Talk:Color Naming Rule/@comment-18396318-20150912203930/@comment-4010415-20150913014414

The reason why he told us about the rules is written in the document: "I'm putting this out there so that you don't invest in something that isn't accurate to the rule." In relation to OCs and OC teams.

Say I wanna make an OC named Nathaniel... uhh... Origins... or something like that.

Nathaniel means "Gift of God" or "God has given." What color is a gift from God? What is the gift? Is it a baby? Is it a talent? Is it luck? Is it protection? Is it a magical power? Is it a talking mule? What? And "Origins" doesn't really give anything for a color either, as far as I can tell.

And then you have people who straightup make up a name that doesn't even exist. Like... Chekizka Veliniaro. There. I invented a name. I've seen people make OCs like that before, even in the RWBY fandom. A completely made-up name like that isn't going to follow the CNR because it doesn't have any meanings or colors attached to it.
