Good grief, this is astonishing.
The other day I tried tracking down the names for various avatar species in VRChat. Surely someone had a list curated... but bing, google, and ddg all let me down with ancient wikis or completely unrelated sites, no matter my quoting or alternate search terms (animals, avatars, creatures, etc.).
fwiw, It's not on google's first few pages for me on that exact same search, so you aren't going crazy.
This thread does show up though. There are so few relevant results that I wouldn't be surprised if this thread alone is giving enough weight to vrcarena.com to already be rolling out to some people, hence the discrepancy in these comments.
Very first hit on millionshort: https://www.vrcarena.com/
Edit: Though, I'm still trying to track down a more comprehensive list. That one's missing Nanachis, which are rather common these days.
