The goal of this thread is to guess the theme of namechanges I'm giving out. The only clues will be the namechanges themselves. If you guess the theme correctly and specifically, you can choose any unclaimed name that fits that theme, then I will start over with a new theme. If you don't guess correctly but you make a good guess, you get a namechange. Only good guesses get namechanges in this thread.

Note that when I refresh the thread, if I see three good guesses I'm only going to reward the best one and maybe there will be another even better guess by the time I do that namechange, sucks for those other two guys and that doesn't mean their guesses were bad but that's how this is going to work.

Ok, start guessing. I will quote the people whose names I change, those are the clues.

Did you change Vorik's name yet or not I don't understand what's going on here.

yes
edit: this is a rules clarification not a namechange, "Whirlwind Jones" is not a clue.

no, the guess was wrong, but getting closer.

This is a rules clarification; "humpthewind" is not a namechange and NOT a clue.

You can choose any ensign to be named after, or none I guess for this one since it was just a spur of the moment theme

Well, the next theme I was thinking of was to combine part of the username of the person who registered before you and part of the one who registered right after, but after some testing that's extremely hit-and-miss for making good namechanges so I'm going to think of another.
