Does your acct have more than one White Kitten? I noticed we have doubles (or more) of some pets. Of course, the first thing I did was cage up my doubles and auction them off.RallyC wrote:Since more info has risen up about the naming of pets I figure I'll share my thoughts on it. In more recent news it seems that pets are now account bound so all characters have the same pets. This is cool as it makes collecting time much shorter for multiple characters (once you get it with one char you don't have to farm for hours to get it again for another toon), however, there are some things I'm curious about. In the topic Preview of Pet Journal & Account Wide Collections by Quintessence there's the lineSo this raises the question: are all characters then sharing the same pets? To clarify, is my Hunter's white kitten going the share the name and LVL of my Druids white kitten? I wouldn't think it'd be this way as it takes away from the joys of having each character's pet be a little different and unique to the character that owns it. For example as I stated in the topic start I was considering naming the white kitten "Peacebloom." I guess I should have been more clear because what I meant was that's my Druid's name for that pet. My Hunter has a different personality so I was leaning to the name "Mouse" for her kitten. Yet if they are indeed sharing the same kitten I can't do this...- Atm, duplicate pets are combined into one that's available to all toons on your account. (Example: I have a Perky Pug on my druid and a Perky Pug on my shaman. I don't get two Perky Pugs. Instead they're combined and I only have access to one through the Pet Journal.)
Bellaryl, I named one of my hunter pet fireflies Serenity, so I didn't use it for the small one. I like to have them out together. I wonder why it wouldn't let you use Mephistopheles? My brother had a cat named Mephistopheles once. =^..^=Bellaryl wrote:I'm surprised that no one mentioned naming their Firefly "Serenity".
I named all my whelplings after gemstones, my dragonhawks after flowers, a few Firefly references, a few Dr Who references. Blizz wouldn't allow me to name my Feline Familiar "Mephistopheles", so I chose "Azreal". All my dino hatchlings were named after real carnivorous dinosaurs (except for the Pterrodax - his name is "Pterrible"). Just as "Mister" is not available, neither is "Mother". So "Mudder Clucker", my Ancona Chicken, proudly struts around. One of my parrots is named Buffet, the other is Margarita. Thank goodness I can change those names around at will in case I get a brainstorm and find something I like better.
I don't have as many pets as some, but I spent a good 2 hours coming up with names for my various pals. It gives guildies and players alike a chuckle, since I use GupPet and summon random pets all the time.
I found Pet Battles first, and have 3 pets I'm leveling up. So...that explains why I'm still level 85 and sitting in Orgrimmar.
. I tried naming my fox hunter's pet Fawkes. That apparently has mature language, as well.Mairin wrote:It didn't seem to like going with Mr or Mister at the start either which again are not exactly uncommon pet names. Snowball is just really silly though...Lysi wrote:I'm getting a bit tired of all the rules. I couldn't name a pet "Snowball" because it contains mature language--it's a classic pet name, and the name of an item in the game, but entirely inappropriate, lol. I figured I wouldn't be able to use "Admiral" because it's a military title, and I know that's not allowed. But it didn't occur to me I wouldn't be able to use "Lady" either. Another classic pet name unusable! I'm sure I'll run into more of that, too. But I do enjoy being able to name small pets, it adds more personality to the game.
Yup, I have a yellow firefly named Serenity, as well.Lysi wrote:Bellaryl, I named one of my hunter pet fireflies Serenity, so I didn't use it for the small one. I like to have them out together.

Lady and Princess aren't excluded because they're offensive, they're excluded because the naming rules are the same as the rules for naming characters. And putting a "title" in your character name is not allowed, since titles are something you can earn in the game through combat or achievements. Princess is excluded for the same reason Captain is excluded.RallyC wrote:Hmm I actually haven't come across a problem naming pets yet, guess I'm just lucky. I can sorta see why Snowball is out since there's the "ball" part that someone could make a gross joke outta. Lady and Princess though... Maybe because depending on the pet the names were given to it could offend someone? I'm really not sure
I never did get that whelp to drop. I broke down and got one off the AH. It is now Izkendar. /bow
Named my Firefly Serenity also. Its on my main team right now, along with a Grunty named Jayne and a Personal World Destroyer named Gorram. Tiny Flamefly is named Kaylee, and I have strong leanings to name a Gazelle fawn (which everone says is one of the better healing pets) Simon.Asenter6 wrote:Lysi wrote:Yup, I have a yellow firefly named Serenity, as well.Bellaryl wrote:I'm surprised that no one mentioned naming their Firefly "Serenity".
. In case anyone was wondering, the name Laidy Pecknpaw is from American Dad. I added the I in there since you can't use lady. And yes, I have 2 pets named Jean/Gene, just spelled differently. There is a reason behind that, lol.
