That feel when you want to make a new pet and every. single. fucking. real word is taken and every possible synonym of it as well

I'm sorry, but I just spend like 15 minutes switching between dictionary sites and subeta search and needed to vent somewhere >>

Maybe it would be easier to use name of the character I want to make pet of but I'm bad at naming my ocs and coming up with a name is propably going to be the same pain

I know the feel! :c I spent 10 minutes of searching for rws in general and I only found 2 available. I'm guessing you're looking for a word with a specific meaning? Would any of the synonyms have any common spelling variants you could try (like australian vs. american spelling)?

It's painful. I've pretty much given up and have just gone with alternate spellings (like my newest one Phluffy) or using Google Translate to get the names I want in other languages.

Yep a specific meaning, spellings are pretty much the same in this case though ;; But actually a little bit ago I found a name on inactive accout but since english isn't my mother language I'm not sure if it's really the same meaning as what I'm looking for. Off to the online dictionaries I guess lol

I did that with Vesmir which means 'space' in czech when I was looking for a name for space themed pet. but I'm that idiot that just want this english real word name and will rather spend hour searching for free one instead of using some translate lol

I'm still not sure but I'll propably use it, I don't want to spend more 20 minutes searching for another xD

Hehe it does sound like it'd be better than spending 20mins on finding a different one! XD Though if you keep searching and you want some help, you can pm me! C:

..and then every nice version of the word in another language is taken as well! Sorry, it sucks. Takes some of the excitement out of getting the bugger, too. /: Hope a more than decent alternative word/name strikes you like clear-sky lightning soon!

I can totally relate too. And since I'm very OCD about correct spellings, I will never be able to own alternative spellings of a RW or a fanpet name. It did sometimes take years to get some of the names I have now. But the bright side is that occasionally when I look at a character from a completely different perspective to come up with some different RWs, I might just get some extra insights and ideas for the character.

I wish you the best luck in name hunting :)!

Is it a cursed blessing or a blessed curse.

Just wait until you get that pet - you'll get a new idea, name, and slot one week later. Uneven number forevermore. Just you wait & see.

Yup I know this pain all too well... there's quite a few names out there that I like, names, words... and all variations are taken. Just makes you wanna give up and stop trying. At least for a little while.

Congratulations! You have just adopted Omitted the Fester! AHAHAHA YESSS FINALLY

Same. I was rather sad that I can't have fanpet of something I really like instead of lefting out a letter in his name or something. It just needs to be perfect

I have more than 25 ocs and only few of them here as pets. I want to make new pet everytime I see item that would fit their possible TC xD

Point proven. Person doomed. Sucks to be pet addict (but delightfully so). U:

And of course there's that one item which is to blame 78% of the time. Darnit. Why so perfect. It's a conspiracy. (And an uneven one at that. /bricked)

Congrats! That's a wonderful find!

Totally! There were times that I just had to left out a fanpet or find RWs for them :(. Though I guess I have also been sort of lucky since most of my favourite characters have rather uncommon or odd first/last names. Plus usually I am into things that are either too ancient or too new for people to care about xD.

I don't have a single pet finished why do I keep doing this to myself

[sub]that bird catching daily that was here before they replaced it with bugs? that basically made me to create pet with only birds in their TC[/sub]

Thank you! Now I can finally life in peace until September when I'm getting next loyalty box and will spend another evening searching for a name. It never ends

I definitely know that pain. I spent... around two? three? hours last night flipping through as many real names as I could think of to try and see if one wasn't taken or on an inactive account with no luck.

I finally found a RW that was on a dead account, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm going to keep him because I've yet to even start work on a lot of the pets I have that I do have ideas for lmao

Same - and yet I'm at 50+ pets w/plans for more once I've switched some of my current ones' names around ha-ha help

Oh, don't get me started on birds; I'd have like 517 pets feat. birds at different angles if the world would let me - but alas! I must ration the slots, and as such only a handful are bird-themed for now. Thank goodness? The jury's still out.

You could be like me and have the perfect name for a pet, then adopt it out, and then decide a year later you want it back again. /shot I was trying to get away from fan-names. Regrets were had.

Looking to buy this!
