Zoid Names
I don't name all of my Zoids - with the amount I have, it'd be tough for me to keep track of them all - but the odd few have acquired a name for certain reasons:
Name | Zoid | Line | Reason |
---|---|---|---|
Leo | Shield Liger | New English Release | Literally named just before I started writing this. He was my first Zoid, so I thought he deserved a name. Leo may be a cliché name for a lion type, but I like it. |
Nacho | Whitz Tiger Imitate | Convention exclusive | Named after a conversation on a forum regarding the Imitate's colour scheme. From this thread two names arose - Nacho Tiger and Cheese Whitz. I therefore decided to name mine thusly. His full name is Nacho Cheeze. |
Boz | Red Horn the Terrible | Original English Release | Simple reason. He has a sticker with BOZ written on it, and it was the first Zoid I'd noticed it on. |
Spud | King Gojulas | Rebirth Century | Initially named Edward, the nickname Spud formed from King Edward potatoes. |
Lol | Liger Zero Jager | New American Release Liger Zero + CP-20 | When a fellow Zoider kindly purchased a Liger Zero Jager on my behalf so as to reserve it for me until I had the money to pay for it, he sent the Jager to me packaged alongside a single piece of paper, on which were written the words "Lol Jager" |
Merlyn | Brastle Tiger | Genesis | Arrived within a month of losing my beloved black cat of the same name. |
Gimpi | Saber Tiger Schwalz | High-end Master Model | My Saber suffered from a manufacturing fault which left one of the leg joint holes too tight for the peg. Trying to move the leg caused a vital part on the chassis to snap. Thankfully I was just about able to repair it, and decided to name him after my favourite Evolving Item on Gaia, who also suffers from a damaged leg. |
Hornet | Lightning Saix | New American Release | Named for his black and yellow colour scheme. I later bought a sheet of Prozen Knights Hornet stickers for his shoulder armour. |
Fudge | Command Wolf LC | Genesis | Named for his colour scheme, which never fails to remind me of clotted cream fudge |
Coal Sorbet | Great Saber | High-End Master Model | Again, named for his colour. I named him Coal before I even got the payment request. The name Sorbet came from a misprint of a HMM Geno Saurer on eBay listed as Great Sauber. From there me and Pirate mutated it. |
Meringue | Blade Liger Mirage | High-End Master Model | Came from me mistyping Mirage as Mirange |
Deark | Dark Nessios | Rebirth Century | Another mistyping, this time of the word Dark |
Jana | Lightning Saix | High-end Master Model | Named after the cheetah from Wild at Heart. |
