antiaircraft Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Generally when my brother or I want to come up with a name, we get together and do a whole lot of random brainstorming (inevitably involving some bad humour) until we settle on a pretty good final choice. :yes: It works pretty well for stories and the associated worlds (not just for names there actually), and it seems to do okay at picking Neopet names too.

Spritzie Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Sometimes when I get stuck with ideas, my husband helps me. He does really well with that. He has a Grundo that seems randomly named (humorously randomly named) but it's actually the name of an alien is some movie. (I don't remember which one.) Quote
antiaircraft Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I suppose we can conclude that having two people to churn out ideas and bounce them off each other greatly improves selection diversity and final quality. :yes: I'm also going to conclude that I need some sleep, so good night to ya! Quote
Divya Bean Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I am not creative in case of names, so I use sites like A Gift For Life, Classic Roots, and Beauty's Ensign for Untaken Pet Names. :yes: Those websites just saved my naming lives. :laughingsmiley: When I try for names, I think of the name first then check to see if it is taken. If it is (which it generally is) then I try the same name but with a one letter or so difference until I find one! Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I've never heard of any of them, though I'm assuming there for finding names that are close to something. Quote
Lego Man Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Evenin' guys. Sorry once again, I've been posting lightley. Oops. :worried: Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 That's okay, LM, most of us can't get on all the time. Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I can. Except when I have school or when my father is home during the school week. Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I can too, except when I have school, homework or swimming. Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I can't swim. I can barely even float. Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Yeah, I saw in a game. I've passed the last level, and I'm now training to be a life-guard. Quote
Spritzie Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I can. Except when I have school or when my father is home during the school week. I can too, except when I have school, homework or swimming. Can't we all be here all the time, except for when we can't? :laughingsmiley: That sounds like when I tell people I'm always right........ except when I'm wrong. Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Can't we all be here all the time, except for when we can't? :laughingsmiley: That sounds like when I tell people I'm always right........ except when I'm wrong. I like your thinking, Spritzie. With that being said: "I think, therefore I'm on TDN." Quote
livvy Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I'm always right........ except when I'm wrong. :O NOWAI, ME TOO! Must be that twin thing. ;) I'm almost always online, unless I'm unable to access the internet or at drama (and essentially unable to access the internet.) Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Or, if you're not on at that time. Quote
Spritzie Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 :O NOWAI, ME TOO! Must be that twin thing. ;) You're right. I'm almost positive it's the twin thing. There's no other logical explanation for it. Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Or, a possible logical explanation is logic! Quote
livvy Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 ...which only happens if I'm asleep or unable to access the internet, as previously stated. EDIT: Oi, double-ninja'd! x_x You are correct. TDNTwinhood really is the only explanation. *serious nod* Quote
-Ryan Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Hello everyone, how are you all doing today? :D Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Pretty good. Just got a new Display Name. Now I really am JB! Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 If I had nobody telling me to go offline. If I had no school. If there were several active people here throughout the day. If all that happened, I'd be online for about 16 hours. The longest I've been on TDN was.........18.5 hours. During the summer, from 8 AM to 2:30 AM late night, with plenty of gaming and breaks in between. But TDN was constantly one of my tabs. Quote
-Ryan Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Gratz on 5k posts CAV. ^^ And cool, JB. ^^ Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I hit 5k? *looks* I DID HIT 5K! I didn't notice.... 5.001k posts! Halfway there..... Quote
jumpingbeans Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Yeah, congratulations of reaching the big 5k, CAV! And Thanks, Ryan. Edit: Now it's 5.002k. Quote
livvy Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Hai Ryan. :D *waves* How are you this snazzy day? The longest I've consecutively been on TDN? Hm... probably upwards of 24 hours. Yes, because there was that time I fell asleep with the computer on, and TDN was an open tab. The longest I've ACTIVELY been on TDN? Meh. Maybe 20. Quote
