Sierra is not an uncommon name, River as well. Probably more.

Well, Tundra is already in use. Forest is more common than you know. Arid would work if it didn't mean what it does.
Not biomes but ...
Cesspool is an acceptable nickname tho.
South wetlands is reserved only for the exceptionally hot individuals.
Chaparral?

Tangent but.. Wow it didn’t even occur to me that paludariums were so named because that’s the type of ecosystem they are mimicking, rather than some guy named Paul invented a cool-style terrarium/aquarium merger.. (example below)
TIL!

What are you doing steppe nomad?
Using flat terrain to facilitate fast movement and colonization. I sure hope no one invents a way to kill me while I descend on your village

Meaning "plain", "field", "meadow", "battlefield"
🎶 One of these things is not like the others 🎶
Love is a battlefield
I guess cause when the name was made, a good place for a battle was a big ole field. (Speculation)
Yeah, what the fuck?
A plain is mostly grasses. Meadows, fields, and battlefields have flowers.
And love can bloom on them.
Does Forest not count? Gump is sad.
Xeric Shrubland is going to Google his name in 16 years and dedicate his life to hunting you down.

Montane
there's probably somebody named lake
Actress Lake Bell? She has a lot of credits. Girl works.
I'm going to change my name to Peat Bog
Theorycrafting this - Tundra would be a nice name. So would Mesa, Fen, and Delta.
Delta you say?
Sitting behind these hairdos in class and at the theater definitely sucked back in the 80's.
Taiga
Xeric Shrubland is definitely a LOTR character.
Xeric as a name actually sounds kinda badass
If I ever see it as a name I'm just going to assume it's someone who was named Eric by his parents and had it changed to be edgier when he was fourteen
What about For(r)est Gump?
Taiga is a nice name too
I would name a child Orchard.
Tim Tundra
Xeric sounds kind of like a cool name to give a kid if you want that kid to suffer for their entire life.
But then again they could rise above it and become a cool person, maybe not quite on the level of Streetlamp leMoose but close.
They'd be pretty popular with the Runescape crowd, for whatever that's worth.

Naming my kid Tundra or Elfin now, thanks!
Ephemeral Pond IIII. I am named after my great grandfather.
If I have a daughter, I'll name her Swamp Thing.
Sounds like a life destined for venirial disease
Takes “draining the swamp” to a whole new (medical) level.

I bet you could find someone named chaparral.
Also I'm sure there's a scrub joke to be had here.
