No actually! Someone brought them up to me on sunday while I was finishing up, haha. I started with just "Bear that swims through land" but felt like I needed something a little punchier, and my setting has a lot of cliffs, so I imagined them swimming up cliffs to drop down from, and "Meteor Bear" popped into my head & sounded so cool that I ran with it.
That all being said, maybe I might them australian accents in my game as a lil' homage, lol
