What's in a name?

[Peachblossom<3]

Why hello friends, enemies, accquantinces! If you are a current member stopping by to check out this help thread, you all know me as Peachie. You may be thinking, what? A non-staff member helping? How is that possible! Well, you are correct! I am not a staff-member(yet). But that won't stop me from helping out new members, or old members. Well, let us begin!

What's in a name? Well, there is a lot that can be said about this. Some say a name holds personality(I am one of these people), and some say it is a mere word that matters nothing important. Well, in naming a character(yes, this is a character name thread) you must take into consideration your future character's personality. Are they nice, kind, sweet? Or on the contrary, mean, spiteful, evil? You wouldn't want to name an all-out evil cat Sweetberry, would you? Unless you wanted it to be some sort of joke, of course. Here is an example of names that would fit a personality trait-
Loud= Loudwhisper/ Largemeow?
Quiet= Quietstep/Whisperwind/Silentwing
Nice=Sweetberry/Cheertail
Mean= Nettlepelt/Thornflight

See what I mean? On the other hand, appearance names are much easier to deal with. Most cat's names are based on appearance, not personality, because they are named at kit-age. Some names that are based on appearance are as follows-
Poppyblaze-orange she-cat with darker red patches
Frogspring-green eyed tom with gray pelt and long legs

See what I mean? I hope my thread helped you, and if you need help with names, just leave a reply. I am ready to lend a helping....paw. ^^

Dear Dr. Peachie,

I need your help! What is a better name for a tom with a cold exterior but sweet and kind in the inside. I'm thinking about either Jaguarfang or Nettleleaf. He's a decoy by the way

Jaguarfang
It's a good name for a cat trying to act all cold and strong, plus it compliments his appearance.

Nettleleaf
I'm not sure on this one, but it does make him sound weaker or softer, giving him another reason to act cold towards others.

Sincerely yours,
Rawr

Dear Rawr ^^,

How about these?

StOnEhEaRt
If he is cold on the outside, but his heart is kind on the inside, this may be the name for you.

Jaguarfang....nice name, but honestly, do these cats know what Jaguar's are? How about this....

LeOpArDfAnG?
Nice, and I am positive they know what Leopard are. ^^ If you were to slap some spots on him it would compliment his personality, skills, and appearance.

Nettleleaf....I like it! Never heard this combo before, so it is original. I have one final option as a name.

WhIsPeRwInD
If he is quiet, and fast, this may be just the name. Here ya go!

Sincerely,
Dr. Peachie
