How Did You Make Your Penguin Name?

Hola ACP! Today, I’m here with a fun post. We are in need of a fun post. This isn’t a post that’ll make you hoot with laughter, it’s more of a post of interest, but it’s still classified as a fun post. Anyone can participate, even if it may seem “childish” to you. Age discrimination is not something we appreciate in the ACP, so we’d like everyone to comment. Well, it is interesting so discover how everyone chose their penguin’s name!

How did you choose yours, Splashy? Well…. I didn’t. My sister originally made Splashy56 in July 2011. She’d just found out about Club Penguin, and wanted to give it a try. The name ‘Splashy’ was unavailable, so my sister put together Splashy and a couple of random numbers. Thus, Splashy56 was born. Then, my sister got extremely bored of Club Penguin and ventured off, into the world of Moshi Monsters. I took advantage of her member account, and here we are now. I’ve grown fond of this name. It’s a unisex name, I believe. Just like Foldez, Purple Slime, Snaily5, Superoo13 and Flipper7706. Yes, all of those names are unisex. Both male and females can use them. And that, people, was a red herring [where you go off track from the main subject for a bit]. You have learned something new :D.

So, how did you choose your penguin name? Was it a random pick? Is it your real name? Is it your favourite animal, toy or person? Leave a comment below! We’d love to hear your stories.

Credit goes to Snaily for the post idea, but the original concept was created by Yoangelyo of the Nachos

  1. First, booyah! :mrgreen:

  2. Nice post! mah penguin name came from my brother, he started playing on CP when I was about 5-6 years old. He named the penguin Pet penguin5 because..well, Idk. A few years later, he got bored of CP. He gave it to me. nuff said. 😀

  3. BTW, put Matt205 on the ranks again! I’m sorry, he missed the active count because he had homework. Please add him!

  4. Idk where I got my name from. It was the first thing I could think of. As for the 777… I got the first 7 from Eric Cantona (one of my fave footballers), the second because I started CP when I was 7 and for the last one…. well idk

  5. My CP name comes from Borussia Dortmund player “Robert Lewandowski”.P.S.Robert played in my favorite team Lech Poznań before he played in Borussia and my penguin was made before he came to Borussia.Go Lewandowski!

  6. My sister made my Penguin back in late July of 2007. She made this one for me since she already had her own one (Vababoom). I suppose she just thought ‘rocking man’ was a cool name so she changed it around a bit to become ‘Rawkinman’. Aerwghy’s first penguin (Funkyguy100) was made 20 minutes later, since he was at my house at the time.

  7. Err Holly8857 was my sisters Holly was her fav girl name and i got to pick the numbers 8 cause my sister was 8 in 2010 then i liked 88 so i added another 8 and i just picked 57 it just a unforgetable number. After the first day my sister just gave it to me 😀

  8. i also got one called super edwin van der sar relating to my xat name super edwin van der sar

  9. My CP name came from my older bro trying to blend in the word “Yeast” and “Easy”. Not only that, it was a very short and catchy name which was difficult to get in 2009, since most catchy, simple names had already been taken.

  10. My name came around when i ate some strangers BROWNIES, 😀

  11. Funbob16 came around when i was eating the BROWNIES some stranger gave me. (Wary)

  12. I originally made my first CP account in 2006. I can’t quite remember it, sadly, because it is probably very rare, but I named it “Blastoice” something because I loved pokemon. This new one I made back in 2009. I thought funny names were less nooby and I didn’t want any numbers in it. I thought buritodaily was funny, to bad I was young and spelled Burrito wrong.

  13. some people say my name isnt apropriate but heres how i made putsy3 .one day i tried to sign up 4 cp and used cool names like fireball when they didnt work i added numbers.i didnt get to sign up that day cuz names where taken.another day the same thing happened so i just made the most random name.

  14. My name is so obvious. The 7667 is unknown

  15. I wanted to be a Agent when I was young. But Agent was unavailable so I put some random numbers. I think Agent is a name a boy or girl can use because they boys and girls can be Agents.

  16. I had to think of one so I choose Penguin52374 ok?

  17. I got my name in 2008 since I loved Obama our USA president so much so I got Obama and the 81000 from my bff’s number of his penguin.

  18. I was originally a penguin named magicsoup I spent 4 years as magicsoup till I got banned as magicsoup so my auntie made my account and I was choosing my name over the phone and I thought of the game system of nintendo and my favourite numbers 234 so I told her she activated my nintendo342 account amd that was how Nintendo342’s name was born

  19. Splashy! I can’t take credit for this one. This was my sister Yoangelyo’s idea and I stole it from her because it was SO great. So for all of those who criticize her for stealing ideas from me…I stole one from her! HA HA! It makes for a great, fun post. Thanks sis!

  20. icey cold27
    icey is the informal (wrong) way to spell icy
    cold is like shiver
    27 is a cool number

  21. I was going to be Swimmerboy with no numbers, but Swimmerboy was taken, and Swimmerboy1 was too! Thus, Swimmerboy01 was created. Swimmer is for me being a competitive Swimmer a few years ago for 7 years, boy was made because Im a guy, and 01 for Number One!

  22. I chose my penguin name on a cool January morning, I was put off on joining CP in December because of the holidays which was a shame because I would have enjoyed the 09 Holiday party. Anyways the first thing that came to my head was how penguins enjoy sliding down hills of ice on their stomachs. Slide or Slidey sounded stupid, and I decided on Slider. Well Slider was already taken along with many other numbers (I couldn’t believe how many Sliders there were) I decided on Slider568 because my favorite NASCAR driver had those numbers on his car.

    Quite a long story for how I chose my penguin name amiright? 😆

  23. my brothers penguin who joined before me was called Flopper12321, copied him with the name “Flipper” the 77 came from my lucky number at the time 7, and put it twice, and the 06 came from the year it was made.

    Flipper7706.

  24. Well, Superoo13 was originally the name I chose when I entered a Yahoo! Chess Tournament and won! I got the name when i was back in Australia when I was younger. I formed it with Super+Kangaroo+13. I kept the Super part, shortened it to Roo and added in 13, because of my favourite footballer Michael Ballack. 😉

  25. I was going to be “mariostar” in 2007, but typo’d my name on making it.

    Don’t laugh at me. Please.

  26. i wanted to make my penguin name waffle because my favorite cat fo ours was waffle he was a brown cat a old cat we got he is dead now but he lives though my penguin 🙂 jk (Wary) but waffle was taken so i did mr waffle mr waffle was taken than i did mr waffle 1 through 10 and it was all taken and i hit 2 random keys and it came out to be mr waffle 45 and there forth i was mr waffle 45

  27. Twingy was just a random name, but a darn cool one at that

  28. My penguin name comes from the nickname my mom gave me, Snaily Gaily since snail rhymes with Gail. She could have used whaley gaily but what girls wants to be called a whale?! LOL. My sister Yoangelyo created my penguin to cheer me up because I just had surgery and was very depressed. She thought I could play and have fun in CP during recovery, plus I think she wanted me off of her penguin (wary).

  29. mine came from when i was folding up one of these fold-up toy things from a happy meal box which was supposed to be super easy to do.

    It seemed a weird choice to begin with but nobody else had thought of the name before, so it became my own unique name. i have yet to meet anyone else named foldez or anything along those lines and i kinda dont really want to.

  30. I created my account when I was 6, and I had a Australian sheep-dog named “Bingo”, and once I watched the weather forecast, and saw that they used a radar. So when I was trying to think of a name, I just put one and one together, and, well-ah. History was made.

  31. I made my penguin’s name by combining “Interweb” because it’s the lulzy term for the internet, and “dude” because I’m a guy, and live in Cali. Thus, Interwebdude was born! 🙂

  32. I just used my initials and added the three because I am the third Mcw. And then voila, history was made with Mcw3! 😀

  33. Come on antant, im curious about your penguin name! Plz comment.

  34. Same for me, except my cousin made it in 07 and my old account got banned in 09

  35. i had an old account called max and i was in the ice warriors and there was a soldier who was the best I’ve ever seen, until i joined ACP, but he was my club penguin hero back then, and his name was Fred Master2 so i named mine Fred Master3
