The Wynq-naming contest
Baby Wynq
Baby Bio:
| “ | Wynq hatchlings are placid and good-natured, with a preternatural sense of rhythm. The Wynq syncopates to anything rhythmic-be it snoring, a heartbeat; or the soft whir of an oscillating fan. Wynqs are allergic to bad vibes and even worse toupees. | ” |
Adult Bio:
| “ | The laid-back Wynq uses the wattle on its head as an antenna of sorts, picking up any groovy vibes in the ethers. Once in sync, it wiggles its ears and snaps its toes in time to the music whilst humming in a guttural fashion. It is said that a Wynq's eye is bigger than its brain. | ” |

- Three of this wiki's users have participated in three of the ten successful names. Skeye was nominated by wiki administrator Qwertyxp2000 the second, Toothiefruttie was nominated by user Punctdan, and Eayan was nominated by discussion moderator Abedshark10.
- Toothiefruttie is a reference to Tutti Frutti, which indicates that a dessert was made by mixing many fruits. Most child's toothpastes are also Tutti Frutti flavored.
- Plankie may be a reference to the character "Plankton" from Spongebob Squarepants.
- Eayan means "eye" in Arabic.
- Ojo means "eye" in Spanish.
- The fact that the adult Wynq's eye is larger than its brain might be a reference to the fact that ostriches have eyes larger than their brains. Another possible ostrich reference is its two toes.

- In the files Wynq has a missing Cave Island track as heard in the soundtrack version of Cave Island.
- In the code, Wynq is called "Rumpdidi". This might be a reference to what its baby form sings (Rump didi rump didi rump).

- The Wynq resembles Mike Wazowski, the protagonist in the Pixar movie "Monsters Inc." and its prequel "Monsters University".
