I’m needing a proper survivor/strong as fuck name.

(The dog was a puppy, and didn’t leave any puncture wounds. Just some pneumo thorocia, a lot of internal bruising, and a possible broken or bruised rib. She is currently planted firmly next to my leg on the couch with a hospital tent waiting for her when I go to sleep.)

Her name is furiousa!

      Oh this has real promise! I’m a fan of the genre and have had it for years from a humble bundle. I’m going to put energy into actually making progress right now!

      Edit: update I didn’t have it, but if anyone has a spare key, I have soooooo many unused ones to trade if anyone wants. I’ve been buying them since the first super meat boy one.

      Fuck the bullshit! I’m seriously considering “mankind” cause she is just as cool as homie!

      Seriously, look up his politics! Mankind, or the player behind him, is a pretty cool person by in large.

    I’m going to be boring and just say “Survivor”.

    Not just because she is one, because obviously she is, but because around the time of her ordeal(?), 7-9-ish hours ago, Parg’s “Survivor” was making it through Eurovision’s 2nd semifinal.

    Revenant.

    She’s gonna grow up and teach that pup a thing or two if she ever gets outside again.

    (you can call her Rev for short)

      This may sound a bit shallow but between elden ring and doom. I don’t think I could cause myself flashbacks everytime I say “wud up little (thing I secretly hate).”

      Still love the energy, and you get an updoot regardless!

      I love the literal interpretation! Neighbor footed the ~$300 vet bill and she just told me she thinks it should be “lucky”. I’m thinking calling this little shit that only in the neighbors presence. She will be an indoor only cat cause it’s a fairly rural area with tons of wildlife that will make her disappear in an instant.

    Ok my first suggestion got shot down. Here’s my next best (serious) suggestion.

    Weaver.

    edit: yes I went with that on purpose instead of Ripley because I have too many friends that named their animals Ripley.

      If we’re going with an Aliens vibe, why not choose Newt? Small, disheveled, survivor type…?

      I’m confused and just asking. Is this an aliens reference when Ripley took over a loader to fuck up the queen alien in number two?

      Sorry I’m on mobile (boost) and can’t see a good resolution image.

        Yeah, Ripley being the ultimate survivor (until she wasn’t, spoiler alert), but I know so many people that named their pet Ripley I felt Weaver was a better choice.

          No worries homie! She will definitely be not named Ripley. Although “black goo” ain’t out the question with how she is acting like Velcro with my ear.

      That nickname already belongs to my middle aged cat. Love them both, but they can’t share it.

      This has some fun potential: 8/ate, since she almost got ate. 8, one of the cylons from Battle Star Gallactica, she could have a nickname of Boomer, Athena or Sharon.

      I dig it. Like with “ocho cinco”, but with more thought put into it.
