OC Unicorn Name Help

Recommended Posts

    I require some assistance for a trivial matter. Well, trivial to some, but others... maybe not... Anyway, just please read onward and solve my conundrum.

 

    I have spent time creating an OC Pony (My Avatar) and I am satisfied with the results. All I need is a name. The thing is, I can slap a name on a human no problem, given 2-5 Minutes, but the names I think of for OC Ponies may not be lore accurate, and that's what I'm kind of shooting for on this. That's where you come in. I need ideas for my OC's name, and the one that I think is best is the name that I give it.

 

    Some Description and Bio to help you on your way:

 

    Coat: Olive | Eyes: Brilliant Red | Race: Unicorn | Mane: Blonde | Cutie Mark: Currently Under Debate (Didn't want to make this TOO easy for you!)

 

    Bright, charming, creative, and always the one to step in before you make an irrational decision. Is reserved and a bit Anti-Social at times, but will never pass up the chance to continue a conversation. Intelligent, observant, and will never back down on a promise. Has a high vocabulary, and other ponies will sometimes have trouble telling what he's trying to say. Born and raised in Fillydelphia, but eventually moved to Ponyville to "get away from it all".  Has skill playing Low Brass Instruments, especially the Trombone.

 

    May the best name win!

The first thing that came to mind was "Olivander", from Harry Potter. :P

I'm sure I can do better than that....let's see...

What's his talent? Or rather, his job? mlp names are usually based on somepony's physical appearance( Pinkie Pie), their cutie marks( Rarity), of their personality( Fluttershy).

He's a unicorn, so something somewhat magical is good...

How about...

Fairglow? Or Stunner, Marvel...things that indicate he's somewhat of a prodigy,,, (is he?)

I'd like a little more info.

 

Wanna help me with my OC? I need help with colours: http://mlpforums.com/topic/114163-colour-scheme-help/ I'd really REALLY appreciate it. :3


Did you have any names in mind? Or any specific impression it's meant to make? (Like, do you want a name that's different, silly, intimidating...etc.)

Like I said above, one of his talents includes playing Low Brass instruments, but I want lower emphasis on that. As for jobs, I'd say that he'd be (working overtime, work out!) No, but seriously, I think he'd work somewhere that suits someone moar artistic (eg. orchestra, writing/illustrating novels, architecture, etc.). As for the rest of the criteria you have up here, You have physical appearance, There's no Cutie Mark, and I have detailed the basic outline of his personality.

How about Olive Muse? Perhaps its better if you assemble it yourself, but here are a few words that could be combined to make a nice name:

 

Physical:

  • Stallion
  • olive
  • red
  • garnet
  • glow (because he's a unicorn)

Personal:

  • stun
  • marvel
  • muse
  • craft
  • virtuoso (nice fancy word for artist)

But to be honest his cutie mark is usually the best source of a name...like my FC, Amber Dust.
