I have been called a name stealer but I never stole that person's name, like, I was a character called Berry and somebody comes up to me and says it like this NAME STEALER!!! Like omg, I was like, ugh there are tons of characters with the same names, get over it. I was mad but I didn't say much to them.

I find it absolutely ridiculous that anyone would make a character based directly off of a "canon character" to begin with. All these Nalas and Simbas make me laugh, because it's obvious who the people with no creativity are. And then they go and have the downright nerve to claim that someone stole their character or design or name.

As for names, I also find it ridiculous, especially when that name is a common, everyday word (Rose, Berry, Feather, etc) a Warriors name (especially ones like Firestar, etc), anything Japanese, or a real name (Paul, Jason, etc) and someone claims that you are stealing their name. However, if their name was completely made up and didn't resemble another name or word at all, I think it would be justified to get a bit suspicious or even upset. I mean, if I saw another wolf running around with the name "Daedzurr" or "Cypherene" I know I would immediately be suspicious of them stealing my name because both are completely made up (smacked the keyboard and took letters I thought looked good together) and both quite long. It would be a very slim chance anyone would come up with them on their own. However, if someone had something like one of my shorter names "Haent" or "Gnar", I would probably just assume that we both did the same thing and ended up with the same result because those names are shorter.

  Yeah, Kyugima is a completely made up word. If I saw someone else with it I would go psycho at them. No, it's not japanese, it actually is made up. The Kyu is taken from Kyuubi, because when I made the word I loved Naruto (Still do,in a sense XD) but other than that it's pretty original. I'm pretty sure there could be words that sound similar, but not exactly the same. I worked hard on the name Kyugima.

i dont get mad when i see some people with the names that are common like will (dang it cant think of other names for my characters that are common XD i go for more unknown or lesser used names) its when i saw the person with the name sukira i got mad, once again, i just was thinking about avatar the last airbender watching something funny and here i am typing, i type sukira instead of sokka (dont ask why, was hyped up on mountain dew). i decided to take the name sukira and use it for my characters, i dont even TRY to copy others, i saw one with the name sakara and they thought i copied them with the name SUKIRA. i told them that i had made it up and eventually i blocked em because they would stalk me XD
I am not who I was when I last left here, from the years '11 through '13. I sincerely apologize for how rude and disrespectful I had been, and hope whoever I have wronged before can forgive my previous bad behavior.

Lololol, yeah. I mean, I wouldn't go psycho on them; that'd get nowhere. I'd just go over all nonchalantly and be like "Oh, hey. Cool name. Where'd you get it?" xD

I was in Flourite having a awesome time talking to randoms on General and then suddenly SmokeShadow(Something like that xD) Comes on General and starts screaming "OMG SMOKEY YOU STOLE MY NAME WHATS WRONG WITH YOU GAWD" And I'm like "Smokey is the name of my cat...xD I didn't steal it from you" and she kept going on and on about how 'Smokey' was her name only and she was using it on every site she was on(I do that too xD)and how she's had it since she was 7. xD By then all my random buddies had left...Dx

I remember that XD

Lol that happened once to me too XD! I got on as my multi-tasking wolfie (She's a demon, wherewolf, undead, pupkiller....and that's it she is just a rly mean werewolf X)) and her name is alpha killer. I just use her when i want to be evil and bored. Well i got her because there was a demon wolf and a wolf named Killer at Bonfire and i thought since were all evil that we could go eat pups :D! Unfortunately, Killer took my name the wrong way. I explained to him a thousand times that my name meant killer OF alphas (meaning i killed alphas), not the ALPHA of killers! But he kept yelling: "Copier Copier Copier!!!!". Ugh! he was so annoying that i blocked him. Well if he think I'm a copier, than he has to talk to all the OTHER Killers at Bonfire, as there are TONS!  L O L!
