With 111 Pals to collect in Palworld, it’s tough to give each one a perfect custom name. But, there are a few name options that are an ideal fit.

Everyone wants to stand out, and with so many different Pals in Palworld, there’s plenty of room to get creative. So that’s what we did. Be warned, though—some of these names aren’t safe for work as they’ll make you laugh far too much.

Pal names in Palworld that play with words

Each Pal already has a name, and most involve wordplay or references to real things. For example, as a duck-like Pal, Fuack immediately makes you think of the sounds ducks make: quack.

It’s absolutely fine to play around with their original names and come up with a tweaked version that may fit them better. Here’s what we came up with in this category.

  • Incognito for Cawgnito
  • Chipi chipi or chapa chapa for Chikipi and fans of the best social media trend in the last few months
  • Quack for Fuack. I mean, we had to.
  • Wombat for Tombat, because why not. Or, if he has aggressive passives, just go for Combat.
  • Suzuki for Suzaku. Even the brand’s name is red, like the Pal.
  • Nightwing for Nitewing. It just asks to be there.
  • Mozarella for Mozzarina. The Pal’s skill is Milk Maker, so it couldn’t have been more obvious.

Sometimes when you’re playing Palworld, it’s almost impossible to look at a Pal and not think about another character or thing in pop culture. Even though I don’t know a whole lot about pop culture, these names stood out as the best to me. Here are some of my favorites.

  • Oswald or Cobblepot for Penking. There’s no better fit here, like there’s no better Penguin in comics than Mr. Cobblepot. Sorry, Penking.
  • Mr Boombastic for Tocotoco. You know, because they’re both explosive, right?
  • Robin Hood for Rooby. It just works.
  • Netflix Chill for Chillet.
  • Manny for Mammorest. If you’re an Ice Age fan, you know.
  • Wumpa Lumpa for Wumpo. Similarly, those who saw Willy Wonka should know what’s going on.
  • Lighting McQueen for Necromus. Just because it has speed.

Last but not least, we created a section specifically for fans of other games. And although it’s not the biggest one, it’ll get there, just give me a few more days to play.

  • Leeroy Jenkins for Rushoar. Because it leads the charge.
  • Ragnarok for Ragnahawk. Kratos would be proud.
  • Skarner for Menasting. My best friend mains him in League, and what’s a better name for a scorpion-like Pal?
  • Flappy Bird for Flopie. Do you remember how annoying this game was?
