Im terrible with coming up with names, help name my pony OC?

[Commander Dash 3]

Thx for the name idea

 

BTW he's gray not black

 

Its aight though

 

I've decided on the name having something with night and shield or aegis

How about the name "Night Watch"?

 

I think it fits, but if you want him to have a different name, then that's fine by me, seeing as this is your OC.

[Milk Wave 454]

Nah, I think Night Aegis suits him the best.

 

To be honest, when you combine 2 words together they're either going to come out nice or weird. Take Spark Moon for example. 2 different words, but combined they still sound unique in their way.

I think that shall wrap things up as of now.

I'll just gather random names from this.

Night Shield/Aegis

Navy Shield

Dusk Shield

Fancy Aegis(?)

Shieldy Gray/Gray Shielder

Grey Aegis

...Nightfall Guardian?

 

I find it easier to pair words with shield than with aegis. Also, relating the name to the coat/mane color is fairly easy (to me).

Still same to my previous post, Navy Shield sounds best to me.

 

I ran out of ideas. Good luck with the naming.

[Commander Dash 3]

Oooo! Groovyle!

 

I think I've got it! Thank you!

 

It'll either be Dusk Shield or Dusk Aegis

 

Now I'll just have to decide...

 

This may or may not prove to be difficult

 

What do you guys think?

To be honest, I personally like Dusk Shield the best out of those two. I don't think that Dusk Aegis really works as a name.

 

Well if this is truly the end of the thread when you come up with a name then I'd just like to say really quite enjoyed this thread.

 

Goodbye and good luck Commander Dash.

[Commander Dash 3]

Yeah, I like Dusk Shield more

Thank you everpony for your assistance

I really appreciate it

And now to come up with a cutie mark
I think a  cloudy full moon with a shield on it would be just great but I'm always open to new ideas

Opinions? Ideas?

[Groovyle 43]

Hey, I didn't think that random name would be the chosen one! I like it though.

Now I'm a good name-er huahuehuehue

^ Kidding.

 

Cutie mark...it should be a shield, because that's his name!

Your idea is good but I will give you what I think.

What shape is the shield? A circle? Kite-shaped? Diamond-shaped (pentagonal)? I personally like a kite-shaped shield.

Shape doesn't matter to me. The cutie mark, I think, is a shield (color?) laying on a cloud or a pair of clouds.

The colour of the shield is, I think, is night sky blue, or gray, or dark grey.

[Commander Dash 3]

I think the shield will be a Heater shield

 

I really like your idea, a shield laying on a cloud, but is it resting atop it or is it behind the shield itself?

 

The color i was thinking it would be a night blue color

[Groovyle 43]

I don't quite get what you said there, but I guess I get the point.

The shield is laying/resting on the cloud(s). I can't do the illustration, I'm a bad artist.

 

To make it easy to imagine (easy?), think that the shield fell on the cloud(s).

^ If above doesn't make sense, just think that the shield is resting on the cloud(s).

 

I hope you get what I'm talking about.

[Commander Dash 3]

Ah okay, what I was saying was that it was floating above the cloud but only having the bottom tip of the shield touching it

[Groovyle 43]

Oh, now I get what you mean. (sorry took long for me to understand)

 

Like a shield uncovered from the fogs? Or or or like anime-style summon? Great!

 

...can't imagine any other cutie mark. I'll post again if I get any.

 

Or you could think about something other than a shield if it does not suit your feels. It doesn't have to be a shield right?

But still, I have no idea (yet).

[Commander Dash 3]

Ive just come up with a new one

 

A heater shield with a full moon on it

 

Forget about the clouds, I think I'll just stick with a shield and a moon

[Groovyle 43]

 

 

Forget about the clouds

Sure then. I came up with clouds because he's a pegasus.

 

 

 

A heater shield with a full moon on it

Hmm. I tried to imagine this, looks good, but at first the moon looked like a hole on the shield. If you're going to do the art, make sure the moon won't look like a hole.

...or maybe it's just me. Craters on the moon will make it look like a moon will do.

Man, I guess its just me.

 

I came up with another idea : flying shield shield with wings. But it looks weird and mainstream. I don't like my own idea :/

[Thesbie 33]

Well if he wants to be a guard he should have a really bold name like:

Chivalry

chivalric

Templar

Seraphim (I really like this one)

Imperial

Artillery

Troop....eh that's all I got for now!

[Commander Dash 3]

yeah if draw the shield with the moon i would add details to the moon itself

 

i possibly might not have to if i make the shield and moon have a different enough color

[kirbyboi 587]

Love your Oc, and his description! :3

 

Some names that might fit him are

 

Dream Shimmer

 

Pixel Blaze

 

Starstorm

 

Those are some names that might fit his personality/talent! Hope I helped!

[Moonpie 55]

Midnight Embers lapiz lazuli are two popping into my head at the moment sorry I cannot think of any others

[Commander Dash 3]

Gosh darnit! i knew i shouldve closed this thread before someone posted a good name

 

Curse you Pixiesong!

 

Curse you for giving me a good name! Pixel Blaze!

 

I will use that name to create a new OC though

 

Thanks!
