I want to write a pirate story, but I need names. Gimme names or nicknames or titles for pirates (male OR female) and also names for crews, groups, and ships. Help a sister out. Please. And Thanks ahead of time, because I'm bad at responding to other people. thank
You could name them after the theme? for example I had a storyline as a kid about a flower princess who became a pirate, so I based all the names on flowers.
You could look up some rare fishes or shells and change those a bit for names?
Ochre is a cool name for a pirate girl.
@@jynandor Okay, Ochre is a really good name. I'd been struggling with one for my villain, so thanks!
Lisbit is another cool one
Maybe you should research various real life pirates and their crews for inspiration? Usually pirates were just really gay sailors who lost their jobs and were just normal people who came from various places so really they just had regular names, though prominent pirates did have names like Blackbeard, so just make them gay and if they've kicked enough ass, let them have dramatic names based on the color of their facial hair!
@Cryptidswearingcrocs That's true, I've been doing lots of research recently. And trust me, my pirates are definitely very gay
@alanye Sweet!Also, as a lesbian, I appreciate that!
@Cryptidswearingcrocs Oh trust me, sister, as a queer gal myself, I'm gonna make nearly ALL of my characters LGBTQ+.
@alanye Honestly,same. I think I only have one straight cis character and they only appear for around 2 scenes so yeah!
