Hi. I’m a Dwarf Hunter who raids a lot, but I enjoy the RP part of WoW sometimes too. Recently I got a Wind Serpent pet and I just can’t find a good name for it. My Dwarf’s name is Granite, he’s got a bear named Marble (my first pet) and a cat named Sandstone. I would like some kind of a rock-type name for my pet, to fit with the other pets. If you guys could help that would be great. Thanks!
Short and to the point! (Just like a dwarf …) So what rock-based names can we come up with for this lovely sinuous serpent?
First thing that came to mind when I saw it was “Cobalt”. “Sodalite” would work too, with the touches of white and pink on the pet’s wings. :)
Quartz…
Yeah, I’ve got to say Quartz as well…
Or perhaps Opal?
Just the shiny shiny Wind Serpent skin deserves something vaguely sparkly.
Basalt, Onyx, Quartzite, Gneiss all have color schemes that could fit to that Wind Serpent.
opal=Gemstone, usually white.
titan=giant
zest=bursting with energy
What about…
Sapphire, Zircon, Lazuli, Opal, or Topaz?
That’s all I got. :)
also dino from flinstones
Howbout Cobalt? It is the only blue rock or metal (non-gem) I can think of.
Well ifs its rocks you want here you go Cobalt, Basalt, Dolostone, Mudstone, Shale, Obsidain, Quartz, Lutite, Arenite, or Rudite.
Azurite(or Azur) or Lazurite or even Crystal=P All are associated to eachother.
Lazurite and Azurite are both blue crystals with Azurite being more deeply blue. And that windserpent model always reminds me of Crystal.
Idd call hinm…Akasha
Cobalt, onyx, Sapphire, Topaz, quartz, Jet, Coal, slate, shale, and Magnacite.
Well, naming a pet that flies after a rock can be difficult, since rocks don’t often fly. There is one instance though, and thats when they fall from space.
So…
Comet
Meteorite
Meteor
Meteorain (thats two ff7 references today!)
Asteroid
Planetoid
Nova
How about Golem….the mythological being thats basically a living rock.
or simply…..Rocky or The Rock…sry not good at names lols
what about ”aquamarine”?
Slate or Flint.
how bout sapphire?
I have to say, Azurite and Cobalt are great names
If I ever get one, I’d call it: -
Quetzalcoatl
The Feathered Serpent in Aztec mythology/religion.
Molten as in Molten lava im pretty sure molten is the rocks in it
Dolomite!
I like Slate or Cobalt
Lapis or Lazuli
Turquoise?
…its a rock…aqua green/blue
SAPHIRE is so a good name !!!! i love it !!!!!
I’ve named all the Wind Serpents I’ve tamed Quetzalcoatl.
But since you want a “stoneish” name, I’d suggest Quartzalcoatl =P
Azurite sounds perfectly perfect to me.
Hematite?
Obsidian? Maybe it’s just me, but he looks blue-black more than blue in the screenie.
Hemitite…..you may want to check the spelling onthat one. Its the stone that looks like metle when its polished.
I like Cobalt…I dunno, it just has a nice ring to it for a Wind Serpent..

Would be a good place to look :)
I wanted one of them wind serpants as well.. But the bugged flying motion after it’s tamed was a turn off for me. :(
How about Feldspar?
Well, after looking over what people suggested, I like the name Azurite. It seems like a perfectly fitting name for my Wind Serpent. Thanks all! =D
lol what about Zinc
i gotta say quartz too!!! that name just totally defines your windserpent i think
Bait
For the same I had a lion named Aslan, becasue he dies for me.
Saphiron
name him shocky
or buzzlighter =P
SexLeg or Biscuit!
Skree = loose rocks
u can us the name Aquamarine for the aqua serpent look or Cobalt star or Cobalt
wing
I vote for Kyanite.
Kyanite is a sort of denim blue and white gem, and is very close to the color of those windserpents.
Also Iolite, Indicolite, or Azurite might be good choices. ‘Sapphire’ is so…well… “done”, after all.
I like Azurite, Aquamarine, Cobalt, Saphire, LapisLazuli, all are relitively blue gems/rocks.
I second the vote for Lazuli. Lapis would also be good, but Lazuli just sounds cool.
my choices are damascus or wootz both good earthy names
sorry to say my main’s name ;p but uh.. sapphire or sapphires :D
Pebbles! :)
