New OC! But no name yet...

[OverTheStars 65]

Not sure why, but drawing male ponies feels more difficult...still fun though! 

Anyways, I imagine he'd be some sort of fighter, probably somewhere outside Equestria? I made his cutie mark a laurel wreath since it'd represent victory or triumph for him, but possibly honor as well. Because of this, I kinda wanted to give him a name based in Greek mythology since they were used in ancient Greek sporting events I think. Laurel is usually associated with Apollo, but I'm not totally sold on making that his name either. Any ideas?

Not totally sure but I think having "Laurel" as part of a two part name might work well  Awesome artwork as well!

He looks awesome! Love the idea behind his cutie mark as well.

Thank you!! I like the idea of Laurel being part of his name too, maybe Laurel would be part of his actuual name and he'd typically go by something else when fighting

Hey! I got one of dem there things on my behind too! Only it comes with a fleur de lis in the center!

I don't know why I typed that exactly, couldn't help myself. 

Anyways, for a specific set of OCs I use latin in part of their names. Vernabt Invictus means "Scarred but Undefeated". You could have something similar with either Greek or Latin for the gladiator/Olympian aspect.

Do you have any more backstory for inspiration?
