   I love wolves… I’ve only ever had one, a level 1 worg from deathknell that’s been with my alt for 49 lvls… his proud name is:

   Lycan

3. Mania - August 22nd, 2008 @ 3:39 pm UTC

   Cenisas: Oddly Lycan was the name of a hunter alt I rolled just to tame wolves. Unfortunately she didn’t make it through the alt purge of 2005.

   Kristy: When I remember, I pre-write and schedule Name That Pet posts. But in this case you’re right — I’m up. And I’ll get back to work now, promise. *grin*

   I don’t know what it is . . . when I see I wolf like that I always think of “Trollbones.” Don’t ask me why . .

   Okami (“wolf” in Japanese)
   Kirei (“beauty” or “beautiful” in Japanese)
   Tenshi (“angel” in Japanese)
   Uta (“song” in Japanese – because your song enchanted her and for her furious howl ability)
   Sorei (“magnificent” in Japanese – closest word I could think of to “magestic”)
   Megami (“godess” in Japanese)

7. Niabi - August 22nd, 2008 @ 5:59 pm UTC

   Sorry, one more …

   Tsuki (“moon” in Japanese)

   Boris wolf, short (Russian, Bulgarian, Slovene, German – Male)

    Raijin – thunder god in japanese
    I had a wolf once with the same skin and called it that.. gotta love wolves ^^

11. Luke - August 22nd, 2008 @ 7:17 pm UTC

    Call it Mononoke, from princess Mononoke, she is the human princess of the wolves, its what my wolf is called ^^

12. Kamalia - August 22nd, 2008 @ 7:40 pm UTC

    Great story! My Night Elf hunter’s main pet, ‘Kibbles’, was a Rema as well. Here’s a couple names for you:

    Inari: The Japanese god/goddess of rice. The female version is a woman with a fox’s tail, and is also considered the goddess of swords.
    Zyanya: Means “Forever, Always” in Nahuatl. (A Native American language)
    Thandeka: “Beloved” in Zulu (An African language, I think…)

    I also second Niabi’s suggestion of ‘Tsuki’, ‘Tenshi’, and ‘Kirei’.
    Good luck! =)

13. Seveil - August 22nd, 2008 @ 7:51 pm UTC

    Kikita, Maya, Kairial

14. Drakkena - August 22nd, 2008 @ 8:10 pm UTC

    If you’re looking for a few names there are some that I can suggest. Besides Mononoke you could call it after Moro, the princess adopted wolf mother in the movie.

    But here are some others that I found while looking about =3

    I have a black wolf just like that! I named him ‘Night’ because he held so much hidden beauty, just like the night sky!

17. Seidouyumi - August 22nd, 2008 @ 10:10 pm UTC

    Japanese names. . .

    Shi- Death. It can also mean- four, poem, teacher and master.

    Meiyo- Honor.

    Kaze- Wind.

    Tatakai- War.

    Shinegami or Shishin (Gami and Shin both mean god in Japanese)mean the spirit or god of death.

    Non-Japanese.

    CuChulainn- Irish hero and warrior.

18. Luna - August 22nd, 2008 @ 11:16 pm UTC

    Congratulations on taming one of the most beautiful wolves in WoW! I used to have Snarler myself, who uses the same model. I named him Fenris. Not very original, but I felt that it suited him.

    Here are a couple more Japanese suggestions:

    Tanrei – Grace, beauty, elegance
    Sutamina – Stamina, energy (these wolves are always moving and give the impression of boundless energy, unlike the worgs)
    Mikomi – Hope (I don’t know why, but it seems right somehow)

    Good luck naming your wolf!

19. Aaralyn - August 23rd, 2008 @ 2:22 am UTC

    Here’s some stuff I came up with:

    Sable = black
    Sade = sweetly singing
    Sachi = colorful wisdom
    Rajani = the dark
    Rakesh = ruler of the day of the full moon
    Ramiro = powerful in battle
    Rajanikant = beloved by the night
    Okath = born in the rain
    Salvador = saviour
    Nakia = unconquerable

20. Aaralyn - August 23rd, 2008 @ 2:28 am UTC

    By the way I just remembered, I once tamed a wolf like that. Called him Demonshade.

28. tynan - August 24th, 2008 @ 6:54 pm UTC

    i agree with wulfric from the long list of wolf names
    1.cause wolves are one of the greatest support pets (if not the best)
    2. people need to b reminded of how good they are in support
    3.cause it sounds cool
    4. it just matches a wolf with black skin
    5. YOU SHOULD DO IT

    if thats not enough then u b crazy i am a 66 hunter on uldum i also have rema and named it wulfric for those 5 reasons u should to remind every1 how great wolves are

    No mercy for the weak
    No pity for the old
    No sympathy for the dead
    -my motto

29. Ghostlyarrow - August 25th, 2008 @ 10:48 am UTC

    Morgim, after the one from Narnia.

30. Nalain - August 25th, 2008 @ 3:39 pm UTC

    Tiarna! I love that name!=D from now on, my Wolf shall be known as Tiarna. Thank you Penumra ^_^

    But I was wondering, does it mean anything in a particular language? No matter what, I love it =)

    Thank you to everyone who suggested=)

31. Luna - August 25th, 2008 @ 3:56 pm UTC

    Lovely choice! I just googled “Tiarna” and found this. Maybe it’s what Penumbra was thinking when suggesting the name.

    Russian- Fairy Queen; Graceful princess; Rainbow.

    Sounds reasonable to me.
