I'm planning on naming my Warboss but I'm faced with a few problems.

Give him a name or a surname i.e. Ghaz Thraka or Boss Snikrot

I was thinking of something but I don't think there is a word four Soul in Ork language.

I was thinking something like Dread Klaw Soul Krumpa or Boss Spine'Krumpa/Kracka

Would appreciate an Ork player or someone who's a bit more into the lore to comment and assist me.

I just looked up some Glyphs.

So what I should be aiming for is: Gof Klaw Soul Dreg or Boss Dreg'spine or something.

Boss Spine Krumpa sounds lovely, dear.

I also like Boss Skull Krumpa, Boss Marrow Guzzler, Boss Toe Nail Puller, and Boss Groin Stompa.

Thanks!

Warboss Krotchkicka is the only name a Warboss in my army could ever have.

Personally, i'd advise keeping it one word. Eg. Soulkrumpa, as it's a bit more Orky and require's thinking about and is therefore recognised and liked.

Name what you want him in your fluff....

But when you are showing an army list, make SURE that his name is just a "Warboss XXXX" in relation to what he actually is. There's nothing worse than a counts as Ghazghkull, or counts-as big mek not labeled that way and judges / opponents / list critiquers here on Dakka are trying to figure out what the unit is.

Warboss "Boss Soul Krumpa" 60pt
-Powerklaw 25pt
-etc XXpt

is just fine. Big Mek "MekGubbins" is fine. Having 15 Lootas and having their entry named "MekGubbins' Shooters" without "Lootas" identified in there is also a big fat no-go.

Just be careful on where the names go.

Boss SpineKrumpa

Like that?

@ Dash

Yeah it's for my Green Tide army boss

I can see Boss Spine Krumpa or Boss Spinekrumpa I think the word for cut, rip, remove, etc. is Dreg so maybe

Boss Spine'Dreg / Spinedreg or Soul Dreg O:

IMHO, yes, most certainly.

Oh, and Dash is spot on there also.

I understand the list thing...

Spine Krumpa's blah blah

HQ:
Thraka

People: "Wait...what?"

I'll be sure to fix that.

Just something I thought of, what about Ol' Ironeye? Would be good for a Warboss with a bionic eye.

Except that, that's one of the Ork's nick names for Yarrick.

Ol' One eye and One-Eye Yarrick.

Grok da Spine-stompa!

Boss Spinedreg or Boss Spine Dreg

Maybe boss spinebusta or warboss bonekraka theres millions of orkish names. whatever you decide, make it as fluffy as possible.

Boss Nutbusta.

Boss Spinerippa wait I just thought of one.

Boss Ghruz 'eart rippa

Boss Zhud 'eadstompa

Boss Dun 'Goofed
