Name That Pet: Khaja’s Bear
Final name: Skittels
This episode of Name That Pet is brought to you by Faeldray of Petaholics Anonymous, who’s young hunter Khaja is looking for a name for her bear.
Faeldray says:
I have a pet that I can’t for the life of me decide on a name for. It’s a diseased brown bear (more specifically Deathclaw) that my new troll hunter Khaja travelled all the way to Bloodmyst Isle for. It’s really strange that I picked him because I don’t like bears and I really don’t like the whole diseased look. Yet this bear is exactly the pet Khaja needed! She went through scorpions, windserpents, and tallstriders only to end up dissatisfied with them all. In my frustration to find her the perfect pet, I came across this guy in Petopia and figured why not?
There’s no type of name that I really want for him. It can be funny or gross or scary or whatever.
As for who Khaja is…well, I haven’t really played her enough to get a sense of personality from her. One thing is for sure, she talks with that Jamaican accent or whatever it is that trolls talk like. You know, like “Stay away from da voodoo, mon”. I love that accent!
Here’s Khaja with her bear! (Click on the thumbnail for a better view.)
So … whaddya think? What’s a good name for Khaja’s bear?
Update: Faeldray has a summary post on her blog. I think she has plenty of options to choose from, so let’s give her a chance to pick one now. :>

Epicdemic, Grisly (Grizzly), “Ursus Horribilis”-Scientific name of Grizzly bear, another name for grizzly is “Silvertip” cuz of the silver on the bump on its back. Maybe Tarnish or Corroded. Cat, Otter, Bear, CareBear, Dontcarebear…Bahr?
Going with a slight troll-esque theme possibly for some reason the name “Ungraya” comes to mind. Pronounced “Oon-Gray-Yah”…other than that, I got nothin’!
I would say “Yamaan”, if you like the troll accent.
Deathclaw perhaps? *wink*
Hmm… female troll… diseased bear…
“Pretty” “Tethcler” (I dunno why, made that one up).

Stick with something related to diseases, like Withered, Leprosy, Rotten, or Curdle. Or, go for the ironic look and pick “Cuddles.”
Here’s a few suggestions:
1. Khadaver
2. Bearenstein
3. DK (or Decay if you think people will be oblivious to the reference.)
4. Little John (From Disney’s version of Robin Hood.)
5. Wakawaka (Saying made famous by Fozzie Bear of the Muppets.)
I also like the name “Swipe” :-)
Swipe reminded me of a possible name…”Yoink!”
Yoink = to thieve…to swipe…to steal thine goodz! :P
Winniedadead! if its 2 long long Deadmon or Deacer
Rabid
A friend named her diseased wolf Scurvy.
you already said it yourself the perfect name VOODOO
maybe you can name it fester or something, no relationto the adams family
BaronSamedi. [Or just Samedi.]
Jim.
How about Skittles, Frolic, Pooch, Hungry, Shake, Froyd, or Thomas?
Pooh
Shardik
A huge bear, that ends up being worshipped, featuring in a book by the author of Watershipdown (who’s name, for the life of me, I can’t remember).
@ #20: Shardik is also a giant cyborg-bear which guards one of the time beams in stephen kings famous “gunslinger” books.
How about grungie, or Sludge, Ooze, How about a darker adeptation of Fozzy…..OZZY! Ozzy rules.
Apt names:
Poxy, Wormy, Wormsy, Itchy, Ribsy
Ironic names:
Baby, Sweetling, Precious, Happy, Cuddlebear
Scabs
It’s appropriate, ironic, disgusting, and cutesy.
“Prophecy” was a move from 1979 about Bears that where exposed to nuclar waste! and he looks just like one of them
Shardik.
It works well for a diseased bear if you’re a Dark Tower nerd like me. ;D
How about Tazdingo? That way Khaja actually says her pet’s name!
Hmm… Patches?
What can I say…he looks like a Bob to me.
TomWolf
If going for the obvious – Pestilence
If not – Kasdeya
Patches
well no offence to the druids out there
but how about ‘ExFeral’
Hey Lepidus, I still remember the scene in that movie where the bear/beast/monster swatted the kid in the sleeping bag and he exploded into a cloud of feathers and linen. That movie was so cheesey and so wicked. LOL
Dood may have something with the name “Skittles”. You could have an emote that says, “Taste the rainbow, b*tches!” LOL
I’d say… “ebonlaes” (translation: black death) or “landavarian”
With a name like Khaja, if you ever listened to 80′s music you just have to name it some form of googoo.
I would name it Plague.
how about penicillin?
Try Dceased,JahMal,SoulJah or Ninjah(it’s a troll pet,right)
Faeldray has a summary post on her blog. I think she has plenty of options to choose from, so let’s give her a chance to pick one now. :>
I just wanted to say thanks everyone for the name suggestions and to Mania for featuring Khaja. I’ll let everyone know when I’ve picked a name and what it is. :)
Maybe ‘Fang’?
Here’s my final decision on the bear’s name if anyone is interested.
Pox or winnie the diseased pooh bear
