[benjenkinsv95]

Here's some constructive feedback on your list of brainstormed names:

1. Bubblegum=Bubblegum; Gummi bullātum: Consider using "Gummi vesicātum" as an alternative, where "vesicātum" suggests something bubble-like or blown into a bubble.

2. Jack O' Lanter=Jack O' Lantern: For a more Latinized version, perhaps "Lanternula Iacobi" (Little Lantern of Jack) could capture the essence while providing a direct Latin translation.

3. Brake lever=Lēvis frenī: "Lēvis" generally means light or slight, which may not fully capture the essence of a brake lever. "Lēva frenī" (lever of the brake) might be a more accurate term.

4. Brush=Pēniculus capillōrum: This is quite specific to a hairbrush. If you're referring to a general brush, "Scopa" (broom, brush) might be more versatile.

5. Cash register=Arcam pecūniārum: While this works, "Arcam nummāriam" (money box) could also be a suitable alternative, directly relating to a register's function.

6. Charges batteries=Renovat rēs ēlectricās: Consider "Accūmulātōrēs ēlectricōs īnfitiat" for "charges electric batteries," which is more specific to the act of charging batteries.

7. Cookie mold pan=Cācabus crustulōrum: "Cācabus" typically refers to a cooking pot. For a cookie mold pan, "Forma crustulāria" might be more precise.

8. Data chip=Tabella datārum: "Lamina datae" can also be a fitting term, where "lamina" refers to a thin plate or sheet, commonly used in the context of chips.

9. Hairdryer=Favōnius; Siccator capillaris: "Favōnius" refers to a west wind and might not be directly relevant. "Siccātor capillāris" (hair dryer) is more specific.

10. Inverse Teleporter=Transportātor inversus: "Teleportātor inversus" might be more consistent, keeping the root "teleportātor" for both regular and inverse teleporters.

11. Jar of pickles=Ōlla cucumerum in mūria: "Amphora cucumerum condītōrum" could also work, highlighting the pickling process.

12. Magic 7 ball=Pīla magica VII: The numeral "VII" is not necessary unless specifically referenced in the game. "Pīla magica" suffices for a magic ball.

13. Signal Translator=Translātor signālis: "Interpres signālis" can be another option, where "interpres" suggests interpretation, which is a key function of a translator.

14. Signal Transmitter=Tabellārius signālis: "Emissor signālis" might be more apt, as "emissor" directly relates to emitting or sending signals.

15. Sneakers=Calceāmenta āthlētica: "Calceī cursōriī" (running shoes) could be a better fit if the sneakers are specifically athletic shoes.

16. Record Player: Consider "Gramm

aphonum" or "Phonographum," which are Latinized terms derived from the Greek roots for "sound" and "writing," commonly used for early record players.

17. Teleporter=Transportātor: "Teleportātor" might be more consistent and recognizable, aligning with the modern concept of teleportation.

18. Television=Televisiō: "Visiō Tēlēmatica" (televisual vision) could be a more descriptive term, combining "visiō" (vision) and "tēlēmatica" (relating to remote transmission).

19. Toilet=Lātrīna: This is accurate. Another classical term is "Cloāca," which was used in ancient Rome for public toilets and sewers.

20. Toothpaste=Dentifrīcium: This is a good translation. Alternatively, "Pasta dentāria" (tooth paste) could also be used for clarity and simplicity.

21. Zap gun=Sclopētum ēlectricum: Consider "Sclopētum Fulmināre" (lightning gun), which captures the electric aspect more vividly.

22. Magic ball=Pīla magica: This is fine. If the ball is associated with fortune-telling or mystical powers, you might specify this, e.g., "Pīla divinātōria" (divining ball).

23. Bee hive=Alvus apum: This is good. "Alveus" could also be used for a more direct reference to the hive structure.

24. Walkie-talkie=Locūtor portābilis: "Locūtor" is more commonly a speaker than a device. You might consider "Ambulans-loquēns," directly translating to "walking-talking," to maintain the playful nature of the original term.

These suggestions aim to balance accuracy with the playful and engaging nature of game terminology. Feel free to adapt or combine them according to the context and style of your game.
