CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 10a - Name Discussion

[InHell 13]

Colivern (Coil+Wyvern) or Coilivern OR Coilivan

I can't decide which way to pronounce it.

I like Colivern, it sounds good

 

[KnightoftheWind]

My idea is Nimbus. In Classical Mythology, it is a cloud that surrounds a deity when he or she is on earth. It is also a common term in meteorology.

 

[XIII-Low-Phone]

I am happy with the result.

Ohmryu

Ohm (because Bulky [a unit of electrical resistance] so it's Electric) + Ryu (the Japanese word for dragon)
It sounds good and is very logical.

Awesome idea, I think it is limited to some artwork, but it's not a big problem, most of the best artworks have clouds :)

 

[jagged_angel]

Raivern! Haha that's a brilliant name! Definitely my favourite so far.

All the others are okish apart from Spiffy, which sounds like a fashion pokemon, and Thundragon, which is just Too obvious.

 

[oshada]

Mjolnir, the Hammer of Thor, the Norse God of Thunder

Probably the only non combination name submitted upto now!

(Pronounced mi-yoll-neer)

 

[InHell 13]

Mjolnir, the Hammer of Thor, the Norse God of Thunder

Probably the only non combination name submitted upto now!

(Pronounced mi-yoll-neer)

nice idea, but a little bit hard pronunciation, try misspelling it a little bit

 

[monkymeet]

Ryo-Savart

(pronounced "REE-oh Suh-VARR")

Ryo/Ryu (Japanese for dragon (duh)) + Biot-Savart. Both have silent t's.

The reference is a bit obscure, but it seems very appropriate, especially if one of the more streamlined designs gets picked. Also, the spelling can be changed to better reflect the pronounciation if people think it necessary.

That's hilarious, but I think it's too clever for something like this.

I rather like KoA's Styrm.

 

[Unownasofyet]

Submission:

Dreboare
(Pronounced Dray-Bo-Are-Ay if you are finicky about pronouncing latin correctly)

The name comes from latin. It combines Draco (dragon), and Reboare (thunderous).

 

[Objection]

Tesladon

I dinosaur twist on a famous electric engineer.

My current favourite, followed closely by Rextorm.

My submission is Lightnigon - Lightning + dragon, plus we already have dragons whose name ends in -gon: Bagon, Shelgon, Flygon.

 

[TotalPotato]

Well i dubbed my creation Wyvolt so I'll just throw it out there.

I quite like this name, as well as Dragohm and Reption. But to be honest, I don't think I can really choose a name or think of one myself without knowing what CAP8 will look like.

 

[Harro237]

Voltron
A combination of Volt + Electron, which i think sounds good, even though there's no dragon reference.

 

[Infiltrator]

I'm going to agree with others and wait until the art decided. In the mean time here's a name that could fit all the art :
Volgon(Voltage + Dragon) Pretty simple.

 

[Zerix]

I'd like to voice my support for seantyler's Raivern... I dunno, it just clicks for me. I'd totally go with tennisace's Spiffy, but I like the names to make SOME sort of, if obscure, sense.

 

[deimos]

I'd like to suggest Thorgon. Just a simple mixture of Thor and Dragon.

 

[The_Bassoonist]

My god! SO many good names already so far! Untill the art poll is determined, though, I will post Thundrake (Thunder+Drake) as my contribution. (just to be clear, I thought of this one before reading the rest of the entries).

This one will possibly be changed by the time the Art polls are somewhat decided....

 

[Wizwum]

Xolt

Combination of Xolotl, the Aztec god associated with lightning and death, and volt, to make it short and sweet.

 

[zyrefredric]

thundrake ^_^
thunder + drake

 

[loaf]

Clundathap

because the far superior

Kundrthunt

would probably be frowned upon

 

[Objection]

Clundathap

This is awesome!

 

[franky]

Impregria

The first syllable is for

Impregnable -able to withstand attacks (due to bulkiness)
impossible to "take by the storm"

The first syllable depicts its bulkiness while the -ria at the end is to shorten it and make it flow.

 

[Blazebat]

Teslaragon

Tesla Ray and Dragon combined.


Many great names and mine seems weak but may as well put it out there.

 

[Petope]

Kung Tjock

It means "King Fat" but would translate into Fat King in swedish.

Mostly thinking of its Bulkiness (Tjock = Fat) and because dragons usually is royal-like creatures (Kung = King).

 

[ray2020]

Voltron
A combination of Volt + Electron, which i think sounds good, even though there's no dragon reference.

isn't that a big mecha or something?

imma thinking something like Dragrandel [dra-gran-del] if the art goes all bulky

dragon + grand[e] as in big + electric

 

[lriley777]

how about Thundagra?

seems like a good name for a storm dragon, storm meaning lightning.
