| With the advent of this newest Monster Hunter, I'm sure there is a detail that everyone has noticed, and probably had some fun with. This is, of course, the ability to create a Palico. And what good is an awesome cat backup buddy if it doesn't have an awesome cat backup buddy name, like Charles or Mr. Prettywhisker.
So, what did you name your magnificent little felyne friend?
As for me...
I decided to take my inspiration from mythology, particularly Egyptian, and name him after the cat form of the sun god Ra. I didn't notice that it was also an Onomatopoeia until afterwards.
His name, is Mau.

| I repeat the sentiments I mentioned earlier of being reminded of Overlord Mao of Disgaea.
My main Palico is Found, a play off of Lost. All of my cats are named about the same things. Map, Compass, Travel, etc. | |

| I hadn’t noticed the resemblance to Lord Mao’s name. That’s cool. Rangeth better keep a close eye on his Hunter title though. He wouldn’t want his cat taking it.
My Palico is named Byakko, the Romanization of the Japanese name for the White Tiger of the Chinese Constellations and guardian of the west. I figured he’d end up being awesome enough to be named after the Constellational version of the King of Beasts, and so far he has not disappointed. | |

| I was tempted to call it "Neko (means cat)" as a shout-out to MH3U, or just Neko.
I wound up going with Morty, because death theme, and also maybe some Rick & Morty influence in the sense that I regard the Palico as a kind of ambivalently-helpful, but generally unreliable/inferior member of the party who's basically just along for the ride because of some superficial relation/common goals/general adventuring shenanigans.
Other than that, I just kinda pick random themes. I haven't made my 7 sins team yet because I'm not sure I've found Palicos that deserve the names...
Beyond that, I'll probably do some anime/video game shout-out names when naming additional pals.

| I actually really enjoy your Rick and Morty reference there. | |

| My ace is named Cicily and the other palico I use most often is Gunther. I don't have any good reason why though, I just like the name | |
