Your stout and loveable chocobo (or other mount)

[Swift Nightclaw]

:chocobo:     :chocobo:     :chocobo:

 

 

So what did folks name their chocbo?  If there's anything pertinent to the name, such as being a miqo'te, or from Limsa Lominsa, include that or anything that helped you think of your chocobo's name!

 

 

I'm still thinking of what to name mine.  As a temporary name, I chose "Scout."  No real reason other than A) I couldn't think of a name I really wanted and B) Scout was Tanto's horse.

 

I was also wondering, does the dialogue when you get your chocobo change randomly or do you always get "he" in the dialogue?

Fluffles...

 

...When I get him/her.

 

That is all.

[SessionZero]

I named mine Odin. It was the first name that came to mind.

[Chisae]

Rika named her's Sweetpea, which is a type of flower...

 

Taijha named hers Missy (balmung) and will name it Missy again on Gilgamesh.

[Magellan]

My Wildwood named hers Sebastian.

 

I don't know what my Miqo is gonna name hers yet

[K'dath]

Tia's is named Warky.

Which... kinda falls flat, considering that they went with 'kweh' for the onomatopoeia this time.

 

I suppose I will name my next one 'Kwehky'

[DAISHI]

The Goobbue is the greatest mount in all of MMOdom.

 

Mine is named Goobbue Sr. My pet's name is Goobbue Jr.

 

They are also known as Goobanza and Sir Grassington.

Tia's is named Warky.

"Kweh" is still not a very accurate onomatopoeia. I would have gone with "Fwee".

[Magellan]

Tia's is named Warky.

Which... kinda falls flat, considering that they went with 'kweh' for the onomatopoeia this time.

I RP Sebastian as both 'warking' and 'kwehing'

[DAISHI]

Since the Goobbue pet attacks kittens I've written my Goobbue mount as potentially eating people... if you get too close to its mouth.

[Haven's Fox]

My lovable yellow fluff ball is named Da'shain. A little throw back to a favorite series I just finished. ^^

I'm still debating between "Rathalos" or simply "Wyvern." Inspired from the 'Monster Hunter' game series FTW!

Considering that in game birds are actually categorized as their own species of wyverns, it would make more sense than naming a flightless bird after the 'King of the Skies'

 

On the other hand, the Rathalos is extremely bad-ass. Maybe go with Rathian, Queen of the Land? c;

Wonder if you can make the Choco colored green then in future.

[Swift Nightclaw]

I would expect green, blue, red, white, and black to be likely colors when they introduce breeding.

 

I considered Anzu, but saving that for the possibility of a black chocobo.  Had another name considered, but saving that for a white chocobo in the future!  Just can't decide on a good name for my trusty yellow Chocobo.

Hawn, maybe?

 

And yes, like Goldie Hawn.

Haha, now you got me thinking of all flightless wyvern species in 'Monster Hunter.' Then again, I could just use the name of a dragon... hm... think, think, think.

[K'dath]

I really do hope we'll get a rainbow of Chocobos when breeding comes out. I so desperately want my black S-ranked guy and his lovely blue mate.

 

Their children however were disappointing.

I think everyone who ever saw that comic remembers it when "chocobo breeding" is mentioned.

Haha, that was great! I had a good laugh! This is why we don't do chocobo inbreeding ladies and gentlemen! :lol:

[TheLastCandle]

Teveriel's chocobo is named Eclair, following the Elezen's "almost French" naming conventions. It also seemed a suitable name for a swift steed.

[K'dath]

Yeah, but for arguments sake, birds aren't dragons. Fafnir, Ryujin, and Gorynych are all cool names, but it feels 'claimed' by imagery of giant scaly bastards. Chocobos are rotund and fluffy. Also, there's plenty of equally bad-ass birds out there.

 

Like Ninkasi, goddess of beer, who is a giant fire breathing eagle, conceived from the mythological equivalent of the big bang. There's also Aquila, the aspect of lightning in Greek mythology. Altair is the Arabic name for Aquila's constellation, and the namesake of the more infamous Assassin's Creed character with a strong tie to the imagery of eagles. Alkgnost, a bird of eastern myth that flies out of hell during thunderstorms to eat souls of those stuck out in the rain. There's the Lovecraftian Shantak, a great and terrible scaly bird that commands the skies bordering the dream realm of the gods. Oh, and the Roc/Rohk, which was probably actually a real giant fucking death bird that could carry away small cattle.

 

And these are just a few of the ones with cool-ish sounding names that aren't already spoken for in universe, like Garuda and Phoenix. Just for your consideration. We all know dragons are immensely awesome. The insanely OP'd birds in mythology get so much less credit!

 

Really was just trying to be helpful, not pushy. I utterly lose my mind and everything comes to a grinding halt when I need to think of the perfect name, so if I saved you a headache by cracking out the old dictionary of mythology, I'm glad.

Yeah. I never did get my gold chocobo though :c This was all way back before you could just google that though, so maybe I was just doing it wrong. Those darn strategy guides are never right!

[LiadansWhisper]

I named mine Courageous.

...

I called mine Anzu.  ><

[Roda]

Say hello to the swift and powerful

Quigley. :love:

 

Although I'm still not sure if I'm gonna have him icly though..

:T *slaps self* bad RPer, bad!
