Hi everyone,

I would like to know the worst card name you've heard of; something that could definitely use a better name. My vote goes for Jump.

Island of Wak-Wak holds a special place in my heart.

When compared to Our Market Research Shows That Players Like Really Long Card Names So We Made this Card to Have the Absolute Longest Card Name Ever Elemental, no name is good anymore. Apparently the name is so good, it isn't in tappedout's database.

...Is that Prince in Island of Wak-Wak's art?

I also love that card's flavor text. The whole card is ridiculous. It's worth the $65.

I have to say that Clone is pretty unimaginative.

"Hey, what's this thing?"

Well, it's a cat.

"We can't just have a card named cat, Sandra!"

Ugh, well it's black...

"Perfect!"

Olivia, Mobilized for War? That title is awkward at the very least.

Octrate

I agree. Mobilized itself is a weird word, but then you've got the v from Olivia and the w in was to just make for a super awkward name

DERPLINGSUPREME I think that the five basic lands' names are fine. At least they're not "Red Mana", "Black Mana" etc. It's just that we've had them since the beginning of Magic, and they've become common names.

Octrate Yeah, I agree. When I saw the Olivia spoiler I legitimately facepalmed. But at least it's not "Olivia, the vampire who wants to fly-fight now."

@123katty well yeah. the names are completely fine. all the names in the thread are.

but they are, no matter what anyone says, by far the most obvious card names in mtg.
