Final Submission

Painthra


A combination of Panthera, the genus that lions are a part of, and paint. Loosely sounds like "painter".

Pronounced: paint-TRAH
IPA: ˈpāntˌthrə
 
Final Submission

Chimeroscuro


Pronounced: "Chi-mehr-os-kyu-ro"

A combination of chimera and chiaroscuro (the use of strong contrast between light and shadow to create depth in a painting).
 
Final Submission

Aslanhir


Aslan (Turkish for Lion or King of Beasts) + zehir (Turkish for Poison)

Pronounced: Ah-slan-here
 

CallMeDrippyT

Banned deucer.
Final Submission

Oozighness


A combination of "Ooze" and "Highness."

Pronounced: Ooze-eye-nuhs

First part of the name comes from the somewhat oozing appearance of CAP 29. Second part of the name is inspired by the expression "Your Highness" which is commonly used to address members of royalty/regality. Adds to the kingly/queenly vibe of the mon
 

Plague von Karma

Banned deucer.
Final Submission

Salvaleo


A combination of "Salvador Dali" and "Leo", the prior of whom is a famous surrealist.

Pronounced: Sal-va-lee-oh, kinda like Solgaleo.

I think referencing a surrealist would fit with the general idea behind an ever-changing canvas you can't grasp, which Color Change seems to imply. You can also draw the word "salivate" from it, which can reference the lion's carnivorous nature.

I liked your WIP better; this one is one letter away from the name of a Kirby boss of some prominence, Paintra.

As a big Kirby fan, I recognize this, but I felt the extra “e” both made it awkward to pronounce and took away the emphasis when saying “PAINT”.
 
Final Submission

Paletterro


A combination of "Palette" + "Terror."

Pronounced: "pal·it·ter·oh"

A palette is a surface on which a painter mixes paints, while terror goes with dark & scary chimeras/lions.
I dropped an r at the end, to have the name be "more Spanish/Italian/etc. sounding."
It comes off the tongue a bit easier without an additional r to pronounce at the end.

Mufastoil


A revised version of my WIP submission, incorporating Oil (used in oil pastel sticks) into the original Mufastel portmanteau.

After a while of reading up the final submission draft, I've decided (after some deliberation) to incorporate the word Oil into my original Mufastel submission, for a bit more pathos and pizazz. Thus, I decided on Mufastoil, to better convey the message.

Pronounced: "Moo-FAH-stoil"
