Raffles & Giveaways

Once again it's that time...I went on a buying spree and don't have names for anyone. Whoops. Here's how it goes: [LIST=1] [*]You suggest names for my dragons! Make sure you specify which dragon you're naming! [*]If I love a name, I'll use it and send you a surprise reward for every dragon you name! [*]You're free to do whatever you want with the reward! [/LIST] Rewards will be something from my hoard, or gems or treasure. Whatever it is, it'll be worth at least 25kT/25 gems (but probably more tbh). If you have a wishlist in your profile, I'll send something from that if I have it. I want this to be worth your time and effort! I love: -Names that reference something, like mythology -Names that could be given to a person but are really unusual I'm not fond of: -Names that are one of the dragon's colours -Names that are fairly common (for dragons on FR!)

Dragon #19[/quote][/center] [b]Thank you for taking the time to look! I can't wait to hear some names![/b]

I'd name Derg #1 Leviathan, Derg #9 Forest, Derg #13 Pharaoh, and Derg #14 Cyborg....

(I might come back to name more of your dergs :3)

@briar

I want to try! I have a question though. What exactly do you mean by uncommon in you 2nd statement?Are you seeking from a region different to yours? For instance, my name is common in Nigeria, but not so much in the US.

Or do you mean just odd names in general? (i.e. Jinx)

@lassavus Oh, a really good point! Sorry to be unclear! I mean names that are common for dragons here - for example I have seen a lot of dragons with names like Willow, Sakura, Honey, Flame, and although they are lovely names I'm really hoping for names I would never have thought of myself :3

I think Glitch would be an adorable name for #18.

@briar

oh man these dergs are cute

1- Kymopoleia
2- Demeter
3- Gaea
4- Nereus
5- Rhea
6- Jupiter (or Zeus)
7- Eros
9- Tartarus
10- Ouranos
11- Triton
12- Amphitrite
13- Cronus
14- Nyx

and that's all i got ;0csorry for the double ping but i figured out some more sdfjskfj

@briar dragon #8 is totally Persephone.

@briar
I'll probably come back with more when I'm not so tired lol. And I have a wish list in my info
#1
Thalassa
Greek name meaning "from the sea"
#3
Echo
Name of a nymph in the Greek myth about where echoes come from that is cursed to only be able to repeat what others say
#8
Cinder or Ember
#13
Anubis

@briar

Names!

#1: Mehne (North American sea serpent monster. Specifically a horned serpent (and Guardians have such brilliant horns!). Her pattern and coloration makes me think of water and dragons are fearsome strong creatures, just like sea serpents! I suppose this could also work for #11 once they're a Spiral, but the brown makes me think more of a river. Close enough though?

#7: Izanami (Guardians are originally creations of The Tidelord. Izanagi is the female creator of the world in Japanese mythos, who with her brother, descended from a rainbow to stir the ocean and make land.)

#12: Ixchel (alternatively, Ix Chel) (Mayan Jaguar Goddess. Occasionally tied to rain, which I think is even more fitting to this Bogsnek's blue hues.)


Edit: Ahh! Okay that makes sense! Thank you for the clarification!

Edit again:

#8: Carpo (Bringer of Autumn in Greek mythology). The speckles and currants make me think of a leaf's veins and the the darks spots that appear as they begin dying when fall arrives.

#2: Áine. The goddess of love, summer, and wealth in Irish mythos. Pearls are a symbol of status and wealth and this Pearlcatcher's warm golden tones make me think of summer. The butterfly wings further add to this as they're plentiful at that season.

@briar
#1: Oceanus (Greek Titan of Oceans)
#2: Gwenaelle (Welsh for "Fair/White and Blessed"
#3 Fescue (Grass)
#4 Damascus (Ancient type of Steel, potentially formed using organic matter)
#5 Aster (Type of flower)
#6 Solidago (Scientific term for Goldenrod)
#7 Hyacinth (Another flower)
#8 Ignis (Latin for fire)
#9 Volundr (Blacksmith from Poetic Edda)
#10 Nephthys (Egytian Goddess who has a role in the Afterlife, in funerals depicted as a kite or hawk wings)
#13 Ra (Eye of Ra, Horus' right eye it's weird)
