    Mount Names - Current and Future

    As I was trotting around Ul'dah on chocobo-back and passing others it really got me thinking about what people named their mounts as other players can't see that info. Additionally I presume there are many like me that gave an affectionate name to our goobbue (if we obtained one). So I wanted to open it up to all of you and throw in a few other suppositions for naming mounts. Also, please feel free to share why you decided on that name for your mount!

    Current Mounts
    Chocobo: Swagger. I named my mount swagger a bit to highlight that term's recent usage but also because obtaining that mount fulfilled the traditional definition of "to walk or strut with a defiant or insolent air; to boast or brag noisily." Between the rattle of the barding and the classic "kweh" (or wark, if you prefer) it made sense.
    Goobbue: George. A bit of a Loony Tunes reference. While the name is used by the monster who says "I will love him, and pet him, and call him George" I figured it was funny enough if my Lala did the same to him. I love my big guy!

    Supposed Mounts
    Ahriman: Po. A bit of a nod to the Zelda franchise, this is a bit self-indulging as I have a rather infamous beholder in an ongoing D&D campaign I have been running named the same.
    Magitek: 20X6. This name actually is a hat tip to both the Mega Man franchise and also the parody of it in Homestar Runner with its character "Stinkoman" (an alternate/anime Strong Bad) that exists in the year, "twenty x-ty six!"

    I like gemstones, so I'll pretty much just name anything after the gem it reminds me most of =/

    My chocobo is called Topaz.

    Goobbue... "Emerald" is probably a little too regal for something so ugly. I suppose he could be the exception to my rule. "Boogey" will do! Used similar letters and looks similar

    My current chocobo and all subsequent chocobos will be named after foods/drinks.

    My chocobo is named Cocoa.

    My goobue is nicknamed Saggy McMantitties

    My plans if we can name our magitek is to name it C.A.K.E. (Cybernetic Automated Killing Equipment)

    I hope they introduce race specific mounts.. I think seeing a lala/taru on an Ahriman will be freakin cute.

    Roegdryn/Galka.. not so much.


    Chocobo: Azuwyen
    Goobbue: Goobbue
    Ahriman: I hope to god you dont look as dumb as I think you look.
    Magitek: Robo

    Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means
