    Okay, the serval was really getting tired of this long as fuck name. It pissed her off. How was she supposed to introvert quietly and barely introduce herself if she had to say the entire fucking name 'Embeddedpython.' So, she decided to temporarily force herself to socialize in a more... center stage way.


    "Hey, guys, I need help coming up with a name for myself, because mine is too long. I was thinking Quinn, but that sounds stupid. Help?" she called out, feeling a bit stupid because she usually didn't randomly start conversation shit, especially with thin air. Oh fuck she just wanted to go back to her nest and hide now.

    "I mean, I quite like your name how it is now but Quinn is also pretty. What kind of names were you going for? I don't want to pick out anything that could be too girly for you." Mae said as she offered her friend a soft smile, her fluffy tail twitching behind her absently as she moved up near her and smiled lightly. More than once, Mae had considered changing her name but every time she had settled for not doing it. Sylmae was who she was and she didn't want to change that, ever

    She paused there, a bit uncertain as to which types of names the deputy even referred to. Of course, Emby did not know all that much about naming science, but she gathered from Mae's example that she meant gendery things. "Oh, I like really feminine names, but I don't know too many of them, which is probably part of the problem," she stated, looking down at her paws for a second out of brief sheepishness. Maybe she should have just reclused into her room for a few days to pick out her name on her own to avoid the embarrassment. But, it didn't matter, really; the feeling was brief and not that bad. And, hey, someone actually want to help her, which felt nice.

    Vanillapastry trotted over to her sister with ears perked up. She did have to agree that her name didn't exactly roll of the tongue and she wasn't exactly too fond of it. The head medic didn't hate the name, she just didn't particularly like.


    The serval took a seat next to her sister, giving her a tiny smile. "What about a different clan name? There aren't enough clan names in Riverclan." She asked, racking her mind for a clan name that would be suitable. "Perhaps something along the lines of Poison.. something?" The head medic suggested, quite liking the poison prefix for her sister.

Righting himself, the dark pup flumped himself down before the serval. The tip of his tail thumped against the ground almost involuntarily as he opened his mouth to spout forth his suggestions. Well, she could name herself after him, because he had a pretty great name, but Ramses didn't seem like it'd fit her, and he'd most likely come off as arrogant. There was also the name Spots, due to her obvious coat, but he closed his mouth before the unoriginal suggestion could come to fruition. His little brow furrowed in concentration. This stuff was hard!


    Feminine names, huh? "What about Iris? Or Mya? Or... Freya. Delila." His sudden outpouring eventually lapsed into silence as he tried to think of more.

    "I mean, if you went with something clanny and girly and it still went with Poison like Vani recommended.. You could do like Poisonflowers or something along those lines. Uhm, Ramses has some good name ideas, too. I've named a lot of kids but even I'm not very good at this." Mae joked lightly and smiled at Emby softly. She hoped she wouldn't be mad at her for her inability to figure out names for her.

    The serval blinked, finding all of the suggestions to be rather good ones, at least compared to the shit that her brain came up with. Emby decided that she probably shouldn't have children because she'd probably just name them after cereal or some other fucking nonsense. "I feel like poison is a weird prefix... maybe toxic? I could see myself with a prefix of toxic for a Clan name," she responded to her sister, thinking a bit out loud at the end. "Toxickisses? Actually, that's really depressing." She hoped that whoever she gave kisses to in her lifetime wouldn't actually think they were toxic, after all.


    Looking over at Ramses, whose name she actually did like, the warrior nodded thoughtfully. "I like Iris or Freya." They sounded familiar to her; perhaps goddesses? They sounded like goddess names, which she supposed only seemed fitting.


    And, of course, Mae had good suggestions, too. Well, about the way to make her name a bit more interesting withe Clan name idea. "Yeah, Mae, that sounds like a good idea. I'll probably either do that or go with one of the ones Ramses suggested? Fuck, I don't know. I can't be trusted to name myself obviously, since I fucked up so damn bad the first time." Well, she hated her name, and she'd fix it. And she'd keep fixing it until she came across one that didn't make her mad at herself for being incompetent as fuck.

    "Toxiciris?" Nebulacub suggested, tilting her head as she made her way over, hearing bits of the conversation. She curled her tail right around her paws, leaning right against her mother's flank. "Or..Or like Freyawind. Or something."

    "Hm, not bad, but I don't think I'll go with those," she replied, rubbing the bottom of her chin with her paw. Names were tricky. It seemed that she still couldn't make up her damn mind, even with some actual help.

The Norse Goddess of Beauty and Warfare, Queen of the Valkyries." The magpanther states, although she does not assosciate the greatest of qualities with Freyja thanks to the hell Talia went through with Norse gods, partially caused by the Valkyrie Queen. "I'm not good with clan names, mine was cyanidepills, but I was an edgy child."

    Sylmae flicked an ear as she listened to them all talking and she smiled a little bit. "Freya is a beautiful name. Maybe instead of wind, though we could go with like Freya.. Ah, I got nothing for that, honestly. Freyawind is about the only thing that sounds good there, to be honest with you. But Toxickisses or Toxiciris could be pretty, too. And hey, I like your current name, so don't hate on it. At least your name isn't Sylmae. I can't tell you how many times I've been called sly and I'm like.. not even that sneaky." Mae joked lightly and smiled at the female. Glancing over her shoulder as she heard Annie speak, her nose crinkled in amusement and she smiled at her friend.

    [fancypost borderwidth=0px; width: 450px][justify][size=8]"Ooh, Freyja sounds really nice and Toxickisses sounds badass," declared the lithe serval as she trotted over, nodding. Yeah, they could definitely understand why their sister wanted to change her name… Embeddedpython was a bit of a mouthful.
