Fakemon Name Help *updated on 10/7/22*

[manaphysuki]

koinu, electric type - first stage

Hmmm... It looks like a puppy. Is it a puppy? Oh! That's the Japanese word for puppy. I see.

You might also try Inu, Japanese for Dog, according to Google Translate. It's electric; perhaps Pikinu?

Maybe Japanese dog breeds? Akita, Shiba, Chin, Hokkaido, Kai Ken, Tosa, Kishu, Ryukyu, Sakhalin. I like Akita & Hokkaido, & Ryukyu; would a variation on those be any good?

Maybe variations on other Asian breeds, like Chows or Bankars?

pikinu sounds cute :3 can i have the meaning of the first half of pikinu? :3

i think i might take it...

thanks :3






which one's next in line?






about viringo's evo's name, though....

Next would be its evolved form, maawiya. What does the prefix "maa" mean? Did you use to to indicate extra power?

Perhaps viringold - Pre-evo + Gold, to show it's grown more important/powerful.

Or Virin. Or Ingo. Shorter words & sentences sound stronger that longer versions. If so, cutting a syllable might make the fakemon seem more powerful/forceful.

i think viringold sounds too similer to it's first stage, somehow

maybe a different name? :3

 

[pacman000]

Pik - from Pika! (An electric noise, same basis as Pikachu)

Viringold... I'll probably have to look at it again, but how about warrigold? (War or Warry + Gold.)

i thought that was it... just wanted to double check :3

Viringold... I'll probably have to look at it again,

okay :3

but how about warrigold? (War or Warry + Gold.)

that sounds good :3

i think i might take it

thanks :3

wanwan

Evolved form of koinu, right?

If we follow the Pikachu naming convention, I suggest rayinu or Gorinu, variations on Raichu & Gorochu, Pikachu’s canned 3rd stage. (Goro meant a booming sound, like thunder, if memory serves.)

[pacman000]

kobuta ground type

It's a ground type, & it's a hog, how about Phil?

Other suggestions:

For some reason I like the word Peccary. Would variations on that be ok? Pecearthy? (Peccary + Earth for ground) Geccarry? (Ground + Peccary)

i'm not sure if any of these have a ring to it...


but variations on ' peccary ' would be fine... any other suggestions on that? :3

 

[pacman000]

Etcarry? (Eat or Earth + Peccary)
Urcarry? (Earth + Pecarry)

 

[manaphysuki]

Etcarry? (Eat or Earth + Peccary)

the 2nd one sounds cute

i think i might take it :3

@pacman000

i have a sort-of temperary name for this one...

fifapi .... the meaning is Fifa, which means electricity in thai... & pi, which is from one of the words for a baby mouse, pinkie


what do you think? does it suit it? ...
personally, i think it actually sounds so cute, actually, now that i've thought about it :3



also, which one of these look better? electric/flying or just electric? i can't decide...

 

[pacman000]

It's a nice name. Fifa reminds me of the World Cup tho. Might suggest trying variations on that.

I like the idea of a flying Pokémon, but I think the wingless one looks better.

What's most important, however, is what you like. After all, it's your character. Even if you were planning to sell it the final design & name must be your own decision. Market research is important; you should listen to focus groups & the like, but the end product is still your creation & subject to your approval.

arulu
water type - first stage

I like this name, but If you want suggestions...

It looks like a mouse, which reminds me of Merril. Pikablu was suggested as a possible name for Merril, but it was never used, outside of one early trading card. You could go with that. It's not very original tho. (Pika, a small rabbit-like animal; Blu from blue.)

Working off that there's Chublu (Mouse + Blue) or Moblu (Mouse + Blue.)

i would stick with my original name... but i've forgotten what the meaning was... ^^'

do you, maybe, have any suggestions for that one, though? :3

the one without wings

it's an electric type... pikachu clone of the region :3 ...




*if you need reminding, it's this one :3 -

[pacman000]

Hmmmmm... Gamefreak doesn't seem to have any sort of rule when naming their Pikachu-like characters.

Perhaps something to do with dumplings? Pikachu was based on a Japanese dumpling.

Pikling
Duchu
Pikaling
Buzling
BuzChu
Chuling

Most of these are variations of Pikachu + Dumpling, except Buzling (Buz+Dumpling) & Buzchu (Buz+Chu.)

elanora

Evolved form of arulu

Hmmm... The round ears remind me of a koala. Is that what you were going for? From that there’s...

Walla - Koala & Water
Woalla - Variation of above
Aqualla - Aqua & Koala
