Just a little fun for when you have time to kill

[note: i am a traditional rater, so please don't get offended. i give scores by how the name goes with best with the cat. also, my names are supposed to fit my character and be lyrical, not be pretty. source: prefixes | suffixes]
riverwish: [2/10] 'river' is the name of one of the main four founders, and let alone an entire clan. it is extremely offensive to name a cat after that; it's as if you are saying that this particular cat is greater than river clan. now, 'wish', it has no meaning whatsoever. if she is quiet and doesn't talk much, how would the leader know of such wishes she makes to starclan. it doesn't say anything about her, nothing about her skills, her looks, or her personality.
suggestions: silvercloud- 'silver' is for the color of her pelt, and 'cloud' is for her open ways to starclan. this also works if she is kind and patient. | silverfur/stripe- 'silver' is for the color of her pelt, and 'fur/stripe' is for her looks since she does not seem to have any skills.
bramblesong: [4/10] this is a semi-tradition name. it fits her prefix, which are given for their looks, but 'song' only make the name sound 'pretty' and not related to the cat at all. sure, having a pleasant voice is always nice to hear, but you aren't exactly being named after your skills- which is something you should be very proud of. you can’t sing down your enemies, or sing to attract prey.
suggestions: bramblefur/pelt- you didn't exactly mention a skill, therefore she would be named after her personality.
briarleaf: [6/10] this is a misplaced traditional; the name itself is structured enough to fit a cat, but the description does not go with the name. 'briar' is for a brown tabby cat, not for a grey-brown cat. and it seems as though you given her 'leaf' due to the fact that she has green eyes? it's not exactly very prideful to be named after your eyes; it's more of an honor to be named after a skill you hold in which you help the clan with. also, 'leaf' is a suffix used only for medicine cats- and that is only if they are extremely talented with herbs.
suggestions: mousefur/pelt/stripe- you didn't exactly mention a skill, therefore she would be named after her personality.
halfheart: [5/10] the prefix 'half' is never given to a cat, let alone a kit; but, although it can be a name-change prefix, it is usually followed by either 'face' or 'tail, or anything related to an injury. 'heart' does fit this cat quite well for a warrior suffix; it's for cats that are outspoken are invariably self-confident, and self-confidence that often encourages trust and respect from the others around them.
suggestions: cedarheart- 'cedar' is for his dark tabby pelt, and 'heart' for his personality. halftail/ear- a name change for his injuries.
my cats:
appleflower: a light golden molly with a faintly mottled pelt and bright green eyes. although she has no notable skills, she contributes to the clan by helping new queens care for their kits, and is known for her motherly personality for those around her.
spiderfang: a young brown brindled tom with deep copper eyes. he is extremely talented for both hunting and fighting. although his skills are very useful for his clan, his short temper and sharp tongue does get him into trouble with other cats.

( nice to see another traditional namer! i also try to follow the traditional guidelines, so my names are not lyrical and simply describe my characters. )
appleflower - 10/10. not only does this name describe her skills and personality perfectly, the prefix and suffix sound very cute together! this is a lovely name.
spiderfang - 10/10. again, this name describes the character fairly well. -spider is actually my favorite prefix and i think it works really well with -fang, giving the name almost a dark feeling without being too angsty.
my names
pigeonfur - a small, plump, blue-gray she-cat with green eyes. while she doesn't possess any noticeable skills, she is hard-working and generally pleasant to be around. her favorite clan duty is assisting the elders.
honeycloud - a golden tabby tom with amber eyes. he's gentle and has a calming presence, although he tends to daydream instead of focus on hunting. average skills.
aspentail - a tall dappled gray tom with soft yellow eyes. has a thirst for adventure and often irritates the senior warriors with his energy. with his strong legs, he is excellent at climbing and balancing in trees.

[note: i am a traditional rater, so please don't get offended. i give scores by how the name goes with best with the cat. also, my names are supposed to fit my character and be lyrical, not be pretty. source: prefixes | suffixes]
fireflower: [9/10] i absolutely love this name. the only thing that i am a bit iffy about, is that the prefix 'fire' is for solid ginger cats. it's acceptable for this cat to have white patches, but they must be small and not that many. oh and i would like to add that there's a one in third chance for a female cat to be full ginger. other than that, this name is perfect! c:
suggestions: bright/patchflower- 'bright' and 'patch' for her ginger and white pelt.
slugstorm: [10/10] this is such a lovely name! it fits her perfectly.
suggestions: none
tawnybird: [5/10] the prefix fits her nicely, but 'bird' isn't traditional (as you know). there are suffixes that can fit her just as well. i mean, cats don't exactly fly, and her suffix is quite weird since she has other skills you mentioned other than climbing trees.
suggestions: tawnytail- 'tawny' for her pelt, and 'tail' for her balance, agility, and tree climbing skills. tawnywhisker- 'tawny' for her pelt, and 'whisker' for her hunting skills.
tigerblaze: [5/10] i do see how 'blaze' would fit this cat, but it just doesn't work for me. ;w; 'blaze' is like fire or a thin marking, and frankly, this cat doesn't have any of these things. i wouldn't name a cat after their personality if they have skills, and although some may say 'fighting like fire' is a skill, but i believe that they're are basically saying their skills will destroy those around him, and no one wants to be named after that.
suggestions: tigerclaw- 'tiger' for his pelt, and 'claw' for his fighting abilities. prefixes: 'cypress', 'fire', or 'red' suffixes: 'claw'
my cats:
appleflower: a light golden molly with a faintly mottled pelt and bright green eyes. although she has no notable skills, she contributes to the clan by helping new queens care for their kits, and is known for her motherly personality for those around her.
robinnose: small red-brown tom with a white chest and dark copper eyes. he's known to be quite a feisty cat with little patience for those who do not pay attention, but does hide a warm side to him. this warrior is one of the best trackers in his clan, hence his suffix.

appleflower: 10/10 I really love this name, but I'm not sure if warriors know what an apple is exactly? I might be wrong though
Robbinnose: 9/10 I find this name very cute! It suits his personality very well.
My cats:
Dawndust - a redish she-cat with little specks of brown
Moonfall - A white she-cat with blue-black legs, snout and tail
Oceanpebble - A small gray tome with little white flecks on his tail

Dawndust: 7/10 - I like the prefix and I understand how the suffix works with the cat's appearance, but the name is still a bit weird in my opinion.
Moonfall: 8/10 - The name sounds nice, but I don't think the prefix 'Moon-' should be used because it is also thought of to be sacred to the cats. I like how her name matches her appearance.
Oceanpebble: 7/10 - The cats don't know what the word 'Ocean' means, and they call the actual ocean the Sundrown Place. The name is a bit too weird sounding in my opinion, but I think it matches his appearance well.
My Cats-
Antnose - Black tom with yellow eyes. He's an adventurous cat with a knack for tracking and hunting things, but his tendency to gossip about others often leads cats to avoid him.
Newtstream - Silver tom with black spots and amber eyes. He's good at swimming and is very agile, and is known for being a stubborn cat.
Smallface - Long-haired small white she-cat with green eyes. She's a vain cat who finds a sadistic joy in leading love-struck toms on before rejecting them, but she doesn't have any other notable traits besides her beauty.

(Quick warning, I am NOT a traditional namer, all these are just my opinion)
Softnose: 6/10 I really like the prefix! its very nice, and sweet although I don't really think it fits with the suffix nose, it just makes weird images in my head.
Fawnlight: 8/10 It sounds really cool! Though it would sound better on a warrior than a medicine cat....
Snowdove: 9/10 It seems really pretty and sweet. The prefix and suffix sound surprisingly nice togethe!
My cats:
Rainsong: Pretty silver she-cat with a green and a blue eye. She is very sweet, polite and caring, especially towards younger cats. She is more of a hunter than a fighter.
Runningstream. Grey tom with a silver stripe running down his back and amber eyes. He is swift, cunning and VERY loyal. He is a strong fighter, and a good hunter.

Semi-traditional namer here, don't be offended!
Sunblaze 8/10: I like it! There aren't many cats in the series with the prefix 'sun', with exception of Sunstar and Sunfish. However, I'm not fond of the suffix '-blaze' mainly because I despise Lionblaze from the series, so sorry :c
Duskpool 6/10: It really depends on the appearance of the cat, because I imagine him/her to be a black cat with amber eyes or a ginger cat with yellow eyes. Any other type of pelt doesn't really suit this name, unless they are a tortoiseshell/calico, then I suggest for the suffix to be '-dapple' or '-spots'.
Starwhisker 3/10: In the series it's considered very disrespectful for a cat to have 'star' as a prefix. That name is reserved for leaders and of course, StarClan. I suggest names like Whitewhisker, Mousewhisker, Rainwhisker as different options depending on the cat's pelt. If a cat with this name became leader, they'd be called Starstar, which looks and sounds very unappealing.
______________________________________________________
Cloudflight: A white she-cat with silver tabby markings that get darker around her legs. She has bright blue eyes and is very agile. She is well known for her hunting skills and has worked out a method for hunting in trees, which makes her a very notable squirrel hunter.
Badgerstorm: A black tom with a white muzzle and underbelly, as well a white tail tip and yellow eyes. He isn't a very good hunter, but makes up for it in his strength in battle, with the brutality that equals to that of a badger. After losing his mate, a darkness awakens inside him and he starts training with the Dark Forest.
Puddlefoot: A lithe, fluffy dark grey tom with darker flecks along his face and spine. He has dark brown eyes and unusually large paws. He is often mocked by his clan for not being very useful at anything, but he has a talent at staying up at night when he is told to guard camp without getting tired and is strangely talented at fishing- despite his clan being forest hunters.
Leafbreeze: Light tabby she-cat with dark green eyes, she was a warrior before she became a very talented medicine cat. The previous medicine cat died during an attack from a neighbouring clan, and he didn't have an apprentice. So, the clan was in a nervous ruin. Leafbreeze took it upon herself to learn the ways of a medicine cat on her own, accompanied with her talent at hunting, so she could help her clan rebuild in both ways.
