That feeling...

When you love a name and others seem to hate it.

Eh, I’m fine with it. It’s there problem if they don’t.

I've seen that name used a lot but I'm cool with it. Here are a couple if ya think ya want tah name the others besides the main larva: Double, Replica, Tresemme, Boomy, Flutterby, Noishe, Echo Call and whatever floats thy mind.

I like it. It oddly also fits the pony you're using.

Edit: or are we talking about the story?

The name Pupa for a character

One author had Princess Cocoon and another author had Princess Insectus (I think she made queen, i know she lived)

My point is that Pupa is imaginative enough to at least require a passing knowledge of insect anatomy terms. Is it great? It's not in that 'new girl' level in the school but it does measure up to the levels of Thorax and Chrysalis.

I like it.

I have a dozen other larva I have to name so I might be, but I am trying to keep all the names insect related.

Not all changelings are named after insects... just saying.

I've seen it used before, the story and characters were great and Pupa was a good side character, I hope yours lives up to my favorite story, which a changeling princess happens to have the name Pupa.

I like Pupa. It's nice. I hope you aren't discouraged by others. This is your story, after all, not theirs!

[Courage Fire]

Frankly it's an incredibly common name, but from what I'm understanding of Changeling naming conventions are all insect related. I mean Pupa sounds like a good name, like a kid's name, or more later on. Heck could do some world building and 'royals' or those destined with higher, loftier goals would be able to change their name, or it's a title, or whatever dude.

tl;dr: I like the name. Don't limit yourself to simple bug parts. Ocellus for example, is the simple eye for invertebrates.

So wait, the character is a female? Cause Pupa sounds so much like a female name.
