Well, here we are. Mid November 2015 Cthulhu Mythos Naming Contest has come to an end.
I'm glad much more participants have submitted their own proposal to "christen" the unnamed Great Old One described by William Browning Spencer in the short novel of his "Usurped", an insectoid abomination whose real names has "-toth" suffix as in many other Cthulhu Mythos dark fellows (i.e. Azathoth).
CTHULHU MYTHOS CONTEST RESULTS - Ranks
- 1st Rank
with her own Yagggan-Kyototh which sounds close enough to this Mythos entity's alien name. Maelstrom51210 is allowed to ask me a request.
- 2nd Rank
with his multiple submissions which fit well for other Cthulhu Mythos entities or places. masterofhorr is allowed to ask me a request.
- 3rd Rank
for his Temmuthoth which is a bit too much reminiscent of Human culture but cannot be discarded. Rodlox too is allowed to ask me a request.
Contest winner may send me a note with their own requests and I'll (be trying to) fulfil them.
That's all. Thank you anyone's been interested to browse Cthlhu Mythos Naming Contest journal entries and stay wired for upcoming new contests.

Sorry, fellow Deviants, but I really have to tell you this weird piece of news.
I have to confess that I've been (and I am currently) a Wikipedia contributor, mostly scribbling in scientific pages and Cthulhu Mythos sections too, of course (naturally, I'd say) ;p
I use to scroll down the Table of Great Old Ones where sometimes I find additions from Wikipedia users and I myself often add new entries as I find verified ones in terms of Bibliography and Reliability. Since 2010, I think, I've been adding to the li
Cthulhu Naming Contest December 2015 RESULTS
Here we are, Cthulhu Mythos December/Yuletide Naming Contest is closed. Latest contest had received way more submissions, whereas current one has received only one entry (?). Maybe December and Christmas holidays are not the most inspiring periods for messing with dark knowledge, yet Lovecraft has written one of his best known pieces dedicating it to Yuletide, Germanic/Norse homologue of christian Xmas...
Moreover many of you have missed the rare privilege chance to ask me not one but two requests... just kidding...
Therefore the one and only contest participant... TAKES ALL THE PRIZES!! Hahaha!! :D :rofl:

Cthulhu Double Naming Contest December 2015
Approximating Christmas – or should I say Yuletide Festival to use a Lovecraftian headword – I’m feeling as generous as Santa Claws (… Santa’s homologue in R’lyeh *lol*… ) and I want this journal entry to launch a twofold Cthulhu Mythos naming contest, in order to blend an “old glory” of Cthulhu Mythos and a “brand-new” entry from recent Lovecraft-related fiction.
This time I’m asking you to help me finding a name for two unnamed Cthulhu Mythos entities and accordingly prize shall be twofold too: winner(s) can ask me not one but two requests. Double the dark lore, doubl

Some plain rules
1) Deviant watchers or visitors can suggest one name for the Mythos entity to “christen”.
2) One name per deviant can be proposed.
3) Find a strange, eldritch or even an worldly source and have fun searching one then give the name the eeriest sound. If source sounds too obvious a second proposal/attempt may be considered.
4) Unleash the dark fantasy of yours!

Winner can ask me a free request,

as for mine, I just figured "humans try to say and write things to the best of their abilities, which may not be entirely accurate"...I need to re-find that joke about "sorry, was that rrraugh or yag?"
