Just a few -

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/EuPZ0 becomes Europa Zo.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/P2RT2 becomes Part Two.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/Tu8lf becomes Tuffy Marans.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/tikgo becomes Tiki Go.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/upLnI becomes Upland Flash.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/LZCuS, who I thought about naming with a reference to her parents, still ended up as Lazy Cuss.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/uSEg2 is Repair Reuse Recycle.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/8JR00 is Rooje.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/b0Oj6 is Booje. Somewhere farther along the road, I will breed this pair

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/dHoLD became The Grippe. Several of my Crimson Flares have disease-related names, so this was a very nice catch.

 

http://dragcave.net/lineage/HAY8p became Hay Fever, another of the Crimson Flares. smile.gif

If the code is a name already, I sometimes don't name them at all - what's the point of catching a dragon with a cool code if the code is not visible on your scroll because you replace it by a name?

 

I have a guardian with the code TobY. I named this one though, because it is inbred and I mark the dragons I do not breed with "ib" (inbred) or "ml" (messy lineage), so it is called TobY ib now wink.gif

 

I also have a Sunstone with the code SeNFo. I didn't name it to keep the code visible on my scroll, but I named its mate Senfo's girl smile.gif

I have quite a few, just for example:

Bluna named Bad RJ (BdARJ)

Guardian named Hoxes Farseer (HOXES)

Horse named V'Koto (VKOTo)

Lake named Q'onn Maih (qnMAe)

Nebula named Nebej (NEb3J)

 

And my favorite: a Pink named Dr. Doi (dRDOi) - The best part was that my daughter's orthodontist is... Dr. Doi smile.gif

I've got so many dragons like this. Sometimes I wonder how I got the name from the code. But I just stare at the code and zone out until something comes to me, for the weirder ones.

 

Twilit Near Million: 999kR

Close Delosa: cLSds

Oohlag Arisen: OLaoG

Zait Fu: Z8Fu3

Etra Brinnous: 39ETR

Leggy Leaves: mLeg8

Knoyo Coops: KnNYO

Holly Bunni: cBuni

 

That's just a couple I found while scrolling down my first page. My favorite is Sixy Looker Bleu: 6kl7R.

 

Some of these are just nuts. I know like 90% of my spitfires were named this way.

I only have one,

 

Ir1Sa as Irisa. But I didn't like the name so I removed the "a". biggrin.gif

Usually I don't name things according to their codes, but sometimes when I don't simply come up with any kind of name, I'll look at the code for little help.

 

Though my naming is so peculiar that I rarely have any troubles with naming.

I managed to trade for a pretty little stripe with the code, xoupa (caps messed.) The name couldn't be anything but Xoup Dragon! xd.png

When my Sweetling hatched I noticed his code was q3Cub, so I named him Babie Bear (BabyBear and Baby Bear were already taken)

I've done this more and more lately, particularly if I'm out of creative juices or if a code pops up that I just can't ignore.

For example, I got a Whiptail a while back to be frozen for my scroll. The letters were "k-f-c-f-c." I immediately thought of Kentucky Fried Chicken and couldn't get past it. So, yes, I have a frozen Whiptail on my scroll named Kentucky Fried Chicken, lol.

Sometimes I do it when I get a word code :3 Then I do not even change any caps.

That's why I have "ApRlL CB Zz" and "FAaIL CB Zz" on my scroll, for example =)
