Naming, after parents.

[Tawanda001]

OMG, the grands are mine.

I love the naming scheme!

Thanks for carrying it on.

I know it is not mine, i know it cannot be helped. i can't take it out of the ER though, as i didn't put it there...

it's ok though if it dies, i mean it's sad! but it was unloved or immaturely taken care of/forgotten

[prpldrgnfr]

I've picked up a few off the AP or they've been gifted to me, anyway there's this sunsong, this Tinsel Fail, a pillowand this little vine from the AP, and these were gifts so I thought carrying on the name would be nice pink, silver, summer.

How do you know it was unloved or forgotten?

 

Some people take messy lineaged eggs to turn into Neglecteds.

 

Some people don't post their eggs to click sites until they're very low on time for lots of reasons - lessens the risk of it getting sick, they may be out of town and don't want the egg to hatch until they get back, neglected experiment, it's being offered in a trade and they don't want it to hatch yet etc etc. I personally don't post mine to click sites until they are at 4 days or under.

 

Siliskor is right. It's sad but true - once you breed and release an egg, your rights to it end.

 

If I were attempting a neglected experiment and someone tampered with my eggs, I'd be furious. In fact, if anyone tampered with my eggs for just about any reason at all, I'd be furious. There is just really no way to know what the intentions of the person who picked up the egg are short of contacting them. It's just a risk you run as a breeder. Some will die. I try not to focus on those, and instead, focus on the GOOD homes I've found for my dragon offspring.

 

Back to topic, I've noticed more and more people keeping my surname (Corvus) as part of their dragons' names on some of the babies I've bred. I love it! I love when my bred babies get named, period, but it's even better when it includes my surname. Thanks to those adopters!

That's super-cool! I really need to find more dragon names that were passed on... hm. http://dragcave.net/view/N0Fol <3. Named after the code I bred. /happy feeling.

hehe Very nice name choice!

 

I'm so excited right now because I bred an egg as part of an IOU and after the egg hatched, the person continued the lineage name I am using. So far I think that may be a first for me!

I'm fairly certain that this little gem was named after his father. ;u; (and mother, maybe, if you take 'Immortalize' and remember how Augustus Caesar was "immortalized" once he passed, where dying = 'bane' xP)

Not as certain whether the grandson was named after his father&grandfather (Marc Antony, anyone?) but I thought it was interesting to note as well. x3

Edit: Just found out a little nebbie had been named after her 'regal' mother. :3

I love when people name my dragons offsprings, specially when the names are based on the parents names or keep a sufix going. I also do that A LOOOT

 

Here are loads of dragons that I named after the parents: link link link link link link link link link link

This Shallow Water is a favorite of mine. I love how they mashed the parents' names together. Thanks to whoever did that!

 

Whoever adopted this red Ridgewing must have thought the father's name was a reference to Spyro. It's not, just a random name and a creepy coincidence. The offspring's name made me smile.

 

This Royal Blue makes me chuckle. Its owner must have been out of name ideas. But even so, I'm flattered they used the parents' names.

[Siliskor]

I just had to name this youngster after the parents.

[5icky]

^^=WIN

[Alse15]

someone named this dragon after my dragons .

[Ashes The Second]

http://dragcave.net/progeny/CeEIl |D. The person named a baby after it's parents. <3

[LeoGirl]

I really like doing this, particularly when I'm stumped for names. I've also seen at least five or six of my dragon's children or grandchildren with my clan name, Paradox, in their names, and that's always very cool.

[TwilitProphet]

I do my best to name my dragons after their parents. Unless I see their parents names as either too random, or I cannot figure out their theme. In cases like the latter I usually name it something of my own as to not deter from whatever theme the owner of the parents was going for.

 

If there's a last name, however, I almost always try to use it.

Same, but so often the parents are unnamed. It's upsetting.

Just found out about this little fella link, named after the parents I own.

 

That was an awesome name! I feel so spechul. I passed by this person's scroll and he/she has quite a few other awesome names!

Just noticed this fella.

[lilysally]

Caught the 2nd gens on the AP and named them after their parents.

Now the 3rd gen I bred and AP'd was named after the parents as well.

Thanks!
