[@look4thestarss]

Yeah i often googled the gems to see how they looked and they were the exact same colours

[@Ink_Nova]

I always called pearl and vollyballs fusion "Royal Pearl". I think I heard it somewhere and it just felt right. both were pearls to royalty ,or well the diamonds who are basically the gem equivalent, and their look just screams "Royal Guard"

It really does

best diamond? you do realise thats so wrong. all the diamonds are bad, but the most innocent has to be pink. just a reminder shes never shattered anyone. yes she did abandon a gem, however keep in mind abandonment isnt torture, anyways main point is; pink diamond was the best diamond if you think about it. blue diamond ordered gems to be shattered, millions of them. shes just as terrible as yellow.

[@chillfrosted2670]

​@@user-StarMastertheyre still bigots though

[@mrzenox9835]

I feel like it's related to the chemistry of their gemstones, when they fuse their gemstones changes color which is not normal, for example when garnet is formed she doesn't have a sapphire gemstone and a ruby gemstone as her gems but two garnets, perhaps this is how they decide their naming? based on the new type of their gemstones?

[@toonsnooper]

Solid theory! 🤔

[@Kyss111]

No... I don't think their gems changed, they just chose a name that felt right

[@sckaze777]

Their gems look the same except the color though?

[@marcoscruz8431]

I'm Sorry but It has nothing to with chemistry, a Ruby and a Sapphire would never make a Garnet

[@mrzenox9835]

@@sckaze777 gems from the same type can have different gemcuts like jasper having a diamond cut unlike other jaspers, or pearl having an oval gem unlike other pearls. so in theory Garnet could have two garnet gemstones but just with different cuts, after all gems can't change their gem color.

[@sandy_nes31]

My idea is that fusions being formed is like when a gem is made. When emerged, they already know their name, purpose and function But, considering how cross gem fusions weren't ever planned to happen, they don't necessarily have a purpose or orders to follow

[@toonsnooper]

That’s actually a solid theory 🤔

[@mertensiam3384]

OOOHH that's incredible

[@SoftAlexandra3]

I want to add to the topic: On regard of cross-gem fusion, the properties of the real life gems also apply. For example, rubies and sapphires are almost identical, only difference being rubies containing chrome in their structure that give it their red hues. In a similar matter, garnets are also related to the previous 2 stones, which explains the naming. The convention carries forward when you think about it. Obsidian can be both a natural found mineral or a volcanic glass made from melting of many rocks, including gems, in short time. That would also explain my point with naming convention. Another good example is Malachite actually being similar to both jasper AND lapis in structure.

[@thejuggernautofspades9453]

We learning crystal structures with this one 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥

[@amirjohnson6800]

They pick the name because the fusions are often singular gems too. Garnet is ruby+sapphire but theres also a singular gem named garnet on homeworld. Steven is the only one freestyling the names because theres only one Steven

[@ada_funni]

So it’s possible to recreate most gems that exist through fusion

[@toonsnooper]

That may be the case 🤔

[@XFD42069]

I love the fact this fandom hasn’t died.

[@fivepainbbles]

I actually think that the fusions that are super big are really big due to unstable or destructive relationships between the fused gems, not the fact that their name ends with “ite”, since garnet’s power and amethyst’s destructive tendencies together make something awful and powerful, and also just… everything about lapis and jasper’s relationship.

[@Anarchy_Angel94]

What about Alexandrite, Sardonyx and Obsidian? They're pretty big but aren't anything like Sugilite or Malachite.

[@WinterPains]

I could def see it being a mixture, vut as someone else mentioned it cant be just this.

[@normal6483]

Size has more to do with the number of gems involved and their relative size than anything else. Fusions with 3 or more gems tend to be the largest, and fusions with large gems like Jasper or Pink Diamond tend to grow really large.

[@WinterPains]

@@normal6483 i think there may also be reason to believe that the personalities of the gems involved may influence the appearance of the fusions.

[@thejuggernautofspades9453]

​@WinterPains they can also choose to change how they look, like how amethyst expedited her respawn timer and came back deformed. Idr if she was cracked then

[@andistansbury4366]

[@isThisTakenToo---]

my theory is that they don't choose their own names. gems are born with a purpose, as someone in the comments already said. the reason smokey didn't know her name at first is that amethyst and steven both have identity issues and self worth and purpose issues, so it makes sense that their fusion wouldn't know herself at first. but that's just my theory. a gem theory

[@chillfrosted2670]

i wouldnt even say this is a theory. its so apparent, why else would blue diamond laugh after seeing garnet call herself a garnet. probably cause shes so wrong. also, the title was very misleading. it stated how they get their names and just proposed a hypothesis. anyways, your theory well, i wouldnt even call it a theory

[@frogg9021]

I feel like it also has to do with the inherent abilities of the fusions/the games making them up, compared to other gems on homeworld. Garnets, who typically hold positions of power, and are good at combat, would make complete sense for a Ruby(a soldier), and a sapphire (an elite in gem society) to hold similar abilities to a regular garnet. Another example could be opal, we didn’t see any regular opals in the show but considering they reflect light so much, it would make sense that they have light powers. Opal’s arrows are made of light and explode into light shards before lighting up the whole area. Perhaps Opals on Home-world have a similar or same ability to light areas up?

[@BonnieWhatever-tp2mu]

Maybe it’s bc it’s the real name of those fusion gems irl💀💀

[@aethersword7823]

When you realize unless steven fuses with a quartz, there's no quartz involved in the fusion, so rainbow quartz isn't actually quartz, for example, I think Opal would be a better name for steven/pearl fusion than pearl/amethyst

[@uwuowo214]

Quarts refers to his gem in those situations, due to gem to gem connections The reverse is true for human names, human human connections

[@fluffyllama1505]

​@uwuowo214 Yes but his gem is not a quartz, it's a diamond

[@uwuowo214]

@@fluffyllama1505 Rose and pearl probably called their fusion quarts to keep pink hidden Steven wouldn't know the difference as he just refers to it as his gem iirc so that gap in his and others knowledge would likely lead to them just saying quartz while later it's more of a naming convention.

[@DjGuga06]

​@@fluffyllama1505Even if it's weird,Pink really transformed herself into a Rose Quartz so her fusions come from the mix of a Rose Quartz and other gem,not a Diamond plus other gem

We DO have an equivalent to Rainbow Quartz in Little Homeworld which is Angel Aura Quartz (the terms to describe the gem are used interchangeably) The single gemed Rainbow "Angel Aura" Quartz has blue skin and yellow hair and different colored accents on her form.

[@Unknown_Narrator]

0:28 Pretty sure that there is single fusions that you never mentions which was revealed in the games

[@amberluppens3292]

I always just assumed that after fusing the fusions just sort of… knew their name, or at least had a sense of what felt right, what felt correct to them, much like alters in a DID system (or at least in my limited understanding of those). Blue Diamond probably made that comment because 1. She’s never fused before so she wouldn’t Know what it’s like, and 2. It’s outlawed so information on minor things like how fusions come about their names wouldn’t be documented because the goal is to prevent it from happening, not to understand it

[@EdTheCreator]

after the Pink Diamond reveal it kinda feels disheartening to call those gems quartz but it would make sense if it goes by color and not gem class

[@thecherrytree]

I always thought of the cross fusion naming system being more of a combination of the gem's status. Sapphire (really high rank) ruby(low rank soldier) = high rank leader But the issues with that come in with Rose/Pink Diamond and Steven and 3+ gem fusions A simple explaination for the 3+ cross gem fusions being the gem ranking be in more of an additive sense than a subtractive. The value of a garnet + with the small amount if value added by a pearl and an amethyst making alexandrite. With stevrn and rose ir diesnt make sonde why all the fusions from these teo are are quartz or common gems. But my theory on this is how rose was able to make herself perceived as a wuartz soldier her fusions reflect that too desite her true nature as a diamond. The wuartz form being Steven's default meaning his fusions reflect that

[@Miscellaneous_Minx]

I think all gem fusions have a basic singular gem version. And since the gems are basically super advanced alien AI, it would make sense that their gem fusion names might come from some “collective knowledge” where they know, maybe intrinsically, what their name is based on the single gems

I’m not the only one to ask this, but how does this affect Steven’s previously named fusions after the big reveal? He’s not a quartz, so how could he make a Rainbow Quartz and a Smoky Quartz? They didn’t change their names, as evidenced by Steven Universe Future.

[@ALocalFreak]

What would a fusion of amethyst and the zircon guy be called then?

[@toonsnooper]

Tanzanite

[@kanjifaith6619]

Such cool theories!

[@phantoist]

What's interesting to me is that, Steven/Rose's gem isn't actually a rose quarts, but a pink diamond, so Rainbow Quartz and Smoky Quartz caught my attention since the big revela, cause they still have quartz in their name, even though there is no rose quartz. So that makes me think that the fusion actually chooses their identity based on their characteristics, but it's also interesting how we never see a gem "deciding" their name, other than Smoky's, since, for example, Sunstone just says their own name naturally.

[@cervo5224]

I was thinking if its abouts the minerals that makes the gems combined to form a different gem, and thats the name. Even if its a half science, not a chemistry exactly correct. Maybe an azurite, a pirite and a calcite fusion could form a lapis lazuli, for example. Since Lapis is this 3 minerals combined into one. The result could be a different looking lapis, maybe with some different powers, but could still be considered a lapis.

Spoiler warning for anyone who hans't finished the showv (at least up until episode A Single Pale Rose s5e18) !!! I honestly don't know how I haven't noticed before, but after the gems find out the true nature of steven's mom and his gem, would the gems he fuses with need to be renamed? For example, a quartz and amethyst make smoky quartz, but would it be the same with a pink diamond instead?

[@toonsnooper]

Not really, because the form a gem presents as affects what the fusion looks like. There’s a scene where the gems shape-shift into Steven and they fuse to form a Steven looking alexandrite.
