Make Gobo, Giga, Pico, Nano have more memorizable names
When you first find out which one is which, it'll be easy to differentiate them. But overtime it's gonna get harder and harder to remember. No support.

Make Gobo, Giga, Pico, Nano have more memorizable names
These are mascots of the site so they should have proper names for the important role they play for Scratch - Fantasy 3 is not a great name for a mascot, even if it is only called that in some places, like the sprite library - they always deserve to have proper names. Also, it is not like their names are completely random - the names for Gobo's Friends are derived from metric prefixes for powers of 10.
All suggestions are unnecessary. If a suggestion is necessary then it's a bug report.

No support, as their names represent metric prefixes for powers of 10.

I will not support this a single bit because if your naming them monster one, monster two, monster three and monster four then that’s gonna get confusing because you might get confused on which numbers they are!

Okay seriously though, I am not supporting this in any way. This would get the scratch community very confused and it would be more fun to refer to them as powers of 10 than just “Monster 1, Monster 2…” etcetera.

Make Gobo, Giga, Pico, Nano have more memorizable names
Alot of people are repeating points but I also might want to mention that it's not good to call the mascots “monsters”. Not that it would be scary, it just wouldn't sound right for Scratch. Calling them “aliens” might be better, or maybe just “mascots”.
Additionally, giving them individuality would be nice of course. Others have already mentioned many times about how it's harder to memorize, but honestly I think calling the mascots Monster-1, Monster-2, etc. just sounds kind of cheap, and it would be cheaper if you actually did end up calling them Mascot-1, Mascot-2 like I mentioned would be best if this were implemented…

No support. Everybody is used to nano, tera, etc, and the community would get confused, and I agree with Sliverus, the names would be quite cheap.

And plus, how is just 4 letters hard to memorize? They could also just write the names down. Does that calm you?

I’d like to bump this post of mine. It seems to have gotten overlooked.
Honestly, if this was implemented (renaming them, not removing them) I would still call them by their metric prefix names. I don’t think this would really change anything, but confuse new scratchers about why people are saying metric prefixes and who “Tera” and “Pico” are.

Hello Scratch Team. You have been pushing a liberal political agenda on this site for far too long. This site should stay out of politics. People should be able to still post their political opinions, but there shouldn’t be any “official” political stance or Scratch. The ST is not going to change this on their own, and shoot down any attempts asking them to change. Please put this in your signature if you agree that
Scratch should be politically neutral.
The ST’s biggest defense is that they’re being welcoming, but they can be perfectly welcoming of all people and stay out of politics. Scratch is about coding, and that should be the Scratch Team’s biggest concern to maintain.
This is my signature. I am allowed to adertize here.

at the end of the day, pico is cute, look at the poor svg drawing. he's just too cute to call him a monster Alot of people are repeating points but I also might want to mention that it's not good to call the mascots “monsters”. Not that it would be scary, it just wouldn't sound right for Scratch. Calling them “aliens” might be better, or maybe just “mascots”.

Monster four = 12 characters.
Pico = 4 characters.
So “Pico” is easier to remember than “Monster four”

that makes the site look less appealing to junior-aged children and more boring overall So remove them from this:
-snip-
That is some images to remove images remove or edit.
take one of my projects
its mascot and logo are this:
while, yes, that is the icon that is shown on the bot user template on the wiki, it has a character to it
even this somewhat professional project will show this image on its 404 page:
even the most professional of projects and projects use characters, windows xp used rover, they make a project less boring. pure text is never good
icons are what makes software good, easy to use, and removal of these icons or unification of the images to one (ie only featuring scratch cat) within the site makes the entire ux boring
