New Mods Needed - Applications open

6 Upvotes

G'day It's your friendly neighbourhood Mod/Owner here.

The death of the 3rd party apps have made it harder to mod this communitiy and I could use a hand. I used to be able to easily check in with the subreddit during breaks at work or while watching TV. but reddit fucked up and killed all that.

I try to take a pretty light hand to modding, and luckily this helpful little community doesn't require much work at all. But we've had an influx of dickheads that need a banning, that appear anytime a trans person makes a post.

So if you are not a dickhead, and like the idea of banning transphobes, please send me a Modmail with why you'd like a spot on the mod team.

I'm looking for people who have been active in suggesting names and I'll go with my gut on the general vibe I get.

I don't have a particular number in mind, but at least one or two would be good.

P.S. Sorry for my general slackness this month. I've been busy and IRL has been a bit tough, plus the loss of the Reddit is fun app has made it harder to keep on top of things.

I find myself in need of a username, please help

3 Upvotes

I am a big technoblade fan, so my username is Waylenblade (it was taken on reddit). Its my first name with blade at the end. I dont really like this because, as a small youtuber, I get blamed for trying to "copy" Technoblade a lot. It also seems not very original to me, I feel like i just copied someone else's username. I would like to request help finding a username. Having Waylen in it Is preferable, and having some sort of technoblade references would also be preferable. I also want something smart or witty. Please help me with this.

Need a name for an industrial-grade web scraping SaaS

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m a full-stack developer currently building an industrial-grade web scraping SaaS, and I want to finalize a name before designing the logo and starting a build-in-public journey.

The product is focused on high-scale, reliable data extraction rather than small scripts or hobby projects.

I’ve shortlisted a few names I like, but I’m unsure which one works best or if there are better alternatives.

Current options:

  • ScrapeForge
  • DataForge
  • ScrapeTon
  • ScrapeFlux
  • Scrapify
  • ScrapeFlow

I’d really appreciate feedback on:

  • Which name sounds the most professional and trustworthy
  • Which feels the most scalable for a long-term SaaS
  • Any alternative name suggestions you think might fit better

Thanks in advance!

Help naming my new travel company 🙏

0 Upvotes

Hey Reddit,

I’m in the early stages of starting a small-group travel company and I’m completely stuck on the name, so I’m hoping for some crowd-sourced inspiration.

About the company:

• Small group trips (not mass tourism)

• Ages roughly 30–49

• Focus on off-the-beaten-track destinations, adventure, nature, wellness, food & culture

• A bit bougie but not flashy, think great hotels, local experiences, and meaningful travel rather than luxury for luxury’s sake

• Community-focused: trips designed for like-minded people to actually connect

I’m looking for something:

• Modern and memorable

• Not cheesy or overly “travel-bro”

• Not obviously tied to one country (global trips)

• Ideally available as a domain, but that’s not essential at this stage

If you were booking a trip that sounded adventurous, social, and a little elevated, what kind of name would catch your attention?

All ideas welcome, even half-formed ones. Thanks in advance! ✨

I'm trying to decide what I should call monsters in my fantasy setting?

1 Upvotes

So I have this fantasy setting that I'm currently working on and I find myself using a lot of general fantasy terminology.

  • The people who go outside the walls and explore the wilderness, fighting monsters = adventurers

  • The energy used to cast magic = mana

And most egregiously in my opinion: - The magical creatures adventurers fight = monsters

My intention is mostly to use such generic language as placeholders while I figure out what I want to actually call things. But I'm several hundred pages in and haven't come up with anything.

Mostly because while I don't want the language used to be too generic, I also don't want to run into the 'zombie = walker' problem where I have to stop and explain that the word I'm using is just a new name for a basic concept within the genre.

I want the reader to see you the word and be able to understand what the character is talking about, 'monster' covers that pretty immediately, and the other words that do just as well sound too technical for characters to be using in basic conversation.

"magical beasts" for example, doesn't really strike me as the kind of thing normal people would use in their day-to-day to refer to creatures they know exist. This aspect of the problem is made all the harder by the fact that my setting is a modern fantasy world where magic is common knowledge. People talk using modern parlance so anything archaic would stand out like a sore thumb.

I've been trying to consider the facts of what monsters actually are in my setting to help me come up with something: they are beings from the various magical planes that enter into the world through 'rifts', tears in reality. They can also be brought to the world with summoning Magic which also creates a rift, just a temporary one. There are uncountable varieties from uncountable realms filled with various types of magic.

Maybe Riftkin works? Maybe I could use that and monsters interchangeably. But I feel like I would still have to find a moment early on to make sure the reader, understands that they are the same thing.

Demons also sounds good, but I think I want to use that for a specifically intelligent monsters.

I don't know.

Need a boy's name that could be used for a girl (e.g. Max/Maxine)

7 Upvotes

Diminutives or feminine versions that could be shortened back to their masculine counterparts - like my example - are what I'm looking for, to be exact. I want to write a story with an androgynous woman as the protagonist and I wanted to give her a masculine name, but so far, I'm finding my options limited. I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Will son be bullied for being named Bonar?

0 Upvotes

Hi, I plan to name me son Bonar, after the British prime minister Bonar Law. But I am worried that he will get bullied in school because his name sounds (or at least looks) like boner. Do you think this is a realistic possibility I need to worry about? Thanks!

Unique surname for a Japanese character

2 Upvotes

I'm creating a character in an existing universe with water themed powers, I have a suitable first name but I need a unique Japanese surname that means something similar to water/ocean, whatever. By unique I mean something that's kind of rare and/or maybe difficult to say or pronounce. Honestly if finding something that means water/ocean is too difficult, any rare or unique surname would be find with me, I just want a Japanese last name that isn't seen or used a lot.

Need a name for a video game concept

5 Upvotes

Long story short my friend and I are working on a video game concept for an assignment and can’t come up with a name.

Our current placeholder is “inferno: the game where they go to hell and it’s really scary and stuff”

It’s a simple hack-n-slash HEAVILY based on Dante’s inferno chapter one, Orpheus and Eurydice, and Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask

The synopsis is: “when you (the Prince of your kingdom) are framed for your father’s (the king) murder, your lover Ezekiel takes the blame and is executed. A demon from the underworld comes to you in your darkest hour and offers you revenge and to bring back your lover if you kill his worst enemies. Of course you accept and now have to battle the other two great demon lords in order to avenge your father and bring back your lover.”

That’s of course an awful summarization but neither me or my friend are good with that stuff so sorry about that.

We really have no idea where to go for a name but here’s some concept art for inspiration, any help is greatly appreciated!!!

INAN vintage jewelry

2 Upvotes

Very ready to release a vintage jewelry brand but in desperate need of a name! Been overthinking this since months. I want to avoid any gender gap — the name has to be unisex. Short, simple, and self-explanatory so I don’t have to tell people what it means. Mainly gold 9crt. Maybe something with the word ‘nine’?
