… or have I? I have to have been doing SOMETHING when I’ve been logging on right? So here’s a little round up of what I have been doing over the past couple of weeks.
I’ve managed to level my lil hordie Softi to 49. I’m contemplating doing some pvp with her just for *something* to do. I feel like I’ve hit a slump with her at the moment. I’m getting closer and closer to Outlands, but at the same time it’s still quite a hard slog to get there when you’re soloing most of the time. Then I end up playing another character and the saga continues… *sigh* I’m not making it any easier on myself am I? 
My baby hunter Leafi has been given a lil invite to The Hugger’s guild, where I’m currently getting to know some of the other players and having a great time leveling! 26 and counting… I can hardly let Jhai be ahead of me can I?? Mind you, at least her big brother Dryn the hunter gave me a helping hand in the Stockades the other day… two, or was it three times? 
So I guess I won’t whinge or whine too much about the druid getting all higher up in levels… just so long as I keep catching up!Now… Leafi has some new pets. Well, they’re not new to her any more, but they are still pretty new. The latest addition was a trip to Redridge to tame Bellygrub. I’ve come up with the oh-so-unoriginal name of Belli for her.However… we are also now the proud companion of a Ghost Saber. Cat (as he is called for the time being) has been with us since level 20, and we still can’t come up with a name for him 
I have a few… guidelines… I want to use while naming him
- A relatively simple name - only 1-2 syllables tops.
- Something that will ‘go’ with Leafi when I say their names.
- A name that will play on the transparent/ghost type pet that he is.
- SOMETHING ORIGINAL - not another Ghost, or Whisper, or Seethru, but I’m open to those words in another language, even a made up one?
Not that I’m fussy at all… *whistles*
So, if you think you can help me with a name It’d be *much* appreciated, and if not a name… maybe some sites where I can think of something? For now I’m off to read up on Mama Druid’s naming posts - no reason it wouldn’t work with a pet just as well as a character eh? - I’ve managed to get up 5 levels of JC on Maryliin, so she’s now only 5 points away from being maxed out - *woot!*
- Softthistle has gotten to revered with the SSO. Only another week or so of doing half-assed dailies and she’ll be Exalted and the precious will be mine!
Umm, yea… well… I guess I have been pretty busy after all!

What about Acorn? Or possibly Bark? (which would be doubly silly, since it’s a cat)

Oh yes indeed! I can spend too long coming up with a pet name. Oy vey!
You might find the technique described here at Mania’s to be useful, if not interesting. It’s one I failed to mention in my series.

Call me unoriginal, but I named my Ghost Saber “Kitty”.
>.>
One of the things you might try is get in a party with a non-Tauren friend, set your language to Taurahe, and then feed it various works like “Spirit”, “Ghost”, “Fuzzyface”, or whatever you think might produce a cool name.
Good luck!

Or Draenai, since I’m a bit slow on Mondays and just noticed you’re not a cow.

Would be happy to help you out with the partying-and-getting-Draenic-words thing Grizz suggested, Softi! BTW - Jhai’s 27 now harhar!

I have a habit of naming all of my pets after Latin words related to their specie — as opposed to Hungarian names for my characters. For example, my kal’dorei hunter’s animal companion — a cantankerous strigid owl she raised from hatchling — is named Alatus, which supposedly means “having wings”. It worked for him pretty well. My perky priestess, however, has a pet frog named Skippy; she has an odd habit of talking to the critter and likes saying “Damn Skippy!”
To play on the name Leafi, have you considered:
* Er (Leafier)
* Est (Leafiest)
* Shin (Shinleaf, a type of herb)
* Fly (Flyleaf, as in a book page)
… aaaaaaaand that’s all I could do. Sorry, I”m not a witty person.

I am not much good at this naming stuff myself (thank goodness warlock pets come pre-named!)… maybe a prettier combination of the words ‘Clearclaw’ since that looks pretty awful! Kleaclaw? Just as nasty! Cleapaw? I don’t know, ot sounded good in my head at the time!

Clarus - latin for clear sounded good to me. not sure how well it fits with leafi though….
