No! Don't name your familiar 'Beaker'! Are you mad?! Next to 'Kenny' and 'Redshirt', that's the worst possible name to give a small, fragile, easily-smashed-into-a-pulp creature!

I'm stunned no one mentioned Odin's ravens!

Seriously though, how about Amontillado?


Adrian Beaky


My last Raven Familiar had a cockney accent and kept calling me "Boss" or "Guv", so how about Dodger?


Hugin or Munin, the ravens belonging to Odin in nordic mythology

Except Malachi Silverclaw, Tynor, Alisair Longreach, Grizzly the Archer, Imbicatus, Third Mind, and (even after you posted) Zautos, right?

I think that was the joke, yes...

In that case, I'd better mention them too. Odin had ravens! But I can't remember their names. ;)

Well now I want to make a Summoner with an Eidolon named Kenny. So that I can get upset when an enemy manages to take him down.

Corvus is Old Latin for Falcon...also the name of the boarding ramps that made Rome a naval power by inventing the Marines...ie taking their superior Infantry to the sea

Revolt on Antares was the minigame wasn't it?

That was the one, yeah

Heckle or Jeckle. If you don't remember them, look them up. Actually they're crows, not ravens, but it can be difficult to tell the difference from a distance.

I was thinking Lenore as well, but Vod Canockers beat me to it.

Don't recall seeing Craven on the rather lengthy collection of lists, so I'm throwing it out there. It sounds appropriate for a small, fragile, easily smashed-into-a-pulp creature.

And finally, how about

Raven Lunatic

"This is my bird, Bird"

-Nearyn


Two I am surprised not to have seen yet:

Morrighan - Celtic Goddess of the underworld who would collect the souls of great heroes personally in the form of a Raven (Also IS your Raven male of female?)

Roac - the wise old Raven in the Hobbit.

Carc - his dad.


Or three even.


Rear Admiral Figglesworth

How about Rantinin Raven?

Silver Crusade

I believe 'Branwen' means 'white raven', with 'Bran' meaning 'raven', in Welsh or Celtic or some other language from that family.

A white raven would be cool, but even more likely to get shot with arrows...

Sorry, just 1 out of 3.

Roac and Carc were already mentioned by Dragonchess Player


I like 'Abraxas'.

That's good.


IRL I had a cockatoo named Fogel. We lived in Germany at the time. Fogel is German for bird. SO when we would tell our german friends in German it was "My bird's name is 'Bird.'"


Anything norse or how about Caleb


Captain Beaky.

(OK, so originally it was a duck, but it's still a bird).
