the wild woods warrior names One of the most important identifications a warrior has besides their Clan is their name. Whether it is sung with glory or whispered in fear, a warrior's name is a verbal representation of who they are - so much so that when it is no longer fitting of their appearance, personality, status, or skill level, it changes. Ceremonies are held in celebration and recognition of obtaining or changing one's name. To say that names are a crucial aspect of the Clans' culture would be an understatement.
Warrior Name GuideBelow is a list of name components - both prefixes and suffixes - that are acceptable in this role-play community. Striving to achieve realism is a necessary aspect of any role-play, and thus the names must also be realistic. It is in no way an exhaustive list; in fact, it can be added to and reshaped. If you would like to suggest an addition to this list, please fill out the form located in the Prefix/Suffix Recommendation thread.Warriors first receive their prefix which is often based off of what the kit in question looks like or what the queen first sees when the kit is born. Leopard, Lion, and Tiger might be given to kits whose queens hope they grow up to become graceful, valiant, or ferocious. Suffixes are used to exemplify their personality or physical quickness, such as speed or strength.
Have a name you want to see added? Fill out the form below and reply to this thread to have it be considered for incorporation!

-moth as a suffix!
Reasoning: The Clans are familiar with moths, lest it wouldn't be a prefix! This could be used on cats with mottled/dappled pelts, not unlike that of a moth's telling wing. It could also be used on flighty cats, or those with enigmatic but alluring mannerisms. Associated Prefix Category/Associated Suffix Category: Appearance and/or Personality

I feel Coyote- and Jackal- should be added as prefixes, because even though they do not live in the UK, neither do wolves, lions, tigers, or leopards! I feel it would give members more creative freedom with their names and not every fourth brown cat is going to have the same prefix at least.

Quartz and Citrine, as prefixes.
— Quartz is a particularly common stone, and more easily spotted than flint, coal, or amber in any given environment (flint is also a type of quartz). Typically, it would denote a white coat, but as quartz comes in a variety of forms, the colours encompassed grow considerably. For instance, smokey quartz may cover a deep grey, black, silver or smokey coat, where quartz with hematite inclusions (clear or white crystals with streaks, spots, or large patches of red/orange) can go on to reference a calico cat. That said, the prefix overall would likely go on to reference white, silver/grey, black, and tortoiseshell/calico fur.
— Citrine is the yellow or orange variety of the stone, appearing at times as dull as a light taupe, or in vibrant, golden shades. It would likely denote a brown, cream/golden or ginger/red coat. Agate and Onyx, as prefixes.
— Agate is a widespread, globally-occurring mineral, noted equally to be found fairly easily within the UK. If sparseness is at all mentioned, it wouldn't be in regard to these stones, nor their mentions. In line with quartz (and forms of such), they're typical household names or those that are learned quickly in any crystal or mineral-based spheres, if not quicker than elements such as flint in both cases. It comes in a massive plethora, and henceforth may relate to any variety of fur uniquely.
— Onyx behaves akin to the quartz-citrine/quartz-amethyst relationship as a "child" of agate. Onyx as a name in particular has a similar wide basis. Iconically, and more frequently utilized, it covers black and bicolour cats (e.g. snowflake and banded onyx). But it then extends to brown and even red/ginger coats (see here) in more standard occurrences (albeit more nichely recognized), and may even refer white and cream coloured cats ( here).
Shale and Chalk, as prefixes.
— Similar to the argument with quartz, shale is widespread most remarkably throughout Europe and the Americas, found as the dried and solidified form of clay in shelves or fragmented within soil. It is more easily encountered than the aforementioned stones of example, and naturally on similar foot to the well-recognized clay. In terms of coat, it would reference grey and brown sorts usually, but could also go on to reference red fur.
— Chalk is not as common, but still easily spotted among stones. The white limestone is formed through shell debris, and is found most especially in the UK. Naturally, this would only apply to white or predominantly white fur (e.g. calico). As a footnote, it's worth mentioning flint often occurs within chalk or similar limestones.
Jasper and Jet, as prefixes.
— A quick pair to mention in latency to the other stones. These two are not the most common, but still both found regionally, applicably within the Warriors-verse. Moreover, the pair can both denote specific colours as quickly as they can their origin stones. Jasper would cover cream/gold and red/orange pelts, where Jet would apply strictly to black fur.
Drop, as both prefix and suffix.
— A drop of water, a very small thing. The nameowner may be a white, or very silver cat, or very little in stature (Other/Rename). Too, as a rename, they may posses milky or watery eyes, or a dripping nose.
— As a suffix drop addresses a shy, or fickle character; the brief or reserved type. A drop is a changeable, yet fragile element. It may also denote a finesse in group work, as a number of drops will eventually create a pool, and later a lake. Or, it may be found with cats possessing spots and a "drop" of colour. Henceforth, -drop may be used as a Personality, Skill, or Appearance-based suffix.
Cascade and Fall, as prefixes.
— A cascade is a minuscule waterfall, and also refers any form of liquid downpour, where fall addresses a similar sort of story (perhaps as the marryment between Cascade- and Rain-). Cats bearing the names would likely be grey/silver or white in colouration, though this pair may also fall within realm of Other alongside Flood- and Lake-.
Zephyr, as both prefix and suffix.
— Used in the same context as Breeze and Gale.
Mirage, as both prefix and suffix.
— Referencing quality of coat. As a mirage is the well-known optical illusion of a false sheet of water, it takes form as a particularly lustrous coat at birth or youth, or the appearance of a "hidden" quality, such as "rusting". In this way, the prefix applies soley to the colours black and brown, as the are capable of this with particularly dark shades. It may also extend to those with noteworthy dark patches (e.g. tortoishells) or more rarely to colourpoints (e.g. kittens that are white at birth, but begin to adopt colour as they grow; façade of all-white fur at birth). Can also fall into Other.
— In reference to suffixes, the hidden or specifically misleading quality is better preferred literal in the choice of naming, as it may denote deceit, cunning, and deception within a character for better and worse, or perhaps a particular skill in mimicry or trickery. It would fall into the category of Personality, and perhaps skill, and this may also be utilized in the form of a (prefix) rename. In other cases, for the same reasons it is used as prefix, it can be given to the Appearance section. Glint, Glimmer, and Luster, as prefixes and suffixes.
— Each possess similar function to Mirage- as a native prefix, but would not cover further than a shine, or the faux appearance of such as in the fur they would denote only that. A cat may be assigned either perhaps not for their inherent deep, reflective coat, but for dark coats streaked or blotched in white to give way to a similar appearance. It may also go on to denote a coat swathed in colour, vibrant or otherwise. In this way it most specifically would likely refer to black, bicolour, calico/tortoishell cats, and brown or grey cats (e.g. for numerous colours, as they are usually divided into several when particularly saturated). As rename it can refer to milky or watery eyes; can also be within the Other section.
— Function in the same mode as prefix usage in suffix form, applying to Appearance. Glimmer and Glint might refer Personality if selected, for optimistic, faithful or generally buoyant types. (" A glimmer of hope".)
Kite, as a prefix and suffix.
— Kites are a subfamily of raptors, and fall into the larger Accipitridae alongside hawks, eagles, harriers, vultures. Best recognized as red and black kites, both pass through Europe annually or in the case of red kites chiefly, take residency in the UK. The formermost is a large ruddy bird with black-tipped, white primaries and a white head and tail. The black kite is wholley dark brown in colour, with deepened tip-tones and spots of white. For cats, these birds note brown, bicolour, red/orange, and tortoiseshell/calico cats.
— As a suffix, it behaves the same as -hawk.
Oriole, as a prefix.
— A small yellow passerine with black wings and streaks beside their eyes, and in some cases have white spots on their wings. A single species visits the UK in the summertime that sometimes nests during its visit. Cats with this prefix would be cream/golden, red/orange, bicolour, or calico/tortoiseshell.
Wigeon, as a prefix.
— Eurasian wigeons are a form of duck, of which are resident breeders and wintertime visitors to the region. They are brown in colour, though the males possess white backs and foreheads, and a red head. Applies to brown and calico/tortoiseshell cats.
Chough and Jackdaw, as prefixes.
— A pair of blackbirds similar to rooks and crows. They are both residents and breeding species in the country. Refer to black pelts; Jackdaws may also cover smokey-furred cats due to their silvery napes.
Dipper, as a prefix.

I think that we should add Cheetah, which is a prefix!
Reasoning: I mean, we have Lion- and Leopard- which are not anywhere near Great Britain in the wild, so I don't see why we can't have Cheetah- as well cheetah best feline Associated Prefix Category/Associated Suffix Category: Cream/Golden, Ginger/Red, Tortoiseshell/Calico and Other

I think that we should add Petal, which is a prefix (but could also be a suffix, like Rosepetal in the books)!
Reasoning: Since warriors know about all kinds of flowers and blossoms, they definitely know about petals! Petal is actually a suffix given in the books as well (Petalnose of SkyClan, two different cats named Petal, a cat in DoTC named Dew Petal, etc). Associated Prefix Category/Associated Suffix Category: Ginger/Red, Tortoiseshell/Calico, Cream/Golden

I think that we should add Pumpkin-, which is a Prefix!
Reasoning: I believe it'd be a similar prefix to Sheep-, as in the clans could've run into pumpkins at some point and the name became more common over time. Associated Prefix Category/Associated Suffix Category: Ginger/red
