Splashpaw analyzes some names that could negatively affect a warrior’s life
Hi! Iβm Splashpaw/pool and these are some names that could affect a kitβs life
1. Crookedkit:
We all know his name definitely affected his life. After he broke his jaw, his mother renamed him Crookedkit. This and his mother not caring about him was the reason Mapleshade came to him. Mapleshade made sure he got everything he ever wanted, but lost everything he cared for. But now, Crookedstar was a great leader, and has taken his place in StarClan
2. Stumpytail:
I donβt know if this name affected Stumpytail, but if I was named Stumpytail, itβd probably affect me. Who knows? Maybe he killed his leader π
3. Brokenkit:
Most of us know the real reason of Brokenkitβs name. Yellowfang named him that for the broken feeling in her heart. But a lot of the ShadowClan cats probably saw it as his crooked tail, and perhaps thought of it in a bad way. Between his name and Lizardstipe being a horrible mother to him, he was bound to become evil.
4. Lostface:
This name definitely affected Brightheart before she was called Brightheart. As Lostface, she lost courage and was always sad. Thanks to Bluestar, whenever she sees her reflection, sheβll always think of her first warrior name.
5. White-eye:
I donβt think this name affected White-eye but just because sheβs blind in one eye doesnβt make the name fine. Itβs an unkind name to name a cat. Same with One-eye, when she was called that, and I know she agreed to it, but I think deep down, she didnβt like it.
6. Halftail:
Iβm pretty sure he was fine with this name when he moved to the elderβs den, but if my tail got cut off, Iβd still keep my beautiful name, Splashpool.
7. Foxheart:
Letβs be honest, why would you want your name to be Foxheart? It would sound like you’re a bad cat. A Fox-heart.
8. Deadpaw:
We all love what Deappaw said in Tallstarβs Revenge. βMy paw may be dead but my spirit is strongβ or something like that. But what kind of mother would let the leader rename their kit to that? Poor Hopkit, I wish I knew what his warrior name wouldβve been if his name remained. At least his warrior name, Deadfoot, makes sense.
That’s all I could think of, but comment anyone I missed and what you thought!

What are your fav cats and what do they do
shhhh annoying brother
you two are siblings?!? also Cherryberry you named yourself that on purpose right it is SO FUNNY
I love this article! I agree with all of these, but personally, I think Lizardstripe should be on here.
I mean, I wouldn’t want my name to be Lizardkit.
but that name isn’t TERRIBLE! I could of added Onekit, Maggottail, Tigerkit (two) and ones that are worse
Tigerkit makes it sound like a strong kit who will be great leader
Hey Creationkit! Can I tell you something about the name “Lizardkit” and why someone would want it? Well, sorry if I can’t, but I’m going to anyways! So I used to have a friend who is half of my age, and, like me, is a cat person. I tried to get her into warriors, but she wanted to be called “Elizabeth”. I tried giving her good warrior names like Lilykit, Violetkit, Amberkit, Goldenkit, etc.. but she didn’t like them. She wanted Elizabeth. Then I heard her sister nickname her character “Lizzy” so that gave me an idea! My friend’s name could be Lizardkit! I told her and she instantly loved that name and asked every time: “Can I be Lizardkit?”
Love it!
Thanks
great article! I think Deadpaw said something like ‘My paw may be dead, but the rest of me is still alive!’ or something- either way it’s annoying to me how cats get named after injuries or accidents..
IKR! I hate when that happens to an injured cat!
Yep itβs annoyin
you put Deadpaw as Deappaw XD
I would love to see the unfairly renamed cat’s reactions to being called by their birth prefix, but warrior/leader suffix
Crookedstar/jaw would be Stormstar/jaw
Deadfoot would be Hopfoot
Halftail would be Sparrowtail
i always thought Stormjaw was nice! Also Hopfoot is pretty cool!
Yo Brokenkit was a bad cat he killed his sister about two heartbeats after he was born so he deserved it. Great article though!
I mean, yeah, he was horrible, but no one deserves such a mean name!
