Where Did 'Moon Moon' Come From? Explaining The Internet's Favorite Slow-Witted Wolf

Some of the best memes out there are the most simple ones. Moon Moon, the elusive and silly wolf who has become not only a memorable character but a persona for many, is among these perfectly ridiculous memes. While Moon Moon's origins are rather simple, his effect on the internet has been huge.

Moon Moon's memes are in the same realm as Doge memes. They consist of absurdly captured images of wolves making funny expressions along with a caption that references the original Moon Moon. Here is the origin of the infamous Moon Moon and his impact on meme culture.

MOON MOONSIT! LOL OK


Where Did Moon Moon Come From?

Moon Moon's origins are rather simple. Moon Moon was given life after a Tumblr user was crowned with the nickname following an alter ego nickname quiz titled "What is your Werewolf Name?" This quiz had the ability to create some pretty silly personas. The nickname this user got alongside their commentary sparked interest and gained popularity very quickly.

The quiz, as seen below, consisted of rows of letters with name beginnings and ends attached to them. Choosing your first and last initial creates your own werewolf nickname. This particular quiz landed the user with the silliest of nicknames possible, "Moon Moon." The user created a post explaining their results with the quiz attached and an outraged comment on how ridiculous the nickname is and insinuating how their wolf persona would never make it in real life with a name like that. Thus, Moon Moon was brought to the internet.

How Is Moon Moon Used In Memes?

Moon Moon really only has one way to be used in memes — by being a ridiculous wolf. Moon Moon's memes consist of images of goofy-looking wolves caught off-guard with the caption attached with it naming the subject wolf as Moon Moon himself. These images can be Moon Moon alone, or with other more sophisticated wolves making fun of him and his mindless shenanigans.

One of Moon Moon's most memorable original memes was posted by a Twitter user placing him in a comic strip where a pack of wolves out hunting is suddenly interrupted by Moon Moon rushing in to "get the thing." It is very clear that Moon Moon is not the brightest or most skilled wolf in the pack, and he is likely a liability for them all.
