Screwball Mascot Naming Contest

[Vitolo]

"Vito"

 

[whateverman]

The second I saw the mascot I knew - This is Bud!

Why Bud?
1. Bud is Short and Easy to remember!
2. Cambridge University defines Bud as "a small part of a plant, that develops into a flower or leaf". That can mean that Bud will help you develop!
3. Approachable - "Bud" has a friendly and approachable vibe, which can make it more relatable to a wide range of people.
4. "Bud" is a classic and endearing name. While not directly related to medicinal cannabis, the name "Bud" still carries positive connotations associated with nature.

Good luck with the mascot! I hope Bud will make a lot of people happy!

What about "Frosty"... one of the things I have loved the most about the screwball in the ability to use really low temperatures in comparison to most of the devices I have. It made the screwball the choice of device for me when recovering from surgery purely because I had ZERO risk of combustion and the vapour is tasty and cool and that comes from the gem cut rubies...

So what about "Rudy Frost", "Rudy Chill", "Frosty", "Rimy", "Crispy", "Crystal Frost", "Vapor Gleam", "Vapoura", "Rudy Breeze"

You know what they say..... Great minds think alike.

but weirdly, your suggestion was literally the one before mine, made, on Tuesday. So 4 days, 17 hours, and 20 minutes later, I subconsciously recall this, prefer it, and am moved to post this. Are you familiar with the work of Koestler, and the Roots of Coincidence?

There are a few duplicates here but I'm sure the contest judges will be able to see who posted those names first, not to worry.

Exactly, if run properly, they will view any dupes and sort by date/time posted in thread. Thus for these types of naming contests, it makes sense to post early….

Hunter S. Gemson or Hunter R. Gemson, with the 'R' referring to 'ruby'

Screw Ellis for the second baseball character.

 

[martinstraka8282]

The Moussaieff or Moussaieff Red

This is the largest known red diamond in the world

And just because I was a huge Frank Thomas fan growing up and baseball is the theme... The Big Hurt. Maybe this could be expanded on and you could do a classic ball players nickname for each product. Not sure if there's any copyright issues there. Mr. Freeze. Slammin' Sammy. The Home Run King. Ryno. Rocket. Etc.

Benny for the diamond and Smalls for the baseball
