Doctor... who? Penguin MD

Escelika

Hello everyone!

Since there's a good chance all us will have this amazingly adorable Penguin minipet, I was wondering what everyone named theirs! We had this really fun conversation in Sideline about this and I wanted to have it again with everyone!

I'll go first, I named mine: Sawbones. ^_^

Also, feel free to list any other minipets you've named that you'd like to share. I think it's a wonderful part of the game.

Hawa

i'm ashamed to admit that i still haven't named mine. if hawa's other two pets are any indication, though, the name will be a blatant DBZ reference.

Oonagh

My little penguin friend is, "Noot"

Rebra

Hippocrates.

Big name for a small penguin.

I have quite a few minipets, and I've tried to be cute or clever with the names. Among my favourites... 

Plague doctor penguin: Poveglia. Poveglia is the name of an island in Italy that housed victims of the Plague, and is rumored to be haunted...yeah, I kind of got morbid with that one. 

An animated hemlock shrub: Socrates. The Greek philosopher, Socrates, was executed by drinking hemlock.

A bevy of bees: Buzby. Buzz buzz. I have them tag along whenever Phoe is wearing her bee dress.

A bone-clad haunt: Mumbo-jumbo. Eekum bokum! It's a hovering tiki mask, so I had to name him after the witch doctor in Banjo Kazooie.

A dapper tea-service turtle: Tortimer. Named after a villager in Animal Crossing.

A golden arm: Midas. Kiiind of obvious where I grabbed the name from. King Midas!

A horde of baby chicks: Chicklets. I love these little guys to death. They're so cute, they're my favorite pet to use for making deliveries.

A sickly green fungal spore: Barf. It makes fart noises!

A tiny pet rock: Slag. The pet you can make deliver things by hurling it at people. 

A walking scarecrow: Fiddlesticks. CAWCAWCAW. 

Drystin

Chad.

I named my penguin Jeff as a tribute to a friend who helped me gain a whole lot of confidence a few years back. Jeff is awesome, he deserves a plague doctore penguin.

Tiur

I am Producer Tiur, and this is my favorite thread in the forum.

Escelika

I'm still trying to gather minipets and I'm really tempted to exchange gold keystones for them!

Here are some more names!

I named my huntsman spider... Softshoe.

The golden arm... Lefty.

And my pastel yellow Taerilan hatchling... Sunbeam.

Phoenecia

This should totally be a thread about all things minipet. Minipet Menagerie! 

Hawa

oh, i have a cluster of spider legs that i named Handsy, which makes me giggle a bunch

Escelika

I named one of my spiders Hansey!

Oonagh

I have the following named ones:

Bubbles - an iron-clawed crab, which was a gift from @Tekias
Gildibrand - a gold bug
Macademia - a tuft-eared squirrel I got in a quest
Anatoly - my glass froggo I got during frog-mageddon
Riblet - my adorable bamathis boar piglet
Noot - my sweet little bb plague doctor pengu

These are all basically my favorite minipets aside from my Cabalist Gremlin, who I would probably name a curse word if allowed.

Hawa

not a minipet, but i named my grotesque bloodeye widow mount Dunglicker

gotta make sure those eight-legged degenerates remember who's boss

Tenshyo

BEHOLD

My penguin has the MOST ILLUSTRIOUS name. A name so GRAND and MAJESTIC your minds can't comprehend it.

Are you prepared? I don't think so.



... His name is Waldorf

Blanche

Sadly, I can't afford a plague doctor but I DO have minipets on this char!



Sadly part 2, Blanche sucks at naming things.

ETA- Someone (I DUNNO WHO) got me a penguin and now I have to think of a name for IT... that'll prob be it's name. Anyways, thank you whoever that was

Gavramel

A penguin plague doctor will now be named 'Lunacorn'.

Escelika

Done! An enormously fat rabbit will now be named 'Gnocchi'.

Macavity

I named one of mine Chillie yeah I am not original at all!

Aniko

I have a Moth... named Boll.

Elene

Done! A tiny whale swimming inside a globe will now be named 'Blubber'.

I wish I could customize more of my minipets cause that was a real blast. Here are some of my favorites.
heavy-bottomed silver grey tengu - Tippy
nervous dusky purple drakir hatchling - Tiny
poofy, beige jackalope kit - Tom
tiny, white baby bat - Oogi

Axius

I haven't named all of mine -yet-. I'm steadily working on it. Some of these have in-jokes tied to 'em, most don't. Most are my attempts (and failures) at being clever. Still, here are the ones I've named with help of friends, my own lack of clever wit, and an in-joke for one or two of 'em!

Baby bat - Mini
Diminutive Splitmaw - Arsepotato
green blob- Blobbicus
Nine-tailed fox of flames - cahrinna
Numerologist's gremlin - Crunch
obsidian Chaos hound - Intrepid
snowshoe hare adorned with bells - Kamivala
tiny pet rock - rockly
undersized bubonis - anguish

Wow. I didn't know they were customizable in the past. 

Phoenecia

Minipets used to be customizable up until minipet racetracks became a thing. Since then, you're not able to customizer minipets at all.

That really sucks. I thought it just got more expensive after you weren't allowed to use the customization certificates anymore. But you really can't at all? Bummer! Makes all my special ones even more special!

The system won't actually let me officially name it that so that's just how I refer to it. *hint hint nudge nudge*?
