General Thread: 'catbrow' Naming Brainstorm.

[arKRazor]

A shame that a certain construct already bears the moniker of Lynx.

[Heaven_Smile]

Aelurus or Aelurow. Aelurus, in Latin, means cat.

 

See: http://www.infoplease.com/dictionary/brewers/aelurus.html

[Pendragon1951]

Tigon is my suggestion

[(PSN)AchiXes]

Na'vi. inspired from avatar

[Shimonoki_Ryuji]

"Nekori", which is combined from Neko (cat) and Tori (bird).

 

Bird idea comes from the yellow-blue skin, that reminds me of tomtit, and the light-blue reminds of a peacock o.o

[Datsher]

The grineer one looks like a cut stuffed into a sausage skin... an oversized one

[Earz]

Moon Moon.

[HerculeanTusk]

Gata (greek name for cat, written in Latin letters)

[PookieNumnums]

Dala

 

 

Tufri

 

 

Chichinita

 

 

Ramhabe

 

 

Quetz

 

 

Kazoozle

[PookieNumnums]

Der Fürrier

 

 

Fixed that for you.

[Cpl_Facehugger]

What about Hunhow? I know it doesn't look anything like the Hunhow mask, but neither does Kubrow XD

 

This.

[Cyaminthe]

As I already said in other threads (sorry, I didn't notice there was a megathread for that), I think Meelin would suit their fish-cat appearance.

[Drufo]

I propose Ikata... it's a little variation of the word cat in Zulu. It contains the word kata, the "form" used in karate and other martial arts (and Tenno too: look at Nartas), a reference to the warrish (don't know if this word even exists XD) aspect of the animal: in fact I presume it has been breeded by Orokin for war just like kubrows.

Female: Morlana

Male: Mortheras

[(PSN)AchiXes]

Another simple name Griffin

[Lumireaver]

Hunhow, for sure. 

[(PSN)AchiXes]

Chimera

[Kaiservadin]

Here we have a thread that can be used to collect name ideas for the Catbrow.

 

Concept Art & Assets:

Brainstorm away, Tenno! Keep in mind we are just looking for ideas - we may end up settling on something internally, but we want to see what you can come up with!

I am going with Fubrow - F for feline

[Monsterwithin]

Phoenix The Cat

[pitakosxD]

felinas infernis and the combination name of felernis

[blazingcobalt]

I'm gonna go with 'Cahira'. (kaw-here-ah)

 

I went with something similar sounding to the word chimera. All of those concepts seems to branch into different animals such as birds, amphibians, and such.

 

Some examples using the Kubrow types;

 

Huras Cahira

Raska Cahira

Sunika Cahira

Sahasa Cahira

 

---

 

I gotta say though, these look pretty neat. Except the Grineer one... that one just looks like a Khezu-esqe abomination.

[Akavakaku]

Oh! What about Tatzel? From Tatzelwurm, a mythical cat serpent.

[Morec0]

What about Hunhow? I know it doesn't look anything like the Hunhow mask, but neither does Kubrow XD

 

I'm holding out for the Hunhow to be the birds myself.

 

 

Speaking of this, we need to consider the Grineer variant would have their own name separate from the regular.

 

I propose: Skirrt

[GhostSwordsman]

What about ugly?

 

Because that thing sure ain't pretty.

[Hyenasaurus]

Mohoao. (Means 'wild' in Maori).

 

Nubisian. (slight variation of 'Anubis'; while the god is represented as a Jackal, it's also the god of death which these things could easily be.)

 

Orora. (Of Oro- relating to Orokin and -ora as in the end of Tora, tiger in japanese.)

 

Shisi. (As the japanese guardian lions are called)

 

Paka. (Simply 'cat' in Swahili)

 

Alanees (Alley cat in Greek)

 

Garra (spanish for 'claw')

 

Enders. (self explanatory)

 

 

I'll add a few more in edits, hold up.
