I recently tamed one of the Undead Boar from Eastern Plaguelands (I love how they charge. It rocks.) … but my naming skill have apparently vanished for a while.
I always use names that have meanings. My 70 Aqua Tiger (rare spawn Rak’shiri) is Avalanche, due to the cold. I have a Crab (Rare spawn Crusty the Red Crab) is Cakes. I’ve had Leviathan the snake. But this one … is difficult.
If anyone can help me find a good name for this guy, I want to keep him! Anything that has to deal with him beind undead … or Mythology … anything Fantasy-ish. Here’s a picture!
Go with “Ribsy”. I always thought boars should have vaguely cute names.
i think “NoEyes” is a great name for the undead boar. :)
Husk?
Porksaken?
Baconator?
“guina” (Elvish for undead, and by coincidence looks like ‘guinea’)
Altakarka (“Big Tusk”)
Wikipedia has an interesting section on boar mythology.
The Norse “Hildesvini” for ‘Battle Swine’ seems kind of appropriate.
Spoiled
ToughJerky? you know, after the food
FrankenFurter?
FrakenSwine?
I agree with Spoiled, great name :D maybe porkchops?? OOO Frakenswine is also good!!!
In the ‘undead’ theme, how ’bout Porktergeist?
I’m partial to “TipperGore” as a boar name… but that’s just me.
Frankenswine fa show!!!
All boars should be names MsPiggy. Thats what I use.
Carisma=Latin for charge
Baconstein
“Frankenswine” is great! ?No one has suggested “Rancid” yet . . .
My other half named her plagues swine
“Mouldy”
Also applicable.
BadPorkRoll
Samonella

I used to have one named Toht, after the creepy guy in Raider’s of the Lost Arc who’s face got melted. It also happens to be similar to the German word for Death “Tod”
Mooyang.
Means “Roast Pork” in Thai.
Hmmm, i like frankenswine, that was a great suggestion.
But how about…
Trichinosis
Wormy
Zomboar
Hampire
Hambone
Oh… how about Lokuloku? The unbreakable pig toy from Japan. It kinda has something in common with your Plagued Swine pet.
How about panic? I named my boar (bellygrub) panic cuz you kinda panic when you get charged lol. Or maybe Hades, the god of the underworld from greek mythology.
Oinkinator.. the terminator of boars
Boaring :P cause so many ppl got boars ?
Boaromir imo
Hey Kor, hehe.
Well for a name…
Cat, because most hunters have that name, hehe, maybe not fantasy-ish though… perhaps Socket? Rothoof? Rotsnout? Fester? Porkpox (pox from Polashuzz).
Hehe.
Bones
Frankenswine is too cute to pass up. Thanks a bunch Guys ^_^..oh and HI RYNO!! <3 Thanks Mania!
Rasher – the British word for a serving of bacon
I had one for a time when they first came out.
Its name was Forsaknbacon
;-)
Piglette. Get a friend w/a diseased bear named ‘Pouh’.
Well, i have that pet to, lvling atm ;) i named mine “Særimne” which is the boar in valhall that they eat every day and gets reborn the day after so they can eat it again. i find it a fitting name for a undead boar ;)
Apollo, greek god of the sun, cause your boar looks so sunshiney! =)
KHRYSAOR (or Chrysaor) was a son of the Gorgon Medousa. He was usually represented as giant, but may also have been conceived of as a winged boar, just as his twin brother Pegasos was a winged horse.
Torc is the Gaelic name for boar.
The Norse fertility god Freyr had a wild boar called Gullinbursti meaning ‘Golden mane’. Its bristles glowed in the dark, illuminating his path. Freyr’s sister, Freya rode her boar Hildesvini (‘Battle Swine’) into battle.
Ysgithyrwn – a mighty wild boar in Celtic legend.
Spider!!
(Spiderpig! Spiderpig! whover knows what a spiderpig does…)
How about Plagued, or Fester? :)
Since I never used it, I am going to give you the ultimate name for your pet.
Rottingham
(Robin Hood: Men in Tights)
I always name my boars Porkchop xD
Since your name is Korrupted, how about “Purified?” XP
I had an undead boar for a time on my tauren huntress, Swiftclaw. Wanting to go with more of an RP name, I finally chose “Plaguehoof”.
I’d named a boar I once had as “Pigmatix”. Asterix/Obelix fans anyone?
OtherWhiteMeat
*Pumba* of course
Zomboar , !!!
“Soul”
His body may be dead, but his Soul will keep on living..
I had that boar, traded him for a Razzashi Serpent though.
Deathtusk? Since, well, its with the undead theme
I love FRANKENSWINE :)
pig name: I have only really once had a pig for an extended period of time. I called him Porkchop.
UnholyHam?
Crackling? (my fave part of a pork roast)
Still, Frankenswine is the best.
I would call him “Moribund”.
Volund, the name of the smith in norse lore.
Kakulukiya — Asterix and Obelix.. Haven’t read one of those in a while. I will have to get out the stash again^^
I do love reading those.
