What did you name your chocobo(s)?

[Gaspard]

Black Turbo.

 

And I'm dead serious about this.

[Tali]

Light Impact

 

She's yet to win a single race, but... bless her, we'll get there!

 

Away from the track, Kilid and Steelbeak are the bestest of travelling/adventuring buddies.

[DreamedReality]

Jaques's fightin' bird: Masquerade

 

Racing bird: Admiral Flamboyant

 

Ojune's fightin' bird: Dedeje

 

Racing bird: Gysahl Goose

[Khoure]

just unlocked all gold saucer stuff on my main. Racing bird is Quantum Swift, because I've always been interested in quantum physics and such so when I saw that option I had to go for it. I was going to make the second word as related to quantum physics as possible, but then it would be too clunky sounding and obvious.

 

So yeah, Quantum Swift's gonna win some races (hopefully). Calling her Quinn for short.

[Volk]

Blonde Nemesis

[Devereau]

So I take a lot of Hindu/Buddist lore into consideration on my character's names and stories and I like SMT, so I thought it would be funny to name my Chocobo Mara, because it is basically a dick chariot and I am 12. That, and it is from that lore. 

 

My racing one is Lord Lavende for obvious reasons, however. 

 

(Hint: I'm LAVENDER)

[Knight Kat]

Kiht's personal Chocobo is a blue male named Windrunner. He is unruly, so he and Kiht together are often like a comedy routine.

 

Kiht's racing Chocobo is not IC, but I chose a female named Flying Spear.

[Magellan]

I always name them what I think my character would name them ICly, and so I have:

 

-Sebastian

-Butterscotch

and

-Starlight

[Jana]

Jana's IC company chocobo is named Khenta, meant to be a male version of her NPC-sister's name. Her (probably OOC?) racing chocobo is currently named Elegant Clipper. I'm saving Wild Challenger for a few breedings down...

 

[Haecid]

I ruminated on this for a very long time. Many candidates were put forward to a council of mine own choosing.

 

I went with Restless Leg.

[Ronin'ra]

Pretty Long.

[Havoc Snow]

My companion chocobo is named Arkam, my race chocobo is named Ebony Bonheur.

[Izayoi]

My companion Chocobo is Taisho, the racing one is Noire Wind 

[QueenFrejyalen]

The madness got to me Vaughn...the bloodlust...I couldn't hold it back.  DD=

[Darien Cadell]

Healerbird is Bluebell ...for reasons.

Racingbird is Galaxy Goose... because it made me laugh.

[Aduu Avagnar]

Oh, I forgot to say the name of my Chocobro!

 

Given my talent at naming, from the same mind that brought the pets Emmy, Topy, Iffy, Gary and Titty

 

I present to you.....

 

 

 

 

Choco

[Kellach Woods]

Companion Chocobo : Phantom

Racing Chocobo : Jumping Quantum (I random'd it - girl's gonna be a good mother to the actual racing chocos)

[Steel Wolf]

So after flipping through the pages of presets, I settled on the name Crucial Trot (I think? Keep forgetting the damn bird's name) for my racerbird for the simple reason of "That sounds about as silly as actual racehorse names."

 

Turned out to be appropriate, as the very first race I ran, I won it by pacing my speed gauge while the lead bird gassed out at the final straight.

Turned out to be appropriate, as the very first race I ran, I won it by pacing my speed gauge while the lead bird gassed out at the final straight.

 

That's how I seem to manage placing decently well most of the time. Though sometimes I hold back too much and I have, like, 20-30% more stamina than everyone else near the end and I go "OH" and spam dash the rest of the way.

 

... though I did have one race where EVERYONE miscalculated and we did the last third to a quarter of the rest with all the birds exhausted. Watching a full line of 8 birds panting their way to the finish line was pretty hilarious.

[Warren Castille]

Named my racing bird last night. Obsidian Spirit charges through!
