darkSpyro

Just post your nick-names for each one. If you get a new one or re-name, just edit your post!

You can also explain why they have the nick-name.

Mine:

-Spyro: "Little Spyro" (He has a halo, and I love Spyro. <3)
-Zap: "Zippy" (He zips around on his little water slide and wave.)
-Drobot: "Mr. Mechanical" (Adorable, indeed. First thing that came to my head when I got him. <3)
-Hex: "Demetria" (Thought it fit her pretty well.)
-Trigger Happy: "Chris" (He reminded me of my father. xD)
-Sonic Boom: "Alaina" (Reminded me of my mother. )
-Bash: "Rhinosuarus" (Three words: Soul. Gem. Power-up.)
-Stealth Elf: "(My real name)" (Temporary until I get Whirlwind, then that's me. )
-Chop Chop: "Bladed Warrior"
-Ghost Roaster: "The Dark Wizard" (Gave him the wizard hat, then sums up from there.)
-Flameslinger: "Perry" (One of my best friends. We've dated.)
-Dino-Rang: "Knight of Earth" (Gave him the spartan helmet, then it sums it up.)
-Terrafin: "Mr. T" (You can guess why.)
-Voodood: "The Shaman" (reminded me of a voodoo man, and a shaman.)
-Gill Grunt: "Triton"
-Stump Smash: -unnamed-
Wrecking Ball: "Bibbles"

I originally wasn't going to nickname mine, just because, and I've still been too lazy to do it, but here's my planned list. Not too many yet since my fiance and myself share a set and he's not had much of a chance to play so I'm saving 'his team' for him to play them first.

Kudos if you get the show and comic book references, and why they're in place. =P

Trigger Happy: Larfleeze
Zap: Branigan
Wrecking Ball: Nibbler
Drobot: Terminator
Stump Smash: The Thing
Ghost Roaster: Beetlejuice
Flameslinger: Drow-sy Chaperone

I don't nickname mine, but I've nicknamed Boomer 'Discruptive'.

For now:
Dino-Rang: Captain Rang
Stump Smash: Hula Smash

I havn't nicknamed any of mine.

Whirlwind - Stormee
Gill Grunt - Gills
Drobot - RobeBot

Quote: DantheDragonBoy

Dino-Rang: Vector

Oh come on, they don't look THAT similar! >:/

I haven't nicknamed any of mine officially yet, but I always call Spyro 'Spitz', anyway. I'll probably nickname the others later.

I only nick named a few of mine.

Zap(little adorable friend) is Aqua(originally named Zapper or Zappy)
Ignitor- Blaze
Whirlwind- Stormee
Boomer- Lt. Bob-omb
Bash- Prancy (Because he prances like a puppy)
Stealth Elf II- Invisibella
Sonic Boom- Guile (from Street Fighter)
Terrafin- Big Jaws
Flameslinger- Pizza Guy (When you use the flame dash he sounds like he is from Italy)
Eruptor- Hot Head

I have some names for the Unreleased ones too
Slam Bam- Mr. Furious
Warnado- KoopaParatroopa (or just Koopatroopa if the other doesnt fit)
Camo- Chikorita
Double Trouble- Uka-Uka

Thats all I got for now.

My Stump Smash: Treeman
This is all I can think of off the top of my head.

Spyro: Goonro.

I have only named 2 of the Skylanders i have. Hex is named "Bella Morte" and Ghost Roaster is named "Chuckles". Oh Hex you are so nifty.

Quote:

Trigger Happy: Larfleeze

We have a another winner!

Dino-Rang: Ty
I love Ty the Tazmanian Tiger (which I think that this is a refrence to)

Double Trouble- Uka-Uka
Strange, I was planning on naming mine Aku-Aku.

^
And I was gonna name mine Aku Uka

And I was going to name mine Facilier...

@Burning Gnorc

Ohh, I get where you got that from! That'd make a good fit.

Gill Grunt - "Gilly Grunty"
Terrafin - "Ripster" (Street Sharks anybody? )
Chop Chop - "Skeletor" (He-Man)
Flameslinger - "Firebrand" (WarCraft III)


I plan to nickname all of my characters at some point, but these 4 are really the only ones I've spent time playing

Dark Spyro- Night Shade
Wreaking Ball- Squishy
Zap- Sparky
Gill Grunt- *MrFish
Bash- Bam Bam
Terrafin- Captain Crunch
Sonic Boom- Screech
Whirlwind- La Gitana
Eruptor- Nachos
Trigger Happy- *Wario
Drobot- Steampunk
Stump Smash- Ent

*Named by my little cousin
EDIT: Also plan on naming Lighting Rod "Zeus" and Sunburn "Sunfire" I didn't want to nickname Spyro or Hex, and I'm thinking of what to nickname Stealth Elf, Cynder, and Camo :3

Spyro - Sindri (i got the name from a dragon book.)
Trigger Happy - Gunn (a charcter from Angel. plus, it suits him.)
Gil Grunt - Hydro Canon (a Pokemon move.)
Zap - Shockwave (two reasons: one, he has a lightening breath. two, he rides on water.)
Hex - Jinx (a character from Teen Titans.)
Dino-rang - Rex (only thing that came to mind, really, except for Dino.)

and that's all i have for now. i'll nickname others as i get them.

So far I've only named one of my Skylanders, Hex. I called her 'Valina'. (The evil witch chic from SRMTHFG). And I plan on naming Sunburn 'Azkiar', after a red firebird from Chris d'Lacey's book, Fire World. I'm only gonna bother naming them if I can think of something that actually makes sense.

Spyro: Skyro
Bash: AnkyloSWAG
Dino-Rang: StegoSWAG
Prism Break: Chromastone (Ben 10 Reference, as I would always mistakenly call PB that instead)
Sonic Boom: Gilda (MLP reference)
Stump Smash: Treebeard (LotR reference)
Gill Grunt: Seaspray (Transformers Reference, cause nobody likes Seaspray or Gill Grunt much)
Ghost Roaster: GentlemanGhost (DC Comics reference, I used the top hat to make GR a proper gent)
Trigger Happy: Sgt. Happy (Used the combat helmet)
Drobot: Grimlock (Transformers reference)
Flameslinger: Hobgoblin (Spider-Man reference)
Boomer: Hoggle (Labyrinth reference)

Our tongue build Wrecking Ball is named Little Snorter, after the baby nickname we have for our son. Why? They're both little balls of equal parts cuteness and insatiable hunger. Hah.

Other than that, though, we haven't done any, but that doesn't mean we won't.

I plan on not nicknaming any of them except for when I get Dark Spyro and the Legendary skylanders.

Very proud someone got this reference. The 'mines' settled it as soon as I played him.

SOME ONE GUESS WHY I NAMED TERRAFIN MR. T.

JUST GUESS

Because he reminds you of him?

At least, when I first saw Terrafin, and heard his voice, I was like, "Mr. T, is that you?"

EXACTLY

And the fact that he just has the looks and moves for it. He's like the animal version of Mr. T.

SO MUCH AGREE.

The names I can not state as they are very very mature.

Dino-Rang: Roadkill from Twisted Metal 2. Roadkill's special is a boomerang.


And I was going to name my Double-Trouble Aku-Aku, too.

Oh ya Azkiar, Fire World is a great book, and I didn't think of that name either haha. I have books 1-6 and excited for book 7, The Fire Ascending i think.

^I found the cover for Fire Assending on Chris d'Lacey's blog, here's the link. http://zookiesnotepad.blogspot...-ascending.html

why am i not surprised

Spyro: None, He already has the best name
Triggy: Goldfinger
Wrecking Ball: Sprinkles
Drobot: Sharpshooter
Bash: Richter
Zap: Waterslide

For Trigger Happy: Dante from Devil May Cry 4 and his 666 guns
Gill Grunt: Firefighter
spyro: nothing
and im planning on these names
Drobot : 01001101 (binary M)
ignitor : Flameman
chop chop : deadman or deadknight
terrafin: ripster (streetshark and he is blueish)
cynder: nothing
sunburn: Fawkes
stealth elf: ninja
Whirlwind: idk
drill seargent : CHOOCHOO
but those are the names so far

Since I got the PS3 version, I was finally able to nickname the ones I have.

Dark Spyro = Dark Falz
Legendary Spyro = Olga Flow
Whirlwind = Rainbow Dash
Sonic Boom = Sonic Rainboom
Stealth Elf = Teyla
Trigger Happy = Yosemite Sam
Drobot = Iron Dragon
Bash = Spike
Zap = Neptune

Those are all I remember. I didn't nickname regular Spyro, Ignitor, or Gill Grunt.

And if anyone can guess all the references, I'll be amazed (some I feel are obvious; others...not so much).

Slam Bam: Machamp (Pokemon)
Gill Grunt: Napoleon (With Hat)
Spyro: Hero
Trigger Happy: Goldlicker
Stealth Elf: Pointy Ears
Boomerrospector
Voodood: Wicked

Trigger Happy: Mr. Yamato (domo arigato)

Legendary Spyro: Dynomy (Reminds me of my OC. Yes, it's my username...)

Trigger Happy: Crash (Based off Crash bandicoot. They both have orange fur, both can be considered crazy. It makes sense to me!)

I prefer to keep their normal names
..Im boring

I name my skylanders according to a certain pattern that has something to do with my internet username. Can you spot it?

Spyro: "SpyroNaut"
Gill Grunt: "GillNaut"
Trigger Happy: "TriggerNaut"
Prism Break: "PrismNaut"
Eruptor: "EruptoNaut"
Voodood: "VoodooNaut"
Stealth Elf: "StealthNaut"
Sonic Boom: "SonicNaut"
Zap: "ZapNaut" (but i'm thinking I might rename him something like "SlimeNaut" because of the upgrade path I chose for him.)

Likewise, I plan to name the future skylanders I haven't got yet with the following:
Ignitor: "IgnitoNaut"
Dino-Rang: "DinoNaut"
Cynder: "CynderNaut"
Camo: "CamoNaut"
Warnado: "'NadoNaut" (I may rethink this one)


So, did you spot the pattern I was naming my skylanders with!? It was very subtle, so I'll tell you the answer for those who didn't guess:
The pattern was that all of my skylanders' names begin with capital letters!
Unlucky if you didn't get it!


Aaanyway, on a different note; I'm surprised no one has named a Hex after the disney villain Maleficent. I always thought Hex reminded me of her.

I dont like nicknaming my skylanders, but my Terrafin's unofficial nickname is "Chuck Noris" because of the chuck noris' joke of him being able to swim through land.(get the joke/comparrison? lol)

I have 14 Skylanders and have named all of them! I'm getting 8 new ones soon as well!

Spyro: BahamtX (same as my username)
Gill Grunt: Poseidon
Trigger Happy: Goldore
Drobot: Dynamo
Flameslinger: Meteor
Stump Smash: Willow
Bash: Terra
Zap: Levias
Hex: Hocus
Dino-Rang: Snikey (made it up!)
Eruptor: Inferno
Chop Chop: Knightmare (lol! Knight and nightmare together!)
Sonic Boom: Gryffin (might change her name later)
Wrecking Ball: Wyrm

8 more I'm getting!:
Whirlwind: Twister
Drill Sergeant: Bulldozr
Double Trouble: Tiki
Stealth Elf: Shyla
Voodood: Warlok
Boomer: Troleblaze
Prism Break: Quartz
Cynder: Zelda (wanted her name to be special and I'm a big Zelda fan)

Dang, I'm clearly taking this aspect of the game too seriously.

I usually name them the Marvel way....

Eruptor: Meltdown
Flameslinger: Surefire
Ignitor: Caliburn
Boomer: Trollfoot (Thanks, Danny DeVito!)
Drill Sergeant: Fullbore
Drobot: Vic Viper
Trigger Happy: Crackshot (Because he is on crack.)
Bash: Avalanche
Dino-Rang: Outback
Prism Break: Stonebrow
Terrafin: Hammerhead (Yes, I know full well he isn't one.)
Chop Chop: Warblade
Ghost Roaster: Skullivan
Hex: Charmcaster
Gill Grunt: Anchorpoint
Zap: Shockwave
Stealth Elf: Whisper
Stump Smash: Deadwood
Sonic Boom: Kerrigan (her babies just remind me of Zerglings!)
Whirlwind: Stormwatch
Dark Spyro: Skyshadow
Spyro: Spyro (*shrug*)
Voodood: Spellbreaker
Wrecking Ball: Roadbuster

I named Gill, Chop, and my new Wrecking Ball now. c:
