- But it would be nice if others made even more! :-) GreenReaper
- Sgeo asked on JRChat (12/28, after requesting the wiki) what the title should be. The title, however, was never set according to that. The title was already Creatures Wiki when Sgeo went online 12/30. Suggested titles:
- WikiCreatures (Sgeo)
- Wiki Creatures (Sgeo)
- Wikicreatures (Sgeo)
- Wikitures (JacketFan)
- CWiki (JacketFan) (pronounced "quicky") Rejected due to possible confusion with http://www.creatureworld.net
- Crea-Wi (JacketFan)
- Kiwi (flip8) A lot of people seemed to be in favor of this one...
- KriWi (LilWashu)
- The Creatures Wiki, So-Named Because None of the Other Names Worked (JacketFan)
- Borrovan (LilWashu)
- Fart Nugget (JacketFan)
- Creatures computer game series (Meer)
- Creatures Series (Meer)
- W-CAS (LilWashu) Stood for Wiki Creatures A-life Series
- Wikreatures (LilWashu)
- Boring Named Creatures Wiki Because Sgeo Wouldn't Accept Any Clever Names (JacketFan) (note: Sgeo didn't seem to like any of the suggested names, causing this one...)
