDiablos, KDUnhemn, etc.

But I kind of went off track. I guess I'll still do it with commons.

@wolfmilk Hmm... your Pyraguin got lucky. Or you just have a really weird head... 😋

I start with the species name and play with letters and sounds until I get there or I think of something random 😋

I look at what the egg reminds me of or simply chose a random name and in the end mark it as my creature with number 52.

I name them after stuff I like (like cars...) unless they are unavailable x)

I'm always stalking and searching names so have a lot of eggs to hold names 😃 Usually look through my Coves and find what name I think fits the best.

I always just try every name that pops into mind, because sometimes I get lucky and it is available.

I just name them based on what the egg looks like and how my personality is at the time

Hmm, sometimes I name it after something from my life (-_-Slippers-_-) a lot of the times I take a name and go like this -_-Insertnamehere-_-

i either name it after a character i like or i just make up a name randomly XP

@determination

I name mine after characters from manga, movies and anime I like, though some I name after other things, like Argon, who's named after the element Argon or Xylonymus, who's named after a genus of Orchids.

Tip: adding underscores, hyphens or honorifics greatly increases the number of names available 😊

I name mine basically whatever. So cool words, things I like, names I like, etc. A lot of them are named after various things from my fandoms 😋
