A little help?

Okay. I'm a slow writer. I'm also flighty as all get out. I'm working on three different stories in three different 'verses, have four other 'verses in the planning stages, and I'm working on a huge batch of TF icons ( Read more... )

I kinda like Firefly myself.

I don't think it's that much of a problem to borrow names from obscure characters. Two of my characters share names with canonical TFs, which I was unaware of when I made them. But really, who here knows off the top of their head who the canonical Flash and Wildspark are? Or Firefly? ;}

*is pondering how cool it would be to have an online listing of various TF OCs, then realizes that is way off-topic*

*sheepish* I've been completely anal about checking and double-checking the different names. I don't want to nick a lesser-known character's name only to find his or her fans sitting in my inbox with baseball bats. -_-;;

That would be cool.

Yeah, usually I'm pretty good about making sure I'm not stealing names before I decide to use one myself. I even like to make sure I'm not stealing someone else's OC's name as well (which is part of the reason I wish there was a list of them somewhere XD), although I've done that on at least one occasion by accident. Most people are pretty forgiving about things like this though :}.

Very true.

Someone should do that. Really. Not me, of course -- I have too much on my plate at the moment. But someone really should.

I thought I had come across one at one time but I can't for the life of me find it now.

I could certainly do a very rough list if I had the webspace XD. I could dink around in my spare time maybe (lolz what spare time).

If you do it, I'll host the file on my site. ^^
