I think the best names, however, are where the castaways create a name based on some feature of the campsite rather than take some native word they've heard before. Rattana, Soliantu and Dabu were my favourites.

Yeah, Nobag is the single worst name ever. I'd have preferred Bonga (anagram of Gabon). Sounds funny and exotic. I believe the president of Gabon is also
named Bonga.

^Hypocrite. Dabu isn't a feature of the campsite - it's made-up and therefore gaytarded.

Random knowledge:
I've seen some people saying that jaburu is one of the best names of tribes ever, did know that here in Brazil we use jaburu in reference to ugly woman? Yes, not only the weird bird receive this name here... Fave names: Ogakor Kucha Tambaqui Samburu Worst names: La Mina Mogo Mogo Saboga Chapera |

My favorites are:
Kucha Ogakor Rotu Soliantu Lopevi Fei Long Zhan Hu Hae Da Fung (yes, I like the China names. So sue me). Least favorite: All of the names that involved combining the previous tribe names All of the ASS names All of the Cook island names Fang Nobag Nobag Nobag NOBAG. Seriously, Nobag is SUCH A MORONIC NAME. And then, just to capitalize on the stupidity, they wrote the "B" backwards. I forgot to mention that I hate the EI names.

With the exception of the merged name, the ASS names were pretty good, too. Chapera, Saboga, and Mogo Mogo were all good names, with Saboga as my favorite.

They should have change Saboga to Sabogu just for end-vowel variety. It's annoying how two of the names ended in a.

All Amazon and Vanuatu ones were GREAT.
For me, Bayoneta was hands down the worst. It was only 1 letter away from being English. |

Honestly, it's hard for me to remember any tribe names LOL I remember during the season and once the season is over, it's completely wiped from my
mind.

Dictatorship wrote: The Chinese names Fei Long and Zhan Hu are not combining two random words (but Hae Da Fung is very terrible and is not a Chinese phrase) It is very common to use two words to name anything in Chinese because each Chinese word has only one syllable. It is great that they did not name the two original tribes as yin and yang. BTW, the Chinese translation of outwit outpolay outlast is very bad. |
