Names

Here in TSCRP, the managers have access to a list of names which they use to name you. These names, painstakingly sorted by Warrior over the course of two days for the suffixes and a whole week for the prefixes, can provide insight on a character's personality, because that's how we named you. Anyways, if you're trying to come up with kit names or something, feel free to ask a manager.

## Prefixes

#### **Energetic names**

Acorn, Bounce, Fidget, and Spark. These names and many more have a certain pep in their step. Hearing a name like this will put a certain Energetic picture in your mind. Cats with these names are the ones that are bouncy, fun, and have a certain brightness to them. These are the kits made of sunlight and rainbows.

#### **Kind Names**

Fern, Orchid, Snowdrop, and Vanilla. Names like these bring to mind a kind cat, sweet and peaceful. Kind names are female, more often than not, but males *can* have kind names. Cats signing up as queens will often get a kind name.

#### **Aggressive Names**

Adder, Broken, Dead, Rift, and Wolf. Names like these belong to the fiercest warriors, the fighters, the cats pushing for war. I haven't counted, but I'm pretty sure that this is the largest category of names.

#### **Intelligent Names**

Blackbird, Ember, and Olive. Names in this category belong to the nerd cats. Medicine cats often get these names, and Intelligent cats often end up successful in their chosen role. They tend to be highly respected among their peers thanks to their intelligence.

#### **Nervous Names**

Cobweb, Fumble, Quake, and Yarrow. Cats with Nervous names are, predictably, nervous. Skittish, shy, suspicious, or startled, these cats have names that, for the most part, reflect their nervous energy.

#### **Gentle Names**

Butterfly, Cloud, Fawn, and Soul. You can't get much gentler than these names. Gentle names are Kind names made of dreams and fairy kisses. It's hard to find a gentle name with any sort of backbone, but the right suffix can give these names some substance. Do NOT, under any circumstance, pair a Gentle name with an Aggressive one. Irony is great, but please don't. Queens who don't have Kind names typically have these.

#### **Pretty Names**

Dahlia, Emerald, Primrose, Violet, Wisp. Beautiful names for beautiful cats. This is the one category where aesthetic is everything. If your cat is pretty enough, their personality doesn't matter. Pretty names are almost exclusively female, with maybe one that wouldn't be an embarrassment to your son at his first Gathering.

#### **Dependable Names**

Aspen, Boulder, Granite, Rowan, and Tide. These are honestly just a bunch of tree and rock names. These are solid names for solid cats. You can always count on a cat with a Dependable name.

#### **Cute Names**

Auklet, Floss, Pipit, and Twig. These names will make you go, "Awww, it's so cute!" Usually for kits, these names can make a cat seem younger just by existing. Not all of them have to end up sounding like a kit's name. In fact, paired with the right suffix, these can make some of the best names.

#### **Diligent Names**

Beaver, Vine, and Woodpecker. These names are for the cats who will stop at nothing to get their job done. Diligent and faithful, these cats are always there for you.

#### **Bold Names**

Bolt, Eagle, Lion, and Swoop. These names are basically "fight me." More so than even the Aggressive names.

#### **Calm Names**

Chamomile, Koi, and Serene. Names that make you calmer just by being close to them.

#### **Innocent Names**

Flitter, Fluff, and Peep. Cats with these names could surely do no wrong. The Innocent names are the Cute names that can last forever and maintain that kit-like charm.

#### **Other Names**

Blue, Ivy, and Yellow. These names don't really have a special meaning. I just couldn't come up with anywhere for these names to go.

## Suffixes

#### **Creative Names**

-bird, -flake, and -slip. Suffixes like these are usually granted to apprentices who have shown creativity through their lives. They are the bouncy names, the dazzling ones, the ones most likely to get away with a forbidden relationship.

#### **Soft Names**

-bloom, -lily, and -wish. Soft suffixes are usually paired with Kind, Gentle, and Pretty prefixes. These are the dreamers, the romantics, the idealists.

#### **Aggressive Names**

-burr, -scar, -talon, and -thorn. Names like these are fit for the harshest of warriors. Cats with these suffixes are the ones pushing to go to war, the ones desperate to prove themselves.

#### **Intelligent Names**

-dew, -gorse, and -stem. These names go to the smartest cats, the problem-solvers, the doers. These cats know how to conquer every challenge.

#### **Cute Names**

-bee, -light, -skip, and -toe. For those little sunshine cats.

#### **Generic Names**

-fur, -pelt, and -tail. C'mon, guys, you can do better than that. If you get one of these names, your character is either a piece of cardboard or too confusing. Ask which before getting mad.

#### **Friendly Names**

-belly and -pounce. Names that seem to come straight out of a happy elder's den. Oh, who are we kidding, elders aren't happy. Unless they're Borageroot. He's happy.

#### **Nervous Names**

-mouse, -shade, and -leg. Names like these go to the scaredy-cats. It's okay to be afraid, as some of my favorite names are also Nervous ones.

#### **Calm Names**

-dapple, -flower, and -water. Names with a calm, peaceful, but ultimately soft sort of sound.

#### **Other Names**

-cry and -pass. Names that don't really have a set category, but are cool regardless.

Anyway, if you're curious about where your cat's name comes from, don't be scared to ask! I (Warrior, the one who wrote all of this) am happy to explain why I chose certain names for certain cats.
