Why is it a "Ravenous Harridan"? How comes it that there aren't "Bored Ogres", "Disinterested Black Widows" or "Happy Farmers"? (Why the adjective for Harridans?)
Stop complaining. I think that's the best named monster in the game. 
That was a name suggested by a forum user and Derek took it. Was it you DsRaider? I can't remember who recommended it, but it's a great name for a monster.
Yeah, that's definitely a community suggested name and one of my favorites (I also like the Clambercoil Dragon, which also came from the community).
I kind of like it, just when you think about it, it doesn't fit since none of the other beasties have adjectives before their name. Again there are no "Smelly Ogres" or "Concerned Farmers" or anything. One of these things is not like the others and all.
DLC! DLC! DLC!
I would gladly pay $5 for a monster pack with smelly ogres in it.
Of course, there would need to be multiple new creatures including Stinky Shrills and Bellicose Butchermen. 
Just because there aren't other harridans in the game doesn't mean they don't exist. Perhaps there are harridans that are very calm and sharing. The ones in the game are named Ravenous because of their common behavior.
Besides, it's an acceptable naming practice in real life. Look at the Killer Whale. All whales kill (how else would they eat?), so why name the orca "killer" whale?
You just said it - it's name is Orca - it's nickname/common name is "Killer Whale".
