Need help for OC name

Recommended Posts

I've been writing a fanfic for a while, but I still need a name for one of the characters, a tank commander. I've been trying to figure out a name that would represent him, or any good name in general, but couldn't find one, so I'm asking you guys. The said commander already participated in previous wars, and because of that, has a lot of experience with firearms and combat tactics, but also because of that, he suffers from PTSD. Based on this info, how do you think he should be named?

Possible you have a picture of him? And if not, could you through him through the Pony Creator? And perhaps a cutie mark? (Don't need the picture of the cutie mark, just want to know what it looks like)

No picture, I'm not drawing colts yet. I won't use PC, and even if I did, I don't think his physical appearance would matter much in choosing a name for him.

Calibro Magno , it mean " Big caliber", and could be referred to his experience with fire arms, even those like 50 mm or else.

Btw, I think it will be a good name for a soldier character .

 

Sounds good, he does have less experience with big calibers though. He's the commander and was a scout in a previous war, the gunner specializes in using the tank's main guns. The only disadvantage is that it sounds way too cheesy and out of place for the character.

how about...

 

 

"big shot"

 

seems good :)

 

Too cheesy. The fic is here (http://www.fimfiction.net/story/256918/symphony-of-steel), and if you read it, you'll see it's more of a darker fic centered on war instead of a big action "Totally good and awesome guys VS Totally idiotic and unskilled guys" fic.

What about Grounded Tread? (or something along those lines)

 

Not only does this reference him being a tank commander (alluding to the Tank treads), it also refers to his past as a scout (as he had to 'tread' ground)

Hrmm...So your going for more of a serious vibe eh? Well, pony names do tend to be pun-based which may defuse some of that intimidation factor. Hmm, how about....

 

Lone Wolf? With it's hint of ferocity? On the positive side, many military groups tend to go by animal based names, so for inspiration you could just look up the things pilots painted on the sides of their planes, or navy boats and the like.

 

Wanton Rancor? Hmm...could swear i've heard the name General Rancor taken from somewhere already....

Ooh! Or perhaps just string together the various code names together!   Like, Charlie Bravo!


   Beatings & Salivations Everybeing!   Creativity is something blatantly important to me as is no doubt evidenced by the 28 OCs I have posted here of the some forty plus I have, they're linked altogether at the bottom of my About Me page in my Profile & I would deeply cherish anything you wish to say about them! Among which of those I am proudest most of is my Draconequusona, His/My Ask Thread  and my Hydra, Gallimaufry or "Mauf" and their own Ask Thread!  Either way, sufficed to say, I am quite confident I have more OCs than you! Crazier to! Do You have a tatzelpony?! No, I rather think you don't! Hew-Hew-hew!
