Actually the "presence" of this "third" head was spotted long ago and it looks more like some semi-intentionally added curves which appear as a delineation of Cerberus' armor (or whatever the upper layer of its body is) next to the second head, but is FAR from enough to prove that there is a third head there. So for all we know, from the current angle the creature has two heads. But in any case neither of the names Orthrus or Cerberus is good enough for this thing.

Loving the Breeder! looks great fun and I like the way I imagine it plays; creating and Imp every round that is its own creature, which goes flying off to attack and get in the way of the enemy.
Unfortunately, bad name man, bad name.
Breeder (-1) Mother Breeder (-1)
Suggestions:
Breeder > Hellbreeder
Hellspawner > Hellbreeder
Breedspawn > Mother Breedspawn
Broodspawn > Mother Broodspawn
Imp Pimp > Chaos Womb

It's becoming more and more clear that the Hungarian development team has very, very little knowledge of the English language (exactly the way Nival did). This becomes apparent by the incredibly stupid way they name the creatures. 90% of the names suggested in this thread are better than the crap they are using! For example: WHAT THE HELL were they thinking when they named the upgraded Priestess VETAL!! Cleric, Sorceress and even High priestess were way better names than this. The second ugly example is the LAMASU. Why the heck should they name a unit after a deity? In addition to this they named it "Putrid Lamasu", that's the same as naming an unit "Stinking Zeus" or "Vomitting Athena"... The name of the "Fate spinner" is also totally out of the picture. What "fate" can a regular unit hold in it's hands? It should have a more "dark" and "necromantic name". The Demented also is a piece of snow. Why didn't they simply name it Fanatic. Maniac -> Fanatic would be nice transition, not like this nonsense. Why didn't they name the remaining Inferno units "Lunatic", "Psychopath", "Idiot", "Crazy man" or "Crazy Ivan" while they they were at it?! Is that what they consider "innovative" - naming their creatures with dull names??? For a 100th time I say that according to me, Black hole are just adding random new stuff into the game JUST TO HAVE SOMETHING FREAKING NEW IN IT, regardless if it's good or bad! Shame! Shame! Shame!

I actually like these ones pretty much. Especially the Archon stuff, regardless of the fact that it would be more suitable for a male mage.
P.S. - I'd have to say it again - RADIANT GLORY sucks hard!!!

I don't care if Morning Glories have anything to do with norse mythology, Valkyrie would be SUCH a better name for them. And would actually give them some flavour and 'feel'.
Their names are just so shallow and uninspired and boring that, heck, even 'Light Elemental' would do them some good.
Radiant Glory (-1) Blazing Glory (-1)
Suggestions:
Deva
Divinity
Valkyrie
Light Elemental
Hyperion
Apollo
Vision
Sanctity
Torch
Green Lantern

Please I beg you, do not use any Valkyrie for that sun lady. Not only that it is far from the legend description, also open up for real Valkyrie probably on Sylath the wind based faction: as incarnation of Pegasi or anything aside the name for the naked spirit lady.

Actually I like the name "Glory" or "Glories" for the new unit. A name I would like to change is the Lamassu to Sphinx and the reason is that "Sphinx" is more relatable to the english language I think and there have been sphinxes in Heroes V (in the form of statues).

Hello everyone, just want to strongly encourage you to continue posting ideas. We had an official update on the nomenclature very recently with some MUCH better creature names, so your protests are generally being heard 
That said, there's still room for improvement, so keep going with the suggestions.
Since they have already been totally revealed to you, I guess I can now share with you the proposal I submitted for the first three factions:
Quote:
Sentinel / Praetorian
Crossbowman / Marksman
Priestess / Vestal
Griffin / Imperial Griffin
Sun Rider / Solar Potentate
Radiant Glory / Blazing Glory
Seraph (WITH lore explanation) / Celestial
Maniac / Lunatic
Hell Hound / Cerberus
Temptress / Succubus
Breeder / Progenitor
Tormented One / Ruptured One
Juggernaut / Eradicator
Pit Fiend / Pit Lord
Skeleton / Skeletal Legionnaire
Ghoul / Revenant
Ghost / Spectre
Lich / Archlich
Lamasu / Chimera
Vampire / Vampire Lord
Fate Spinner / Namtaru
Of course, the devs should also be entirely aware of this thread, so don't think my post got precedence or anything
