Question...
I'm working on a MarleyxBrendan fanfic, but I don't know what to call the shipping...

Old geezer moment:
Back in the early days of the fandom, we used acronyms. You know, like BAML. Granted, that also implies you're talking about gymshipping, but sometimes, confusion's good for a laugh. Not to mention if you use a shipping name that isn't actually well known, you'll get confusion either way. *shrug* You're better off just using the character names. If you really want to name the 'ship, though, the best thing to do is find something they both have in common. For example, Rocketshipping gets its name from the fact that Jessie and James are members of Team Rocket. Advanceshipping (Ash x May) comes from the fact that they're both part of the Advanced season(s). For Marley and Brendan, I admit I don't know their characters that well, but you've got Marley, who lurks around Victory Road, and Brendan, who becomes the champion in the games. You could try Victoryshipping (VictoryRoadshipping having already been taken). Or come up with another set of traits they share and check on the List of Shippers. But seriously, if the pairing's obscure, I'd highly recommend just mentioning the character names in the warning. Your readers won't know who you're talking about if you just come up with a shipping name and try to use it. |
Ship doesn't exist yet, at least not according to the recently updated list of Pokemon ships.
This means you can either have the fun of naming the ship yourself, or you can just call it "Marley x Brendan" and leave it at that. There's a Shipping Debates thread in Pokemon TV Show and Movies that you can talk about this more in, and see if they can help you with a name. Oh godsdamn, Jax. D< You beat me. |
