Name Nightshade! [Poll]
🕑 Added 2016-06-17 03:16:38 +0000 UTC Okay, this is an odd one - over the years, I've thought of different names to give Nightshade. You know, her real name. I can't decide, and I need opinions!I know what her last name will be (but I'm keeping it secret for now). However, her first name has always eluded me. Since Londoners has started, and she'll eventually make an appearance, I need to finally settle on a name.
I've made a poll, compiling a list of names for her I think are viable options. Help me by picking a name you think suits her best. I will look at the top choices and mull it over. Also, if you feel her name *should be* Nightshade, that's fine too. I mean, there are far weirder names out there, but I always figured it was a stage name she took.

Nope!
Demerlisher
This is probably going to sound stupid but is Nshade based off a real person?
Lee
I have to second that.
Kadath
She chose that name for herself, as her work name.
Kadath
All I'll say is her last name starts with an 'A' :3
Real1
Can I see her last name cause I'm choosing her name based off of her Highschool look
Real1
I have to ask how did she get the name nighsthade if not from her parents.did she just start calling herself that is a nick name or did she get it from work
Kadath
Mmm, I dunno if she strikes me as a Cleo. I'm worried that'd be a bit cliched, too.
Voodoo Antelope
Cleo, a more modern take on Cleopatra maybe?

Ohhhh, thank gods. I would have been so sad! But, that makes sense! Too bad I can't revote; though, I certainly love Nightshade being her given name, so.. *shrugs*
Kadath
XD
Baltarus
And here I thought her surname was Mistress, last name Nightshade
Kadath
I'm not revealing it yet ;3 And this is to determine her first real name.
Kadath
Haha, I have a relative named Donna. That would be awkward XD
Kadath
Yeah, what bLa said - I just need to finally settle on her birth name.
Real1
Wait what's her last name cause I don't know her real name
Trey Keele
Kari sounds like a nice exotic name
bLa
I like Nadia tbh, it suits her
bLa
She's still gonna be nicknamed Nightshade. It's just that Kad hasn't thought about giving her a REAL birth name.
Aleksandr Romanov
I'd miss Nightshade's name... Like... I've really grown attached.
Xaq
Maybe split it to a first and middle name? "Bella Donna [last name], you get your sorry butt down here this INSTANT young lady!" (Nothing brings that feeling of doom quite like the Full Name Ultimatum.)
Joel Kreissman
Another reason for her not to use her real name then.
FastFoodBun
I chose Nell. Probably not common for this kind of naming but it's smaller than Belladonna. To me it's way too long.
MaxxDoutt
And why would you have to shorten it to Bella? Could go with Donna. XD
MaxxDoutt
It'd definitely have to be one you could imagine an Egyptian (or just African, in general) woman having. I wound up picking Nadia for that reason, though Belladonna was a close second.
RaptorC
Nope cant pick anything....odd
Memerk
I like that name.
Kadath
I have her last name already set up, so I'm just trying to figure out her first. Also, her fur is dyed - she's naturally brown! (It's shown in an Ask Puz n Pals, where she holds up a photo of her as a teen haha)
Kadath
I'm wary of calling her Bella, though XD 'Oh Edward!!'
Kadath
That's bizarre, as there's zero restrictions O.o
RaptorC
For some reason I can not vote in this...odd

Y'know...I'm kinda partial to Nightshade being her last name. Like everyone calls her that and only a select and very trusted few know her first name. It would certainly match her colorations for a last name to, a genetic marker to the name.
Joel Kreissman
I'm thinking Belladonna since it's another name for nightshade but I think it's also an actual female name, and an embarrassingly girly one.
Kadath
Belladonna is also known as deadly nightshade ;3
Kadath
Don't think so, haha XD
Kadath
Lol! Naw, I mean, it COULD be, but it'd be a very strange name XD
Kadath
Thanks!
Kadath
Oh she'll still go by that, but I need to give her a birth name too ;3
Pavel
Maybe keep Nightsade as her nickname? Like, what her friends are used to call her?
Tyro Thunderdrone
I think belladona suits her, it's a poisonous plant, but in small doses it was used to make italian women's pupils seem larger and more attractive, also it means pretty lady or something in italian
D3sp3rato
Is there an Egyptian Goddess of Dominatrix? Should be that name!
Muddypaws
I like the choices you provided.
Silvador
I... honestly always thought that -was- her name. o:
