Superb model, but the name bugs me every time I see it. Not only does 'Centamoth' look like a name for some kind of moth, a little, fragile thingy with paper-thin wings, but it also has a prefix 'cent-' which means one-hundredth. In my opinion "Mammotaur" would be better name. It sounds strong and sturdy.
If a name of this monster is not yet set in stone, I advise you to consider changing it.

Oh, i see))) English is not my native language. I have composed this name as "Centaur + Mammoth"
I like how "Mammotaur" sounds but it also confuses a bit because Taurus - is "Bull"  from Greek.

Does "Centammoth" with double "m" sounds better?

If I were you, I'd ask some other people which name they think is better. 'Taur' is also present in the 'centaur' name (and no one knows exactly why, it could mean bull-slaying strength). It also didn't bother Blizzard wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Magnata… . But hey, it's only my opinion. What you do, ultimately depends on you.
