I usually name pets for an attribute or something I thought of. Before I dropped CH for the hologrind, I tried to name pets after various elements, and then after I got it again, I started naming a few after extinct animals, but kind of dropped that


Mountain Squill: AlienRaptor because I think it sort of looks like a Velociraptor, and its alien.


My two Mountain Dewbacks: Dune and Arrakis after the Dune series of books and very appropriate for Tatoonian natives


Angler: Venom, because it uses poison (venom).


Giant Angler: ImpEnvenomator, I thought of this while waiting for someone at the Rebel hidden outpost on corellia and I think its pretty funny


Graul Mauler: Rocky, same name it had when I bought it, I just thought its a nice name for a graul, so I kept it.


Merek Asassin: VenomousSpidermonkey, I just thought it was cool and a merek is a spider/monkey cross.


Thats all I can remember ATM since I'm not ingame. I haven't named all of my pets though.


This is a little offtopic, but I named my combat droid (a R3 unit) RancorFlea, while using it as a distraction against rancors and it really doesn't do much more than annoy rancors







heres the rest:


Desert Razorback: Aussie, named him because I thought of the razorback pig (feral pig) from australia, and so I named him that.


Giant Crystal Snake: JungleViper, forget why i called him that...


a CL 10 bantha mount from a guildie: Mammoth, well, its big and wooly, go figure, hehe.

I go for names that might actually be good for pets in SW, which means I avoid literary and cinema references. Names I've had that I can recall:



  • Mac

  • Rinyin

  • Tanji

  • Squonky

  • Honya (I cheated here because this is bookstore in Japanese)

  • Labya

  • Jinx

  • Moli

  • Rags

  • Biff

  • Snark

  • Laba

  • Bobi

Currently, I have three stage banthas I use in my dance routine. They are named:



  • Flash

  • Dazzle

  • Glamor

I figure it was only fair.

Love Star Wars, but the few role-players I could find on the servers were outnumbered by powergamers who wanted only l337 l00t and mad skillz. I can't justify paying $15 a month to play a game by myself.
Still cares enough to interject an opinion, though.

I usually come up with very original names for my pets. More original, the better. But, I have been known to ask my PA for advice on names from time to time


Here's just a few examples of my more favoite pet's names.

Gah! I hate these boards when I can't tab sorry for the previous unfinished post.

Here's just a few examples of my more favoite pet's names.


Zranish (My first Boar wolf)

Grassnor (Kwi)

Scinirath (Toxic Merek Battlelord)


I feel that the more original the name of the pet, then the more you will enjoy those pets. Just my 2 creds though.

  • Freddy-Kreuger - Cowardly Gurreck (I like horror movies)

  • Jason-Voorhees - Cowardly Gurreck

  • Meat-Sheild - BE Ronto with good Kinetic resist

  • Rosco - BE Bantha Mount (from before CH, I liked the name)

  • Chewen-Jr - Male Mamien (Chewen is a Wookiee friend)

  • Arokh-Jr - Kliknik (Arokh is another friend)

  • Rynnn-Jr - Female Tusk Cat (Rynnn is yet another friend, and Rynnn is female)

I like to take my "friends" hunting with me so I named some pets after them so I can say that Arokh helped me take out a lair of Pikets or Chewen beat up a Gurk by himself. I have a couple Lesser Bols and a Thune that I have yet to name. I usually don't name my pets until they are full grown. I also can't wait until I get Management 3 so I can have Freddy and Jason both out at the same time.

I'll jump in...


My first pet as Dana was a Kaduu named Freckles. Not hard to see why.


The second one was a puppyish bol, with the name of Fido. Not my choice, but it fits.


Then I have Bubbles the durrni who just got a sister squall named Blossom (and yes, I plan to get a Buttercup in the future, just haven't found it yet)...


I also have a flit named Gull, as it looks like a seagull...


Floppy (heck, I'm not sure what it is, just looks like a BEM that flies)


Ubu the Gurrick (yes, I hear a lot of 'Sit, Ubu' jokes. Again not my choice of names)


Just got a mammoth bearded jax named Artemis (he looks like an Artemis)


And that is on Lowrca...


On Shadowfire, I just have a squill named Rocky (he looks like that famed squirrill) and Sedak (my first pet on either server) which is a minor sledge panther, who started life as a Gurrick til the devs got ahold of him...but that is another story for another day...

Here's a few of mine...


2 Gaping Spider Recluses - Lethal & Shrill(Lethal has saved my butt several times, and she's definitelymy favorite!)


Arachne Warrior - Arach


Rancor - Shearer (I bought this from someone else who'd give it this name, but I like it)


Humbaba - Bub


Bull Ronto - Ront


Giant Carrion Spat- Legs


2 BE Bearded Jaxes - Olga & Helga


BE Gurreck - Bruno


Fambaa - Shorty


Manigrue Screecher - Lassa (named after the nasty ebola virus strain, which is about as deadly as the disease these critters attack with)


Spined Puc - MasterOfAllThingsEvil (never has a more frightening and intimidating creature patrolled outside a starport!)


Bub and Ront were the first competent pets I used once I could pull out 2 pets at a time. I think I spent more time laughing while watching them fight together than actually helping them fight. Something about 2 big herbivores stomping the tar out of anything we could find just got the best of me I guess.
