Sonic shipping with names

[Ivogoji]

In the Pokémon fandom, every pairing or ship has a name, like PearlShipping or AmourShipping or DrunkMartianPirateShipping (yes, really). So I got to thinking 'what if Sonic shipping used names too'? Of all series, Sonic provides the best precedent for such a system of naming, given in games like Sonic Advance 3 and Sonic Heroes, all combinations of characters have some sort of team name. Why not apply the same principle to shipping? With this in mind, I drew up this list of possible names:

Names suggested by Sonic Advance 3:
LovelyCoupleShipping (Sonic X Amy)
UnbreakableBondShipping (Sonic X Tails)
FightingBuddiesShipping (Sonic X Knuckles)
JubileeShipping (Amy X Cream)
NonagressionShipping (Sonic X Eggman)
EggHammer3Shipping (Eggman X G-Mel)

Names suggested by Sonic Heroes and other games with a team mechanic:
TeamSonicShipping (Sonic X Tails X Knuckles)
TeamRoseShipping (Amy X Cream X Big)
TeamDarkShipping (Rouge X Shadow X E-123 Omega)
TeamChaotixShipping (Vector X Espio X Charmy)
BabylonRoguesShipping (Jet X Wave X Storm)
AlternateTeamRoseShipping (Amy X Cream X Vector)
AlternateTeamDarkShipping (Rouge X Shadow X Metal Sonic)
HeroSideShipping (Sonic X Tails X Knuckles X Amy)
DarkSideShipping (Eggman X Rouge X Shadow)

Other names:
KicktheRockShipping (Knuckles X Rouge)
GirlofMyDreamsShipping (Knuckles X Tikal)
NotAGoatShipping (Knuckles X Shade)- everyone thought Shade was a goat before it turned out she was an Echidna
RepopulateMySpeciesShipping (Knuckles X Tikal X Shade)
AltarShipping (Knuckles X The Master Emerald)
HopetoHumanityShipping (Shadow X Maria)
ReplacementPacifistShipping (Shadow X Tikal)- this used to be a really popular pairing by the way, the logic being that Tikal was similar in personality to Maria, thus Shadow potentially seeing her as a replacement for Maria
PromiseShipping (Shadow X Amy)
PatricideShipping (Shadow X E-123 Omega)- remember when they both wanted to kill Eggman?
PrototypeShipping (Shadow X Biolizard)
DaddyIssuesShipping (Shadow X Black Doom)
FakerShipping (Sonic X Shadow)
IblisTriggerShipping (Sonic X Silver)
TeamSuperShipping (Sonic X Shadow X Silver)
SonicHunterShipping (Amy X Silver)

NearsightedGirlShipping (Amy X Shadow X Silver X Werehog)
Amy'sReverseHaremShipping (Amy X Sonic X Shadow X Silver)

PikoPikoShipping (Amy X Tails)- they've both used a Piko Piko Hammer separately
HighScoreShipping (Amy X Eggman)- get the Long Hammer upgrade in SA to get the meaning
BootlegLovelyCoupleShipping (Amy X Metal Sonic)
CagedBirdShipping (Amy X E-102 Gamma)
MamaShipping (Amy X Emerl)
ObnoxiousLittleGirlShipping (Amy X Rouge)

FreedomShipping (Sonic X Rouge)- this ship has a small but dedicated fanbase going back to the early days
AmnesiaShipping (Shadow X Rouge)- I'm not the only one who thought Rouge's initial behavior in Heroes was extremely manipulative of the amnesiac Shadow, right?
Don'tForgetMyJewelsShipping (Rouge X The President)

^Good names!

Say, should I change BootlegLovelyCoupleShipping to MechaLovelyCoupleShipping? Or maybe that name should be reserved for a possible Metal Amy X Metal Sonic ship?

Food chain shipping: Tails x Cream x Cosmo

This name is perfect XD

Might make some names for STC and Sonic X ships, but those are the only two non-SEGAverse series I know much about.

[Crash32]

You guys didn't actually come up with all these, did you?

[Ivogoji]

Except like the first four or fifteen, yes, we did.

[Jeffery Mewtamer]

At least a few of the ones I posted played off jokes I've seen made before(such as Inter-kingdom Shipping and Food Chain shipping), but as far as I know, none of the names I've posted were coined elsewhere. Then again, the Pokemon fandom is the only one I can think of that tends to prefer this style of naming to portmanteaus of character names or just stating the character's names linked by one of the common conjunctions used for relationship labels.

Might make some names for STC and Sonic X ships, but those are the only two non-SEGAverse series I know much about.
