I came up with "Caulifla"

Post by floofychan333 » Tue May 02, 2017 6:10 pm

I know some people have thought the female SSJ's name will be revealed as Cauli, and now it's been revealed as Caulifla, so they're almost right. However, I must say that I came up with a Saiyajin character called Calyfla in my fanfiction that I was writing when I joined Kanzenshuu. Here's proof (from my very 1st post no less)
floofychan333 wrote:So, I'm writing a fanfic with many differences from the original Dragon Ball Z:

1. Goku and Chi-Chi have a daughter, Gosha, instead of a son
2. A new Saiyan named Calyfla is the one who tells Goku about his past
3. Bulma marries Yamcha instead of Vegeta, and have a different Trunks
4. Tien Shinhan and Launch are married
5. The Saiyans (Calyfla, Vegeta, Nappa, and Raditz) do not attempt to conquer Earth
6. Goku, Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Master Roshi go with the Saiyans to defeat Frieza

Anyone have any feedback?
I'm not saying that I completely predicted the name, considering the fact that it's spelled different and my Calyfla character was male, not female, but I still think it's kind of cool that something similar to one of my own creations has become a reality.

That's quite a lot more obvious that Calyfla is. In fact, there's so few Saiyajins and so many vegetables that there's a huge amount of names that could have been used instead of a cauliflower pun.

To be fair, Cauli Flowa is a lot like Broccoli. And that is the point of the character, to cash in on Broli's image. Anyway what happened to your fan fiction? Did you stop writing it. Also, shouldn't this be more suited in here?

I literally named one of my female XenoVerse Saiyans "Cauli".

One of the more well known vegetables was bound to get a corresponding Saiyan name sooner or later. I wouldn't hold that much reverence or astonishment toward such an inevitability.
