Name Is Fine. Period.

[SIDESTRE4M]

Forget the names from books, films, etc.

 

WTF is going on with you guys?

[Guest]

You forgot this OP:

 

[Dtexas]

The name just doesn't fit compared to how the other frames have been named. Pretty much every frame has been named around the theme of what they are. The name just sounds weird and doesn't fit. There are a ton of other possibilities that would have made much more sense and fit much better for a water frame.

[Deidaku]

???

 

What 

 

If you're talking about Hydroid it's fine but could have been better = CHarybde or scylla  , mythological sea monsters

Well it's not like they could call it Zoidberg.

 

[size=2]But imagine if they did though...[/size]

Or Squidward.

I don't think many people were happy with the "necro-frame" being named Nekros, but now look. People will get over it.

[SIDESTRE4M]

Just call him Wateron then.

 

Because WATERon. WATER -> ON!

 

Haha, lame.

[Brahmastra]

I don't understand it either, I don't like Valkyr or Zephyr either yet you don't hear me whine about it.

PERSONAL OPINION PEOPO.

[LxLawliet]

For me, it doesn't sound very original (just like Nova's name). Why not taking a name from mythology, like Poseidon?

 

[size=2]Cthulhu. Cthulhu is a good name.[/size]

[Guest]

Cthulhu. Cthulhu is a good name.

 

A copyrighted name.

[SIDESTRE4M]

Why don't people get, that naming a frame from a character of a book, of a story of its own, is super lame...

[OblivionNecroninja]

I'm not a fan of the names most people have suggested, but I'm even LESS of a fan of "hydroid"

Hydroz or Hydrozoa would have been fine (it's still named after the same thing, but doesn't sound like a dumb made up sci-fi word anymore). 'Hydros' would also have been better

That said, the new frame does have a VERY "Davey Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean" look to him, so I understand all the reference names people have suggested.

A copyrighted name.

Cthulhu is from Lovecraft. To the best of my knowledge he did not copyright that name.

[Ratisfaction]

I like it, plus it's just a name

[OblivionNecroninja]

A copyrighted name.

Nope. That's why everybody uses Cthulhu. Lovecraft's copyrights are hella expired.

[Alberto1398]

Or leviathan

Okay, I can be wrong. In any case, I think that name's been used far too much. Not like I won't be referring to the new frame as Cthulhu, but I still think even Hydroid is better than that.

A lot of people liked Nekros as a name actually, as it was... well Necro (death), with a tiny twist.

Hydroid however, just makes me think of a hyper Droid, not a Warframe.

Or a Droid on weed.

It sounds to me like a bad alien name.

[SirAuron]

People should be looking at their own usernames for a change.

Ouch.

[tahrox]

Let's call him hydrosis, so he sounds like some sort of bad disease.

[Nadhua]

Yeah not too sure what to suggest but hydroid does sound a bit too mechanical, at least to me. powers look like fun at least
