Do you have trouble naming your wolves? Well so do I. So let's try and name our wolves together.

Some naming guidelines/suggestions:
You do NOT have the use any of the names given; these are just suggestions!
Connected to the above, please don't get offended, hurt or angry by people choosing to not use your name ideas.
If you see a name offered for another wolf and like it for your own, sweet! Congrats!
Please offer someone a minimum of 3 names.
It'd be great if you put some thought into the names. Please don't just spew random names; look at the wolf and give names that just come to you.
You can offer multiple people names in one comment!

Here are the wolves I'm struggling to name. :/

He's going to be an herbalist, so I'm trying to think of something that would fit with that role. His personality is scatterbrained (friendly). I keep getting Dirtdigger and Muddypaws.I don't really like either. I already have a Mudrunner.


She's a hunter, her personality is dutiful (romantic). I . . . honestly have NO idea for her. :/ Maybe something related to nature? Like Rowan or something?? Idk man
His personality is neutral. I'm thinking maybe something to do with birds? I keep thinking of Grouse of Pheasant, but those feel too girly. Maybe it doesn't matter because it's a pixel wolf? Perhaps Hawk, Harrier or something else??
His name is Shiro, but I'm not really fond of it. His personality is keen (romantic). He's in a family of wolves I've been breeding to be sort of like tora-ge akita inus ("tiger stripe" or brindle), mainly after the anime character Gin from Ginga Nagareboshi Gin. His father is Gin, and I already have a Silver Arrow named in recognition of the charatcer/anime.

Junco (Dark eyed Junco is the bird im referencing here) or Thrasher (also a bird) for the brown and gray wolf thats neutral?

Anthurium for the romantic badger? Its another flower given around valentines day because of its heart shape! So romantic personality = romantic flower! Plus it can be red so it kinda matches her warm pelt.

Maybe Nettle for your herbalist? Or Cedar?

I dont have any ideas for the last one sorry :

My go-to name for foxes is generally Tod and Vixie, thanks to Fox and the Hound lol.

I think the wolf I had with a fox base was named Oak? There is a poison oak like a poison ivy. Google yields some red, supposedly poisonous flowers named Caladium and Amaryllis. Buttercup seems to be orange-ish, though I didn't think that was poisonous? But then again Google isn't the most reliable.
Not sure if you have an Ivy yet or not, but you could shorten some other names or use part of it in Latin or another language? Dieffenbachia to Dieff or Dieffen, or heck even Bachia lol. Larkspur could be Lark, Azalea could be Azal or Lea.

Here are some of my wolves that need names! I'll also try to be pretty active here because I love naming wolves for other people <3

(I like really creative and 'out-there' kinds of names, so please stay away from common/well known names!)

1 - Male, Dishonest
I was thinking maybe some 'angelic' kinds of themes for him? Or possibly some fire themed names.
2- Male, Dutiful
I have absolutely no clue what themes he gives off, so just go ham with names!
3 - Male, Dedicated
I'd like to stay away from galaxy/space themed names since those kinds of names are very common and repetitive. I'm not even sure if I want to keep him, so if you want him just message me and I'll hand him over.

PaintbrushSkies, if I owned #3 I would have to name him Pacific... or something along those lines.
Here is why, just below the white along his sides reminds me of trees, the white is snow, above that is mountains, and the further you go up it turns to sky and clouds. He reminds me of where I live... the Pacific NW. :) I Love his coloring for sure!

Paintbrushskies maybe for number 3 Borealis? (Aurora borealis!) His colors and the placement of markings just reminds me of that :>!

For your number 2 wolf maybe Warbler or Magpie? Bird theme!!! Maybe also Murrelet? (Still a bird theme lol.)

Thank you sunny!!! I think im either gonna go with Ivy or Caladium (prolly Caladium! It seems very fitting for this one tm)

@Sunny
For your wolf #3, maybe Elang would fit him? (pronounced Eh-lang). It means Eagle in Indonesian. Wolf #4, maybe Cendana (Chen-dah-nah), or Cemara (Ceh-ma-rah)? (C like in Change). They're both wood names, Indonesian too ofc (I'm probs gonna be doing Indonesian names lol)

@PaintbrushSkies
Wolf #3, Banyu (Bah-new), it means Water in Javanese. The reason I picked that name is cuz...of his blue colors. Wolf #1, Phoenix? Since you said "fire-themed" names, and Phoenix is a fire bird(?). Wolf #2, Putra (Poo-tra), Galuh (Gah-looh) might fit him. Putra means Son in Indonesian, and Child in Sundanese. Meanwhile Galuh means Gem in Sundanese.

note: the A in the names are pronounced like the A in Art.
