I was going through the shippers list with Blackjack last night, and we came across a bunch of them that we wondered how the hell they came to get that name.

What shipping names make you wonder why they're called that? If you have any theories about a shipping name posted, or happened to name it yourself, let us know!

Here's one I've always been puzzled about: Why is Giovanni/Tracey called WickedShipping?
 
He does have at least one air vehicle, though.
 
I wonder about HeatTagshipping (Kouhei x Hikari/Dawn). I get the Tag part--cause they were partners in the tag battle. But where's the Heat part coming in? o.o

I'm sure there are more that stump me, but this one came to mind first.
 
The only thing I can connect Ikarishipping with is Shinji Ikari from Evangelion, given that Paul is Shinji in Japanese. But I'm not sure why that ship in particular is called that.

Because when I thought about it (and how I liked it at the time) 'wicked' was the only way to possibly describe a relationship between them. ....I'm a Tracey abuser. Love the boy. Can't seem to put him in a stable relationship...well, save Gary.

I don't get "Comashipping" or "Ikarishiping".

Blame the Neon Genesis Evangelion fanboys/girls. Has to do with that. Paul's Japanese name is Shinji. The main character in Eva is Shinji Ikari. Ikari be Hikari with that lovely 'h' hacked right off. Circumcision, all that. Coma....has something to do with...well, Asuka goes into a coma. I don't know how that connects to Satoshi though (don't think he's been knocked out yet), but I suppose Paul could put him in one? Borrow and apply.

Perhaps it had something to do with DP06 when Satoshi's being deceived by those Stantler by having those illusions or something? ^^;
 
Oh I like this thread. ^^

So, can anyone tell me why Archie x Maxie is Hardenshipping? I've been wondering about that since I knew of it's existence. ^^;

There's also the fact that there's a Hikari in Evangelion, though she's not nearly as important to the story, and she certainly isn't paired with Shinji. But I guess there's enough of a connection there, huh? Shinji-Ikari-Hikari. Seems pretty clever to me~

Oops, that's one of mine. I named it HardenShipping because when Magma hits water (Aqua), it cools and hardens.
 
How about Alfshipping? That name always made me go "hurr?"
 
Why did people come up with Lagmorphshipping?

Stupid name for Pokemon's best pairing.
