Pick His Name!
Added 2024-12-06 23:17:37 +0000 UTCHey guys! I'm planning on adding a new character to the Mokaverse relatively soon, but I'm struggling to find a name I like. So I've brought it down to you guys to pick one!
The subject of today's poll is this bunny:

I'm trying to keep further names based on beverages or desserts, to stay in line with Moka's name being a reference to coffee. With that in mind, the options below are all inspired by desserts of either Japanese or Chinese origin, that match the character either in color or theme.
NAME OPTIONS:
Yun Tang
(Chinese, based on "Tangyuen")
(Alternatively, I've added Tang Yun as a separate option)Neri Kirisame
(Japanese, based on "Nerikiri" - Additional image: "Usagi Nerikiri")Chen Mushu
(Chinese, based on Boba tea - "mΓΉshΗ" meaning Cassava, the plant Tapioca is derived from - Additionally, "Chen" is a common surname as well as sounding similar to "Cha", which means Tea)
(I know this one has a few steps but as a non-chinese person, finding words that also work as names AND are easy enough to pronounce is hard!)
Given these options, let me know which you prefer! The winner is most likely to become the character's official name - though I'm open to new ideas in the comments, or explanations of why you think your choice works well!
NOTE: Depending on which dessert/name is chosen, I may elect to slightly alter his design to further match the inspiration.

(Fun fact! - Soyeun's name was originally not chosen as a dessert reference, but I've retroactively named him Bing Soyeun, which is a reference to a shaved ice dessert called "Bingsu" ;] )
