Name That Pet: Weshezzi’s Pink Flamingo
Final Name: Fandango
In honor of the new theme here at Mania’s Arcania, this episode of Name That Pet involves Mazzranache, the famous pink flamingo.
Weshezzi the Troll of Baelgun writes:
I recently tamed the renowned ‘Mazzranache’ of Mulgore. I find this little Tallstrider quite adorable and humorous, but for the life of me, I’ve no clue what to name her. And, thus, I turn to you and your blog. Here is a pic of me and my buddy. :D
Let the suggestions begin!
Incidentally, I am rather flooded with requests for pet naming help, so please forgive me if it takes me a bit to get back to you.

I always appreciate tough names for the more perhaps “gentle” creatures.
I would dub thee:
Buster
I say you name it Tuscadero as in “Pinky Tuscadero” for those of you who remember her from the show Happy Days. (Even though Leather Tuscadero was hotter!)
Candy, as in Cotton. Or ImWithStupid lol jk
Several good suggestions already.
In the tough name for a gentle creature theme, I offer:
Butch
And in the candy-colored them, I offer:
Bubblegum
Well personally I’d just call him Fabulous!
On a serious note, Candy and Bubblegum seem like great names :-D
How about Lotto like the pink flamingo from the Florida Lottery!
Floyd of course!
Mine is named Chapstick (there’s a joke in there)
If you want the name nerfed (likely), you could go the pecker or some variation of that. My friend has one named Bubbagum, but he let poor bubba go a long time ago. Chapstick is actually suprisingly durable, and has managed to tank regular Black Morass (we had a pally and a disc priest as healers).
I get regular invites from another guild to Kara, and if Chapstick isn’t there it causes many a teary eye.
That and I love the screech =P Now they just need some special ability. I’m thinking a kick or something would be appropriate.
I vote Yardbird. 1) Reference to a great band. 2) Reference to those ugly plastic flamingos people put in their yard!
Kirby!!!
I nominate Bantam. She looks like a fighter.
Either Ranger, Outrunner, Beaks, Pinky, Polly, or Jack.
Some of these names are wonderful, guys. :) Keep them comin’!
I tend to keep the names of named mobs.
so I vote Mazzranache!
When i had one i named it MahnaMahna!
man i just leave my cats with the name cat i dont realy know what 2 name my pet i think bubblegum and candy r gay names or striper names and i just dont wanna see my cat stripin its fur off lol jjk hey if u play mok nathal u should give my guy a wisp same as fourm name
Hmmm…
Pinky? PrettyInPink? ChickenOfDeath? DiabloFlamingo?
I got one myself and named it PinkLady, like the drink ;-p It seems suiting for this cute and silly looking creature ;)
My vote is for the one up there who said “Tuscadero”. Might be fun seeing if some of the older folks playing the game get it.
Well .. Pink? :) At least that’s the name of my BE huntress’ Mazzranache (”Rosa” in German language).
I named mine Flaminka
A feminized version of Flamingo.
btw, I no longer have her, so feel free to use it.
Maybe Mazza or Mazz. Or… Hilery. ( how the heck did I think of that?!)
Shoot, man, now I want to get a mazzaranache on my 70 hunter.
Cool pet!
Well, my mom’s hunter has this pet, and hers is named Smooch. She probably won’t mind if you use that name, hehe.
I named mine Floyd, though I can’t claim that name as my own idea. I <3 my Humar (BlackTooth) so I don’t think I’ll level him up. Feel free to use the name if you want.
I named mine Thumb, because he’s not a Pinky :D
Mine was named Magenta.
Chewy, because he looks like a chewing gum
I really think squawky, because of that sound they make when you tell them to attack or growl :)
I like sly or Glamor, or maybe Kinky sounds like pinky
I like a lot of the names here! You could also go for Ruby or Cici (American Flamingo’s species name is “Phoenicopterus ruber”, in the order Ciconiiformes).
Of course, being a Baltimore native, I’m tempted to suggest “Waters” for the director John Waters and his controversial black comedy “Pink Flamingos”. But I think even describing the film in chat would be grounds for a ban…
I’m thinking ‘Blush’, due to the colour, or something that makes me think of pink, like ‘Cocktail’ or ‘Rouge’. Then again, you’d get dumb whispers asking ‘Y is ur pet named rogue?!?1′ Just my two copper. :D
Having Mazz as my own pet, I’d suggest the name I’m using for him:
Floyd
Top choices:
Floyd
Rouge
Bubblegum
Valentino (my own)
Keep it up guys.
I’d have to name it Miami. First thing that comes to mind when thinking of flamingos is Florida.
BTW, who drew that bird? The details are to fine to be a simple screen shot.
My dwarf hunter has one named Wellington (cos its a wader…)
He also wears a pink mageweave shirt to match it. He looks the campest dwarf in Ironforge.
/bux
how about bubba for a name? like bubba as in hubba bubba!
Coral maybe,
or CoralFeather if you want a tribal name
Mine is named Fabulous. Of course it doesn’t hurt to be the pet of a BE Hunter to make the name all the more fitting.
It seems everyone like Floyd, but that seems too common to me. Bubblegum seems cool, but by far the funniest is Thumb. I do everything for the comedy factor so that’d be the one I went with.
I used to have a Lost Torranche named Copernicus.
Why? Why the hell not?
I also recommend Ganknshank, Gnomekick, Viscera, Effluence, Nibbles, Pimpbird, Prettynpink, Menwearpink… with Tallstriders, the sky’s the limit!
i dont name my pets
I named mine Salmonella. Bwa ha ha…
Soccothrates
I am suggesting Gumdrop or Bubblegum :)
well…my boar is named Dog, so maybe “Cat” is suitable?
mmm how about Flamenco, or maybe Fandango….he looks splanish to me lol
i think u should name it hubbabubba:P
Divine
I had this pet early on. Not sure why McPhee popped into my head, but that was the name I chose. Just seemed to phit…er fit.
I’m naming her tomorrow. I’ll tell you what I name ‘er. :)
well?
ye, it’s now the 15th, please reply soon. i wanna know what you name it!
Initially I thought “floyd” but as I can see here it’s way too common.
As I love the Pink Floyd band I’m thinking about a related name as Barrett, Gilmour, UmmaGumma, Mason, Wright, Pulse, Waters, Syd, Eugene, Numb, Wall, DarkSide, Animal….
Sorry, a bit late!
I named her Fandago!
Fandago? Or do you mean Fandango?
I’m be retarded 4 a second and put this put here Barbie!!!
and put this here*
Fandango*
When I got my own Tallstrider he humerously reminded me of a duck, thus I named him Ducky. Fickle little thing he was too.
Sadly, Ducky is not with me anymore but I do suggest naming your hot pink Tallstrider something he/she reminds you of or name it after one of your favorite characters in a book, movie, etc.
I named mine Jellybeans :) im a female be hunter :)
