The characters or little monsters in online games are usually given by the game copywriters. As for the name, for a relatively large game, the name must have been decided in advance in a certain version of the planning plan, and it is related to the game background and plot.

But if it is some web games that are frequently updated with new characters, the name of the game is often the planner staring at the ceiling at the picture that the artist has drawn. This is usually the most troublesome time for the planner, because They had to look through books and the Internet to find information, and even looked at games of the same type to see if there was any inspiration.

The naming rules are generally determined by color, appearance characteristics, painting style, etc., but in the end, whether it is passed or not depends on the opinion of the chief planner.

When I was working on a children's game, the artist one day gave me a swollen blue water monster, and I named it "Water Douling". The chief engineer said that the name was too similar to the medicine for treating chicken pox, so I changed it to "Aqua Blue Pearl" before passing.

Another time I named a fire-type boss. It had a domineering image of him wearing an armor and a cape holding a fireball in his hands. I gave it the name "Flame Martial Lord" and I felt quite satisfied with it. But the chief designer said the name was too oriental and inconsistent with the game's magical setting, so it was rejected.

Sometimes game planners will give monsters some weird names, such as "Calling Beast", "Taobao", "Yanzhaomen" and the like. Sometimes it's just for fun. Sometimes it's to attract the player's attention. The funniest thing is. A studio once named a monster after one of their colleagues, and then he was killed countless times by players in the game every day...
