Let's not get started on Billystorm or darn Macgyver either. I don't even understand the latter; did he choose to keep his kittypet name or is his 'human' name "Mac" and the prefix is "gyver"? What on earth is a gyver, anyways?

While we're on the topic of terrible names, I remember that I once saw a troll fanfic tomcat named Gaypaw. It wasn't even a typo of Graypaw or something, either; he was a legit Gaypaw. Thankfully it isn't a LGBTQ+ slur; apparently they were named that when their mother thought they were 'happy all the time'.

Goodness, Grasspaw, Slightpaw, probably named for a white dash on his chest, Perchpaw the Second, in the same Clan as the first one and the ultimate one: Featherpaw, apprentice of Crowfeather. Oh the bitter irony.

I'm just sitting here watching you guys grumbling about nonsensical names rubbing my hands together and going "my work here is done".

I can maybe understand some of those names, but Whiskernose?

Your traditionalness has rubbed off on us Acraii

[shortstop]

XD I think it has. I'm usually one for, as Arcaii puts it, lyrical naming, but I do like the organization of traditional naming c:

Oh- Will still have my- Fangfeather- and Crimsonfox- they are my babies- The fang part is now explained by as a kit he was known as Greykit and grew to resent his mother since she never wanted them (accident pregnancy) and she died before their apprenticeship. He told the leader he wanted a new name to erase all connections with his mother and Fang- came to be do to his freakishly large teeth.

anywho- I also don't mind some odd but reasonable names...but Billystorm? perchpaw? *facepaws*
