Maybe /v/ can help me with this. I'm currently working on a game and I've made a rigged 3D model and several animation cycles for pic related. Only problem is, I can't come up with a good name for this guy.
Any ideas for a name? It's going to be a standard simple enemy in an action game.

What's the desl with the guy? Is he an alien or a monster or what? Give us context.
>>382981697
shingle
why is this guy not the main character?
also his name is Fatherton
>>382981697
Not going to lie, that is cute as fuck.
Maybe name him Squirmy? Sounds like squid and he looks like he moves a lot.

Squirt or little Jimmy

That's pretty good, except for the fact the shingles is when chickenpox reactivates in the body. I've had it, it's painful and gross.

It's going to be a spirit monster-type thing, sort of like what heartless or dreameaters are from Kingdom Hearts. Fights back when provoked or threatened, otherwise peaceful.

He reminds me of the hat worn by the figure in the Heirophant tarot card.

Call it small squid ref.

I suggest themes for the naming of all enemies. Either phonetic, syllabic, or referential.
For the art style I recommend something phonetically cute, syllabically short, and referentially funny. This guy should be named pope.

I wrote it, and I think it sounds the best

plus it can be single and/or plural forms for the mob. sick. hire me.
OP here, there's actually some pretty great names here! I'm writing down lots of these and I'll probably see how I feel about it later, I don't think I can make a snap decision about this.
I should have clarified, these guys are going to be in groups, it's not a unique enemy. If that makes any difference.
>>382981890
Thanks man!
>>382982371
I'm going to have it be the symbol for that specific "tribe" of monster, there are other guys I'm working on that have similar marks.
>>382982657
This doesn't ruin anything for me to be honest. I personally hate minions, but kids like them because they're simple and cute. Cute things appeal to people so I figured I'd give it a shot. I was thinking more about things like Pikmin and Kirby when animating and making this guy.

Since they're squird you should really keep it accurate and give eightbtentacles and two legs. It's cute but to be cute AND accurate is going above and beyond.
I like it though anon, good job. I wouldn't even want to hurt these guys.
