usinski Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Am I the only one who's ever grown to hate one of my pet's names after some time? I'm thinking I could just trade her for a dreamie if I ever get a lucky shot with the SL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca~ Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I know the feeling. :( I'm pretty happy with my current pets' names, but the names I chose when I first started were just dreadful. Urgh. gnorbaby 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koralis Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I completely agree. I adopted all my pets from the pound so I had no say about all the numbers attached to the names (which is what bothers me the most). I've put too much time and money into improving them though to start over now with new pets. I wish there was some kind of potion or something that allowed us to rename them. feonix4, Batman, Alasa and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sara1elo Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Yes, I don't like names with numbers but I adopted Anie and she had numbers on her name... I don't hate it, just don't like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naamah D. Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 That's why I "nickname" my pets. I shorten their names so they sound more appealing. GillyTook and Wildbreeze 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmacow Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I can absolutely relate. My "main" pet; The oldest on my account who is also my favourite and strongest pet has a rather undesirable name. Uncapitalised and a superfluous R at the end. I find my aisha's name idiotic as well. I don't even want to say it here, it's so lame. That's the punishment for lack of foresight.

sarria33 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I started neopets when I was like 8 so my names are pretty bad...they have long numbers ahead of them so i just like shortening their names in everyday conversation. Like I call my Angelica200210 just Angelica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nintylizard2 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I think I must be the only person that actually likes their pets names! My first ever account got frozen a few months after joining Neopets, so when I started my new account I made sure to only create pets with cool names :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I call my Angelica200210 just Angelica. That's exactly what I do! My Techo is called Lava, my Blumaroo is just called Chibi, my Ogrin is just called Ezzy. It makes it so much easier.

passiflora Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I don't hate any of my pets names, but I'm sure I would have hated the ones I created when I was younger, lol. I'm not too picky about names as long as they don't contain a bunch of numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FurorPaxx Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I still like the names of the pets I created, but I adopted a Buzz with a very strange name... FiareingBuzz. For the most part, I have accepted his deep, deep flaw. (My eyes see it, but my brain reads FiringBuzz and he shall some day be painted with flames. I refuse to paint him Faerie. I simply will not allow it.) No, what I truly hate with a passion that defies articulation is my brand new Shoyru. I don't mind the numbers in its name so much, but it's female and has weepy eyes and it is, of course, a Shoyru. I obtained it for the avatar and shall get rid of it as soon as it is strong enough to win a battle. Maybe I'll be generous and paint it before trading it, but that froo-froo Charmander has got to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunwichchild Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I created my first pet when I was 8, and just kind of clicked on one of the suggested names.... the result? aisha_beauty_815 :sick02: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovedwallflower Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 usually when that happens i find that even if they are zapped an amazing colour i cant connect with them and i adopt them out. its weird.. i have had VWN pets that i also didnt connect to :S ~Xandria 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherryv Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 In my first account I used to name my pets with names like sele_nita2 AWFUL. Nowadays I name them okay, I guess, and for pets I adopted I NEVER adopt a pet with an uncapitalised or numbered name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rojo Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I made my account ages ago and to this day, I am still upset that cuzzipara (my first created neopet) has an uncapitalized name. Ugh! If only I clicked on shift! But I love her way too much to let her go for something as trivial as that. Maybe TNT will create a name change token or something like that? That would be kind of cool. feonix4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcticsun Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I hated the name I gave to my Shoyru at first, but it's grown on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakabato Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Well, I dressed my Shoyru as an aviator, but I don't feel like making him a part-time fighter either. Although yeah, I wish I had a better name for him too.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dummydumpty Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Now that I'm older, I give more thoughts about how I name any account I get. I had numbers and underscore with all lowercase letters on my first Neopets account. I think I might be tempted to get rid of a badly named pet if I didn't invest much. I made my account ages ago and to this day, I am still upset that cuzzipara (my first created neopet) has an uncapitalized name. Ugh! If only I clicked on shift! But I love her way too much to let her go for something as trivial as that. Maybe TNT will create a name change token or something like that? That would be kind of cool. A name token would be a great idea. I'm surprised they don't have that yet actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penguin88 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I found my dream pet, with out the paint in the pound buuuuuuuuut his name is pooie I wish I could change it but maybe I can find a better named one soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil_minx Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I wish I could change my username. I still like my pets names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caro Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I think a name changing thing could be complicated. and I'm sure people would change things just to cause drama or something :< It's a shame that it's so hard to have nice pet names. Some people manage really nice names though! It would be cooler if that name generator thingy made nicer names. Pooie, that made me laugh! I dunno I think that's a cute name... kinda. :P I actually like my pets names (even the underscores/numbers) but I do nickname my pets as well since their names aren't all "name"y if that makes sense.

The Bandit Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I tend to agree. TNT should make a thing where if your account is ten years old or older, you can change one of your neopet's names each year... or something like that. Obviously you can only change it to a name that hasn't been taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilllisan Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I dislike my pet names very much, majlisan and Daniac231. But I've had both of them since day 1 of neopets, which is almost 7 years! I just can't give them away and I'm not sure if I would change the name if I had the opportunity. I know the names are awful, but it just wouldn't be the same without them :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
