Piggie Naming Attribution

I'd like to know who gives piggies really clever names.
I'd also like to know who gives piggies really annoying, dumb, or repetitive names.

I think animal names should come with attribution, the way that notes do.

  • Good idea; might address some of the "bad name" QQ.

  • I name my animals (hopefully) creative names. Just see my housing street.
    And what do you consider dumb names? "a"? Animals that are all named the same thing? Political campaign ads?

  • @AwesomeCardinal -- It's really not about what does or doesn't annoy me particularly. It's about having people "sign their work."

  • It could go on the "info" screen.

  • Yes! This! I'd like to know who named that one piggy "Moriarty is real" and shower them with kisses and walloping big diamonds.
    But, I'm afraid people would harass griefers like that one glitch who names all the piggies Max!

  • @Dorothy Gale:
    If you've seen "Moriarty is real" on Marlan Bias, you might like to know there used to be a whole "set" including "I believe in Sherlock" ;-)) but lately only the 4-5 main characters remains as the piggies keep disappearing.

  • Hurray for the creativity of great pig names everywhere! One of my favorites ever was "Ham Solo."

  • While I have no objection tot he idea, that seems like ALOT of data to keep track of over time

  • great idea.  putting this on the info screen is also an excellent idea, as it would be unobtrusive but there if you needed it.  plus they are already keeping track of this data, so it shouldn't be that difficult to implement.

  • I would like to up the ante. I want Piggie *Lineage*.

    I want to know what name the piggie ever bore and who created fed the pigglet, who hatched the pig from the egg, and who seasoned the egg. And where the egg was harvested. And who planted the tree.

    This kind of meta data will one day prove invaluable to identifying who the terrorists *really* are.

  • HeyGabe!  That could also lead to some pigs being more valuable than others!  So we could have true pig breeding operations.

    "This pig come from a long line of piggies raised by generous and kind glitches originating from an egg seasoned and hatched by Stoot himself!  450Kc, thank you."
