Anyways, here's Flint post-Overworld with some of his kiddos because he deserves the happiness :) Idk if he'd have any biological kids tbh, but it doesn't really matter because he loves them all the same! A couple of things about him are nebulous to me, family being one of them.
Left piglet would be closer to warped forest coloration for youngins, and the right more for the wastes. It varies pretty wildly by bastion and colony, as a lot of piglins tend to mingle between bastions in their horde, but generally piglets are striped and colored like that of their home terrain. The baby colors typically wear off when they get a bit older, somewhere around 6-8 years old, when they're growing in their adult teeth and tusks. I feel like baby piglins would be 'piglets' and then turn to 'piglings' before they mature into full-grown piglins (like our difference between newborn & child).

I have brainrot about piglins, but itās mostly one in specific. This is himā Flintbairn of Bastion Glowstone 23b⦠my homeboy, my sweet cheese, my good time boy. You know. Anyways, he started as an NPC for an in-game scavenger hunt I made with a bunch of redstone on a server a while back, and he evolved from there.
Flint got trapped in the overworld one day when his portal exploded behind him, leaving him with a heck of a scar and a pretty nasty case of advanced zombification. Luckily, heās been able to stave it off for the most part with his knowledge of potions, but his supplies can only last so long. Heās hoping to find either a solid cure or to find a way back home before he completely loses himselfā only a matter of time.
Heās kind of in a liminal space for me, always in the overworld and not quite zombified because I never got to finish his questline before the server shut down, alas. Heās pretty sweet and is a caretaker for the young piglets back home, but he helps around where needed.
Anyways. This guy I rotate in my head all the time. Constantly. Look at him. Ask me about him, but be warned, I will not shut up about him
Today I think I shall gush about my piglin naming system! Inspired by Technoblade :)
Piglin names typically come in three parts, being (attribute)(thing youāre known for)(bastion name). Bastion names are normally used if youāre interacting with anyone outside of your bastion or horde, because goodness knows how many piglins out there are named Goldā¦
First names are usually a personality trait or something alluding to one, not always literal. Techno was named as such because heās cool and calculating on the outside, like technology. Flint (my oc, for a second example) was named as such because heās hardy and dependable.
Second names are given later on in life (some piglins choose not to use them, or never earn them)ā these can be a lot of things! Usually itās a profession, but it can also be a notable event in your life; itās something people would recognize you for. Techno got the name ābladeā because of his prowess with blades in farming and on the battlefield, and Flint got ābairnā for being good with those who are born (animals, but children especially).
Some piglins never end up getting second names, and some donāt associate with a bastion. Those who are outcast or choose to move elsewhere may take up a different name. They also morph with timeā if someone becomes more well-known for something after theyād already received a second name, theyād change it to match!
This is the short version, amazingly enough. More under the cut if youāre interested in it! Youāll get a glimpse into how my mind works, lol
First names arenāt given until piglings start to grow their tusks in, around which time their personality shows a lot more. As a baby, theyāre given a placeholder name by their parents or caretakers, which can be anything! Typically, itās from a pool of names that that bastion or horde holds dear, so litters a couple years apart may end up having the same childhood names.
I actually have a list of some names thatād work in one way or another, though not all of them may fit together smoothly. You can likely shift stuff around and add or subtract letters so it rolls off your tongue easier. I mean, technically this is in english, so itād likely work in the piglinās spoken language, but hey!
Birth names: Typically some physically defining trait, notable action, or person/idol/role model, given to the piglet shortly after birth. Examples include steve/alex/jean, mud, snow, speckle, leather, squeal, swift, trot, crinkle, crimson, trip/skip, hopper
First names: Typically an object or item, or field of study or important advancement in relation to the piglinās temperament around 8-12 years of age. Overworld examples are used less frequently, but tend to be given to piglets with exceptional or odd temperaments. Examples include Techno(logy), Flint, Fence, Ash, Ember, Clay, Obsidian (Obi-), Cinder, Gold, Flame, Blaze, Rose, Water, Rust, Cobblestone (Cobble-), Honey
Second names: Typically a thing or descriptor/verb (usually in past tense), given to the piglin after finding something they excel at or become known for. This is usually a word that pertains to multiple aspects of them (as with Techno, ābladeā refers to his expertise with bladed items both in battle and cultivation). Examples include Blade, Bairn (born), Char, Forge, Lock, Arrow, Shield, Bloom, Ferrous/Aurous, Brew, Heal, Tame, Craft, Knife, Smith, Saw, Sword, String, Saddle, Spirit, Breath, Grown, Wrought, Torn, Write, Built, Read, Smelt, Bud, Scar
Literally just copy pasted from my notes app so apologies if stuff is repeated or doesnāt make sense! If you guys have piglin name ideas or oc ideas regarding this I will give you a kiss on the forehead, I adore it.
The more I talk about it the more it sounds like how warrior cats name themselves. I know nothing about warrior cats, unfortunately, so I canāt say it holds true, but⦠I feel like this may be a common thing I worldbuilding. Regardless, I just think itās neat!
If you are insane about piglins as I am or still relatively sane with a little interest in them, do interact! Iād love to bounce ideas off each other ^^! Also if you got this far I love you and tuck you in all cozy like a snug bug!! Donāt forget to eat and drink today, you deserve it! Okay thatās all for right now! :D
