Semi: Griffin vs. Kraken
 
Griffin:


Quote:
n the mid-1990s, "Griffin" steadily became more popular as a baby name for boys in the U.S. In 1990, it was ranked 629th. In 2006, it was ranked 254th. Also rising in popularity is the various other spellings of the name such as Griffen or Gryphon.

Kraken:


Quote:
According to Pontoppidan, Norwegian fishermen often took the risk of trying to fish over kraken, since the catch was so good. If a fisherman had an unusually good catch, they used to say to each other, "You must have fished on Kraken." Pontoppidan also claimed that the monster was sometimes mistaken for an island, and that some maps that included islands that were only sometimes visible were actually indicating kraken.

I missed the damn vote :(

I would have said Kraken, he was my suggestion in the suggestion thread. He fared pretty well.

But loosing to the Gryphon? He's just an overgrown eagle! What's wrong with you people? :lolz:

You realize there are multiple spellings, right?
Because you seem to make a point to try draw attention to that a lot.
