Re: Background Space Rangers
The light blue space ranger with the weird hairdo could be called Zira ,and she could be Cragge Stormbringer's sister. As for Janet, her last name could be Ride
Re: Background Space Rangers
Well...we could leave Zira and Cragge's relationship open for thought.
I do like the idea of Janet's last name being Ride, though.
Welcome to the forums, by the way! ^^

Re: Background Space Rangers
I was watching Ancient Evil the other day, and noticed something odd. When Natron freezes Star Command, there are several shots of different parts of the station with Rangers running around getting frozen. Now, on two entirely different parts of Star Command, you see this Ranger:
It's probably just an error by the animators, but it brings up an interesting question: are there several of her species on Star Command? Does she have a twin sister, or do all her kind just look very similar?

So, feel free to take this suggestion as seriously or not as you want, but...
This ranger:
Has now been dubbed as Lenny "Lips" McGee in my mind.
No word on what gender the ranger is, but "Lips" McGee is too good to care about gender. <3

Alexa made a suggestion in the chatbox which I really like - she says that maybe this Ranger:
...is Rocket Crocket's more laid back younger brother, Sprocket Crocket.

For Elsu Vok, the eagle Ranger, we came up with a name for his species. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you...he is an Elgaelian, pronounced, "L-guy-lee-ann".

I've been thinking about the whole "plot hole" situation with the generic Rangers (basically them appearing when and where they shouldn't), and I came up with a relatively simple explanation for the Training Deck scenario - remember Buzz saying that he still trains on Level 9? Well perhaps the Rangers fighting there with rocket emblems aren't rookies at all - they're just regular Rangers having a routine training session. No wonder Nebula was so proud of Mira - she beat all of the other Rookies and the already-recruited Rangers!
And, like you said Ranger-Nova, there's always the huge possibility that more than one member of each race is on Star Command...
...Unless each Ranger is a representative of their own race/colony? Just something I thought I'd put out there!

I really like that name, for some reason the nickname reminds me of Star Wars (I vaguely remember a few of the characters from that having cool nicknames, but I'm not as nerdy for the franchise as I used to be...). It really fits her appearance too - her real name, not just the nickname! "Lips" McGee it is!
Ranger-Nova wrote:...is Rocket Crocket's more laid back younger brother, Sprocket Crocket.
Sprocket Crocket is cool, and the brother connection is pretty good, but I'm not sure that their names should be so similar... yet, when you hear "Crocket", it sounds like a surname that would rhyme with a forename. Would Locket Crocket be any better? I just don't know...

Very cool also! Not instantly reminiscent of a bird species, but fitting for the race's appearance.

Yeah, now that I've begun looking, I've seen lots of doubles. It's just an annoying animation goof, I guess.

Oh, yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

I think there are probably several races with multiple members in Star Command, but I do like the idea of each planet in the Galactic Alliance sending out at least one member of their races as a Ranger. That would be cool.

Alexa will be glad you like the name! Although she, Fox, and I personally think of Lenny as a "he". But it's hard to tell his/her gender, so you're welcome to go with whatever you prefer.

Well, since Alexa and I have used Sprocket in private RPs together, that's what his name will always be to us, but once again you're free to go with the name you like best. Alexa, Fox, and I have a lot of headcanons about Sprocket, Lips, Blaze, and Vok, but I don't want anyone to feel forced to use our ideas. The great thing about these Rangers is that there are so many possibilities for them, because they got so little development in the show. So the field is open for anyone to develop them as they wish.

Hmm...in this one series I read, the Chanur Saga by C. J. Cherryh, there was this one species called the Stsho whose individuals could change their physical gender. Maybe Lenny's species can do that, too?

Re: Background Space Rangers
I noticed three extra background rangers in Holiday Time~! For some reason they only appear in this episode, and not in any of the others as far as I can tell.
Perhaps several Rangers not normally stationed on Star Command were called in because some of the normal staff were home for the holiday?
Anyway, here are two of them:
And here's the other (unfortunately it's hard to find a good picture of him):
What should we call them~? Alexa suggests the names Bethany Faraday for the blonde woman, Tinsel Andromeda for the other lady, and Ricardo Keylargo for the man.

Re: Background Space Rangers
Sounds good to me, all of those names. The only one I don't really agree with is Andromeda for some reason. But if it's what y'all want, I have no complaints. I mean, I personally feel Tinsel is more of a Tinsel Starling, but that's just me. (shrugs)

Re: Background Space Rangers
I like Starling better, actually! Andromeda was just an inside joke since I couldn't think of a better surname on the spot. But, yeah, I agree with Tinsel Starling being a much better name for her. <3

Re: Background Space Rangers
Okay, Tinsel Starling it is~!
I found another episode with Ricardo - NOS-4-A2.
And here's another background Ranger who is rarely seen.
What should we call him?

Re: Background Space Rangers
Well I can imagine him being a gruff and strong but gentle and warmhearted guy, what with a face and physique like those (I can also imagine Kevin Michael Richardson's voice coming from him...). Maybe something along the lines of Crunch Neutronus, or something a little less contrived?
You've got a keen eye though, Nova! I didn't realise there were so many non-recurring Rangers!

Re: Background Space Rangers
Crunch Neutronus sounds fine to me - I especially like Crunch as a first name. It fits him nicely.
Yeah, there are a surprising number of Rangers that are only in a handful of scenes. So far I've only seen Crunch three times - in Stress Test, Star Smasher, and TAB Part One.
The reason I notice these background Rangers is because I hunt through the episodes for any scenes with other Rangers and pay close attention to who they are, what they're doing, etc. Clearly I have no life. XD

Re: Background Space Rangers
Well thought out name Fox, and think it suits his species quite well. In fact, I'd like to see more of his species - maybe a Season 3 episode could revolve around it? Like you say, I could imagine his species residing in a jungle environment - perhaps he came from a tribe and stands as a hero of his race?

Re: Background Space Rangers
Heh, thanks! I'm glad you like it. *smiles* Yeah, I believe he came from a jungle environment as well, and I totally dig the hero concept. Heck, I even dig seeing more colored frogged people in season 3! *laughs* But anyway, that's a great idea, Olivus!

Re: Background Space Rangers
I was on Blosc.wikia.com last night it turned out there was a mix up with the Female Blonde Rangers name, turned out the name Tundra really belongs to a female Tangean Grounder so we may want to change her first name, I was thinking of changing it to one Nicole or Airzona to follow the trend we did with Clyde and Frank where we named them after their voice actors.
