Mascot Namin'

[Tyler]

Hello Everyone :D

Allan with Castlemelody created a very very nice creature for our mascot which we will release soon.

I'm the worst with names, and hoping some of y'all can come up with some comical names that fits him?

Much appreciated it :)

[Mikey]

upon first sight, i thoguht it should be "chimpy"

perhaps you could name him.. Cronk sounds good.

[SoftWareRevue]

He has a monkeyish face about him.

Gimpy?

Well . . . riddle me this . . .


What's he supposed to represent?

Good?

Bad?

Indifferent?

[Tyler]

Comedy. :P

[Jan]

Tech help is comedy?

[Aussie Bob]

Tech help is comedy?
For some <insert business here> it could be. :D

[Tyler]

Tech help is comedy?

No, but he is supposed to be. His "goal" if you will, is to try and lighten the atmosphere. Hence why we need a rather comical and unique name.

I'm useless with names, but this is a great thing to run a competition if the forum is pretty active.

It reminds me of something I'd see in a Sprite advert. :iunno:

[SoftWareRevue]

Having the members of the forum where you're going to be using the mascot get involved in the naming process sounds like a good plan.

Cuz I still think he looks like a Tyler. :s

[A_Jelly_Doughnut]

Maybe "ahnold"? Looks fairly buff for a blue ... creature.

[Doug]

Wow, that's sort of scary. Cool, yet scary. :P I like Cronk. Mikey's right with that one.

[Papoloko]

I don't know, but it look to me more like the "creature from the black lagon", having a hard time, that became a crack addited homeless creature and now is stealing a tv to pay for his fix :joker2:

[Dave]

I don't have a name, but it is a great graphic. Nice forums too :)

[Odd Fact]

Filderbarg

Stickum

toofhurty

Filderbarg

Stickum

toofhurty

For those who don't know the background of these words, here it is:

A filderbarg is a bag that was once used as an airline carry-on bag to transport animals such as golphers, mascots, and yes, squirrels on board illegally. It's no longer used for this purpose because airlines have discovered its use, but it's been credited (or blamed) for increasing the species types and populations of some these animals in some areas. The Great Lakes area in particular experienced an animal population change because of the use of filderbargs. In the US states and Canadian provinces in this area, "Filderbarg!" is an expression sometimes heard at the sight of these animals. Dennis has used it more than once lately. :P

Stickum is not only a substance that causes adhesion, but it's evolved into use as a verb to mean "bring together." Example: "I'm gonna stickum that team with a mascot" or "Forum meet-ups are a time to stickum members and let them meet in person."

Toofhurty is what children say when they have a toothache. They may also say it when they're learning to tell time and it's a couple of hours past lunch. The first meaning has been extended to a general physical or emotional ache or pain that we try to relieve. For example, "She's feeling toofhurty because she just got laid off from her job, so I'm taking her out for lunch."

Good choices, all of them. :dancin:
