Final Name: Cirrus
Today’s Name That Pet request comes from Casdia, a dwarf hunter from Stonemaul with a new and very special wind serpent pet.
My hunter Casdia is an ambitious dwarf on the Stonemaul realm. She has a love of all things rare and beautiful. Having recently released her faithful boar Giblet back into the wilds to roam, and finished training her beautiful, yet fierce red lynx to be a merciless fighter, she was looking for another beast to raise in her spare time. After some searching, she found herself in the wild land of Feralas, slaying the gentle sprite dragons in search of a phantom, the great Arash-ethis. However, after hours of looking, with the beast still eluded her grasp; she felt an inkling from afar. Another creature was calling her name. This creature, though just as rare, was younger, and more eager to join her.
She arrived in the dark and damp of Duskwallow Marsh, following the beast’s call, and there amongst the murk saw the shining white scales of Hayoc. At once she knew this young serpent would be her new companion. She whispered to the beast, luring him to her side, tempting him with a piece of fish, and at last, he was hers. She took him at once to foreign lands, teaching him new skills and building his strength, but could not think of what to call such a magnificent creature.
I’m on a PVP realm and am a marksman hunter and, as stated, I love rare and beautiful things. My current pets are Wuff the Grimtotem Spirit Guide, Zukauri the Springpaw Stalker, and my new windserpent. I don’t actively roleplay, but I do have a backstory behind my characters that I keep track of. I have a mixture of serious and goofy names for my pets: my previous pets were Azrael the Ghost Saber, Squiggle the serpent, Cake the crab, Zunna the wolf, and Zukauni the teal tiger (Rak’shiri) to give an idea of how I name my pets. I think I’d like a more serious name for this pet, but am open to goofier suggestions as well.
I’ve always loved Hayoc — probably in part because he’s always been a problem for me to find. But I’m sure we can find the perfect name for Casdia’s new pet.
Pretty color, /cheer for not getting an outlands thunderserpent.
I would suggest…
Asheia
Shaara
something with “sh” as it sounds, I dunno, windy and smooth.
or,
Wintergale
Winterstorm
Good hunting
Silverwing? – I’m a fan of the combo names… Alternatively, some kind of snake or dragon mythological name? I’m drawing a blank tho.
I do find the windserpents remind me of Hiss from Robin Hood (ok they’ve wings, but you know what I mean), so that could be a goofy name. Unless people don’t make the connection, in which case: /yawn
Man, I suck at this!
Zassaliss
Harssacss
Sesstra
These names brought to you by the Redwall book Triss and the letter S
That is a very beautiful serpent there, Casdia. Here are some names I thought of to play on her white color, and her personality I can see in her.
Whisper
SnowWhite
Aerie
Shyera
Isis
Ivory
Gwyn (welsh for white, fair or blessed)
Luna (means moon in latin)
Eirwen (means white snow in Welsh)
That’s all I can think of for now, Hope that helps!!!
Hmm how about Stormy? Ya know, because it’s a WIND serpent? Get it? heh heh
so far I like Shaara and whisper from yall. I was also thinking about Frostwhisper or frostwing. I’m still thinking though.
Cirrus – after those white, wispy, high altitude clouds. The word has lots of snaky sibilants too.
I quite like Cirrus above.
From Mythology, Aztec god Quetzalcoatl and many other names in that pantheon.
Medusa/Gorgon (though, I think they are better suited to serpents);
Quetzalcoatl (not sure if it fits);
Wyvern (English origin)
Zomok (hungarian winged serpent-dragon);
Lindworm (scandanavian);Mireu (Korean Sky Dragon)
Smok (slavic dragon)
Zahara, Pearl, Isibis, or Evrae
You could name him Goa’uld ( from Stargate SG1) or Apep, a giant snake who fought the egiptean sun god ( can’t remember his name at the moment)
I think you might just have a good name hidden in your description:”She found herself in the wild land of Feralas, slaying the gentle sprite dragons in search of a ‘phantom’” I think Phantom would be a lovely and chilling name for your serpent! If that doesn’t seem to fit with you, here’s a couple more names:
•Tatsu – The Japanese word for dragon
•Apsu – A male water dragon in myth, mate of Tiamat
•Typhon – A dragon from Greek myth
•Ryo – Dragon
•Tiamat – A female dragon-like creature in myth, said to be the mother of things such as dragons, sphinxes, storms, scorpians, ect. The mate of Apsu
•Galeru – A rainbow serpent in Australian myth (Goes well with Kalseru)
•Kalseru – A rainbow serpent goddess from aboriginal myth
•Tanis/Tanit/Tanith – Means “Lady of the Serpents” or “Serpent Lady”
I also like the name Ghostwind, whatta yall think?
Other than that, my possible list is:
Cirrus
Shaara
Frostwing
Frostwhisper
Frostwind
Zassali
I tamed Arash-ethis and named him Shirohana. It means white flower in Japanese. I’m very happy with the name, and even though I decided it’s a boy, he said I call him hana (flower) if I want to. ^_^
It’s a very good name!
Stryke, Slyph,
I have a sperpent named slyph i think it fits the snaketype pets
Tamed me the same flying snake a while ago, and only 1 name made sense to me.
ZEUS the god of all gods, throwing his bolts of lightning at all those small pesky mobs on earth.
I had one of these back in the day. Named him “Voldemort”, unoriginally.
Usually I go straight for the mythological names, but I really can’t think of that many for snakes.
“Cecrops” is the only one that comes to mind, the name of the mythical first king of Athens, who had snake legs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cecrops_I
There’s also “Typhon”, I suppose, the super-powerful beast that fought the Greek gods and was eventually defeated by Zeus.

I had one too, named it Momo. Buuut I don’t think that will fit here, so I suggest: Kota, Auron, Remus, and Snowblind.
I totally second Cirrus, that’s so pretty!!!
If you want something snake-like, go for Slssessems. That’s a name I found in a science fiction book.
Or you could name him “Ancestor” or “Spirit” because it’s ghostly.
Or “Illusion” or “Mirage”?
I have Hayoc as well, named him Seraph, after the race of angels, Seraphim. Who’s name literally means Flying flaming serpent. Thought it fit fairly well.
I love the white wind serpant :3 Mines named Raijin, means god of lightning :P I found it fitting for my girl. ^^;
Azzere(always DID like that name)
stay with Hayoc?
Since all windserpents look like Quetzalcoatl, the mythic aztec god, why not name it so? :D
Hmmm im not too shure lets see what names i like
Azzera
kalezza
whateva (Lol)
Snowfall(since hes white)
and thats all i have of idea’s hope it help’s
I think Cirrus might be more suited, since it’s not too serious but not too goofy (a little on the serious side). Seraph/Seraphim/Serafini(?) are also nice.
Or you could try:
Cloud
Fluffy (as a cloud)
Opal or Pearl (both are white gems, of which Dwarves are fond.)
Barleybeer or Honeymead or Whiskeywhite or Vodkawhite or Coors or Bud ……. :)
I named mine Bailong (the white dragon king in chinese mythology). I simply couldn’t find a more appropriate name :-) That said I like Cirrus and Phantom a lot.
