God I hope not. Horrid name. I hope we get a good return to form with the name here. Something at least vaguely German. Anything with "Wolf" in it directly would be a negative for me. Big Bad Wolf is "The Wolf." Busch Gardens Williamsburg should reference Big Bad Wolf, not build a new Big Bad Wolf.
I like the direction, but they're too long or too complicated to be feasible in my opinion.
I know naming coasters is hard—especially when the standards are as high as they are at BGW—@Nicole and I struggled for days to come up with Holzfäller—but it is proof that it can be done. Hopefully BGW marketing is taking the job seriously and has given it the time, effort, and attention it deserves. Alternatively, if they can't come up with anything good, they're free to use Holzfäller! Worked out well with DarKoaster and it would have worked out perfectly with Drachen Spire. Why mess with success?

That was about 10 seconds of effort so yes I agree. Lol. But - I do like the idea that they should avoid using Wolf in the name. And I kinda like Beast but again, you run into recognition issues. Maybe a play on Wolfsrudel to imply a pack has returned as opposed to one would be a start.
I'm now expecting either a "Wolfy McWolfFace" joke of a name, or for this to be the second time they took a coaster name from this forum.
Crap, I forgot to put the quote in. But I may have read too much into the Spoiler?

They should just call it Awooooo, really try and appeal to today's youth.
Big Bad Wolf 2: European Gigolo
Do they throw Verbolten’s lore into this? Like since the Wolf fell off the cliff car tours have been searching the area and the cliff for years and still nothing but some say the presence is felt. Or is that too much for BGW to try and do?
They should name the coaster "Hallo! Kommen Sie bitte mit uns und dann können wir diese neue Achterbahn zusammenfahren! Es wird viel Spaß machen!"
Nobody check my German, please

Das ist nicht der Name einer Achterbahn, du dumme Gans. Das ist ein Ausdruck dafür, wie aufgeregt Sie sind, die neue Achterbahn zu fahren.
Maybe this has all been discussed in this thread (I can’t remember), but the angle could be that the wolf is being hunted, and it’s been tracked to the area behind the Festhaus for a final fight? Maybe that spares the coaster from being named directly after the wolf, but idk.
Side note, I like the idea the wolf went down into the Rhine and hasn’t been seen since, tying the old drop on BBW to how the wolf has disappeared.
