Happy Birthday, MK-mama!
Pass it along-- I'm officially working on the Definitive Yu-Gi-Oh 'Shippers list. This isn't a rehash of LFangor's list, it's an explanation as to why certain names were picked. If you want to theorize (or confirm) the reasoning behind a certain pairing's name, then let us know!
The way it'll work is that we'll use Japanese names-- but for characters whose names are confirmed for other languages or special pronunciations, we'll spell them that way. Confused?
Here's an example: Anzu, (Katsuya) Jounouchi, (Hiroto) Honda, (Ryuuji) Otogi, (Ryouta) Kajiki, Seto (Kaiba), Mokuba, Yuugi, Pharaoh Atemu, Varon, Malik, Isis, Amelda, Raphael, Tenma, Pegasus, Shaadi, Shaada, Mahaado, etc... Please note that some of these spellings need confirmation. If you want to provide it, please do!
Certain characters have "other forms." For example:
-Ryou Bakura (Holder/Vessel)
-Yami no Bakura (Spirit of the Millennium Ring)
-Thief King Bakura (Ancient Egypt)
-Yuugi Mutou
-Yami no Yuugi
-Pharaoh Atemu
-Seto Kaiba
-Priest Seto
Also, if you're not familiar with some of the Japanese names, here's a brief glossary of theLesser Knowns:
-Ryuuji Otogi (Duke Devlin)
-Ryouta Kajiki (Mako Tsunami)
-Katsuya Jounouchi (Joey Wheeler)
-Hiroto Honda (Tristan Taylor)
-Pegasus J. Crawford (Maximillion Pegasus)
-Shizuka Jounouchi (Serenity Wheeler)
-Roba (Espa Roba)
-Ghost Kotsuzaka (Bones)
-Pandora (Arkana)
-Catherine (Catherine - Pandora's [dead] girlfriend, from the early Battle City arc)
-Shogo (from the first Yu-Gi-Oh movie, a 30-minute short.)
-Yami no Kamen, Hikari no Kamen (Lumos and Umbra, from the early Battle City arc. Their names mean Dark Mask and Light Mask, respectively.)
NOTE: All names are listed in Western order (given name, surname) except in the cases of characters who are rarely/never referred to by their given names. Examples of the latter include Ryouta (Kajiki), Ryuuji (Otogi), Katsuya (Jounouchi), and Hiroto (Honda).
And now...
The Yu-Gi-Oh Shippers List
Abandonshipping (Gozaburo x Noa x Mokuba) - Gozaburo felt abandoned (presumably by his wife, and Noa), Noa felt abandoned by Gozaburo, and Mokuba felt abandoned by Seto

Anruishipping (Shaadi x Yuugi) - ?
Antagoshipping (Yami no Bakura x Seto) - Yami no Bakura loves to antagonize Seto... this is especially obvious in the Memory arc.
Apocalypshipping (Yami no Malik x Seto x Isis) - The end of the world is coming-- says Yami no Malik and Isis, anyway. Seto doesn't like the world very much anyway...
Apparishipping (Roba x Kotsuzaka) - They're both rather ghostly at times... "appari" undoubtedly comes from "apparition."
Apprenticeshipping (Mahaado x Mana) - Mana is Mahaado's apprentice in black magic.
Aptshipping (Honda x Isis) -?
Aquaintanceshipping (Honda x Roba) - Honda and Roba really don't know each other too well, so they're acquaintances.
Archaishipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Priest Seto x Thief King Bakura) - They're all ancient characters, and another word for ancient might be "archaic."
Ardentshipping (Honda x Shizuka) - When someone is "ardently in love," they're very expressive. This is certainly true of Honda's affection for Shizuka.
Argenshipping (Pegasus x Ryou) - ?
Aromashipping (Kajiki x Honda x Jounouchi) - ?

Atticshipping (Ryou x Mana) - ?

Balanceshipping (Shaadi x Isis x Ryou) - All three of these people are charged (or have charged themselves) with keeping the balance. Shaadi keeps the balance of the distribution of the Millennium Items, Isis keeps the balance of the past and future, and Ryou keeps the balance of himself with his darker half.
Balladshipping (Kajiki x Ryou x Shizuka) - ?
Bananashipping (Honda x Malik) - Honda got turned into a monkey in the Noa/Virtual World arc, while Malik seemed to have an odd affinity for the fruit. Who knows why?
Bandageshipping (Yami no Bakura x Ryou x Shizuka) - ?
Barbecueshipping (Honda x Kajiki) - Kajiki was BBQing fish when everyone met them. As for Honda... I have no idea.
Barrenshipping (Pegasus x Catherine) - ?
Barriershipping (Seto x Yami no Yuugi x Noa) - All of them have barriers preventing them from truly loving-- Seto's is self-imposed, Yami no Yuugi's is his lack of his own body, or memories, and Noa's is the fact that he's stuck in the virtual world.
Barshipping (Keith x Jounouchi x Honda x Yuugi) - ?
Batteryshipping (Jounouchi x Yami no Bakura x Ryou) - ?
Battleshipping (Seto x Jounouchi x Yuugi) - The three of these guys are always battling. ALWAYS.
Bayshipping (Priest Seto x Noa) - ?
Beachshipping (Jounouchi x Kajiki x Shizuka) - Kajiki is the one with the ocean obsession, but why Jounouchi and Shizuka? Maybe they like the beach?
Beehiveshipping (Mai x Rebecca) - ?
Behalfshipping (Roba x Ryou) - ?
Bickershipping (Malik x Jounouchi x Seto) - They all bicker. If not in general, with each other quite a bit, too.
Biteshipping (Seto x Possessed Jounouchi x Yuugi) - ?
Bittershipping (Pegasus x Honda) - Pegasus is pretty bitter about losing Cyndia, but why is Honda in there? What's he bitter about?
Bladeshipping (Pandora x Yuugi) - When Pandora dueled Yuugi, there were blades about to cut the loser's legs off...
Blameshipping (Possessed Jounouchi x Anzu) - Would Anzu really be able to blame Jounouchi if he did anything to her while he was possessed? Who knows?
Blankshipping (Jounouchi x Shogo) - Shogo drew up a blank when he saw Jounouchi. "What, you're a duelist?"
Blessedshipping (Priest Mahaado x Shizuka) - Just a wild guess, but Mahaado considered himself blessed to be in the service of Atemu, while Shizuka finds herself blessed to have a big brother like Jounouchi, and friends like Yuugi, Honda, Otogi, Mai, and Anzu.
Blindshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Yuugi) - You'd have to be blind not to see the oddity behind this one...?
Bloodshipping (Yami no Malik x Gozaburo) - Both of 'em are obsessed with blood (or vengeance, as it were).
Blueshipping (Seto x Kisara) - A close cousin to Azureshipping, this one deals with Seto's blue eyes, and Kisara's blue hair, eyes, and oh yeah-- her ka spirit, the [Blue Eyes] White Dragon
Bondangeshipping (Yami no Malik x Otogi) - Not sure about Otogi, but Yami no Malik sure has a thing for bondage. Remember his duel with Mai?

Bounceshipping (Ryou x Rebecca) - ?
Boundshipping (Thief King Bakura x Yuugi) - ?
Boxshipping (Mokuba x Anzu) - When Anzu saved Mokuba from the Rare Hunters, they got stuck in a warehouse full of boxes. Anzu used them to prop Mokuba up so he could escape, but she fell and got turned into an enemy.
Breathshipping (Shaadi x Cyndia) - Are these two even breathing anymore? We know Cyndia probably isn't, but...
Bribeshipping (Mai x Ryuzaki) - Mai bribed Ryuzaki to duel Jounouchi at Duelist Kingdom. Ryuzaki accepted the bait.

Bruiseshipping (Honda x Jounouchi x Ryuzaki) - ?
Brutalshipping (Keith x Ryuzaki) - ?
Buddyshipping (Honda x Jounouchi) - This one should be obvious... these two are best buddies. [Meaning, NOTHING more, right? Why call it BUDDYshipping?]
Burntshipping (Keith x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - Keith -in the anime- set a fire in a warehouse after Yuugi's puzzle was broken. Yuugi nearly got burnt to a crisp assembling the puzzle again, before Jounouchi saved him.
Butterflyshipping (Ryou x Mai x Anzu) - ?
Cageshipping (Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi x Malik) - ?
Cakeshipping (Cyndia x Mokuba) - Not that we know much about Cyndia, but Mokuba sure loves cake, right? He is a kid!
Candleshipping (Yami no Bakura x Seto x Ryou) - ?
Cardshipping (Sugoroku x Yuugi) - Sugoroku is the Kame Game Store's card expert, and Yuugi, his grandson is his protogé. There are few cards Yuugi doesn't know about, or have.
Careshipping (Honda x Shizuka x Yuugi) - Honda cares a great deal about his friends, especially Jounouchi and Shizuka, Shizuka cares deeply for Jounouchi, Mai, and Anzu, and Yuugi cares for everyone probably a bit more than is healthy.
Carmenshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Seto) - ?
Casteshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Thief King Bakura) - A caste is sort of like a class or ranking. Pharaoh Atemu's at the top, while Bakura is pretty much at the bottom. King or no, he's still a thief, forced to steal to survive. His "royal status" is merely self-proclaimed.
Castleshipping (Priest Seto x Jounouchi x Seto) - ?
Cavaliershipping (Yami no Yuugi x Rebecca) - ?
Ceoshipping (Pegasus x Seto x Otogi) - This one's easy. They're all CEOs!
Chanceshipping (Seto x Otogi x Yuugi) - Despite Kaiba not believing in the Heart of the Cards, chance has saved him on more than one occasion. Otogi favors dice, which are always a chancey way to bet on things, and Yuugi, well... Heart of the Cards, anyone?
Changeshipping (Otogi x Malik) - Both Otogi and Malik are out to change things that happened in the past-- Otogi to change the people's view of Yuugi after he defeated Pegasus, and Malik to change people's view of the Pharaoh and his "need" to be brought into power/protected once more.
Chaosshipping (Priest Seto x Thief King Bakura x Yami no Bakura x Seto) - As if a vessel and his dark half aren't enough, mix two antagonists in the mix and you have CHAOS!
Charmshipping (Shizuka x Mana) - Both of these ladies are quite CHARMING, and manage to CHARM others quite well-- though quite accidentally, it seems.
Chaseshipping (Honda x Otogi) - Honda and Otogi both spend almost all their chasing Shizuka-- not like they'd ever have time for one another, unless they crashed into each other mid-chase.
Cheatshipping (Jounouchi x Roba) - During Jounouchi's duel with Roba, Roba cheated by having his little brothers spy on Jounouchi's hand.
Cheershipping (Otogi x Shizuka) - Otogi and Shizuka are both cheerleaders in their own right, but only Otogi actually has his own cheerleading team.
Cherryshipping (Jounouchi x Amane) - ? (What??? Amane's dead! Jounouchi doesn't even know who she is!)
Chibishipping (Yuugi x Mokuba) - Yuugi and Mokuba are both a bit short. One of the more derogatory Japanese words to describe such "vertically challenged" people is 'chibi.'
Chimeshipping (Thief King Bakura x Malik x Mai) - ?
Chuteshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Kisara) - ? (Like chutes and ladders?)
Circleshipping (Honda x Jounouchi x Miho) - Honda professed a great romantic interest in Miho in the first series, and Jounouchi watches
Citronshipping (Thief King Bakura x Malik) - ? (All I know is that citron is a kind of orange color...)
Clashshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Yuugi) - These two might be part of some epic battle called the "Clash of the Titans." Their goals certainly clash.
Clearshipping (Seto x Yuugi x Mokuba) - To them, everything they're after or want is as plain and clear as day. Right...?
Cliffshipping (Jounouchi's otousan x Jounouchi) - Jounouchi would sooner throw himself off a cliff than date his own father.
Clingshipping (Yuugi x Anzu x Mokuba) - Yuugi clings to Anzu, Anzu sort of clings to Yuugi, Mokuba clings to the both of them in a strange way... Someone get these people some dryer sheets!
Cloudshipping (Noa x Shizuka) - ?
Clovershipping (Noa x Kisara) - ?
Coastershipping (Ryuzaki x Roba) - ?
Cobaltshipping (Priest Seto x Seto x Kisara) - Yet anothe variation of Azureshipping and Blueshipping, this one is a deeper blue-- probably because Seto Kaiba is thrown in the mix.
Coerceshipping (Strings x Kotsuzaka) - Strings was a mime used as a puppet by Marik. But what about Kotsuzaka?
Coinshipping (Anzu x Miho) - ?
Commitshipping (Priest Seto x Priestess Isis x Seto x Isis) - They're all very committed to their beliefs, faiths, and goals.
Conceitshipping (Yami no Bakura x Mai) - Yami no Bakura and Mai are pretty conceited, if you think about it.
Conditionshipping (Gozaburo x Mokuba) - ?
Conquestshipping (Varon x Mai) - Who knows why this one is Conquestshipping, but here's a guess: conquest is a fancy word for a determined search for something, or the desperate need to reach a particular goal. Mai wants to be a better duelist, not one-upped by guys like Yuugi and Jounouchi, while Varon, well...
Conscriptshipping (Gozaburo x Seto x Mokuba) - ?
Conspireshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Malik x Ryou) - All of these guys (except Ryou, really) conspired together to bring about some not-so-pleasant endings for Yuugi and Co.
Controlshipping (Malik x Noa) - This one's easy-- Malik and Noa are both notorious for controlling others-- Malik for Jounouchi and Anzu, particularly, and Noa for controlling Mokuba.
Copeshipping (Keith x Anzu x Shizuka) - ?
Copyshipping (Jounouchi x Mai x Anzu) - ?
Corruptshipping (Thief King Bakura x Priest Seto) - Both of these hapless guys got corrupted by the dark evil that is Zork Necrophidius.

Crestshipping (Seto x Isis x Shaadi) - ?
Crosshipping (Yami no Malik x Yuugi) - ?
Crownshipping (Pegasus x Anzu) - ?
Crushshipping (Honda x Otogi x Shizuka) - Honda and Otogi both have horrible crushes on Shizuka.
Crypticshipping (Shaadi x Rishid) - These two guys couldn't get any more cryptic if they lived in a crypt-- oh wait, they do.
Crystalshipping (Anzu x Mana) - ?
Cunishipping (Mai x Anzu x Shizuka) - ? I'm afraid I might know what the "cuni" comes from, and I don't think it's G-rated.
Curveshipping (Rishid x Malik x Jounouchi) - ?
Danceshipping (Mai x Anzu) - Anzu's the notoriously dedicated dancer, but Mai's got moves of her own-- no doubt about that.
Dangershipping (Yami no Malik x Seto) - Both of these guys are pretty dangerous-- depending on who you are.
Darkshipping (Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi) - Easy: both of these guys are the first "dark" halves we encounter in the series.
Dashshipping (Miho x Shizuka) - ?
Dealshipping (Yami no Bakura x Ryou x Amane) - ? (My theory: Yami no Bakura makes Ryou a deal to bring back Amane from the dead...)
Deathshipping (Yami no Malik x Ryou) - Both of these guys are just a bit obsessed with death, don't you think? More accurately, the death of someone close to them. Sort of.
Defershipping (Shaadi x Malik) - ?
Deignshipping (Shaadi x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - ?
Deishipping (Pegasus x Noa) - ?
Delusionshipping (Pandora x Catherine) - ? (These guys are canon, though! What's the delusion? Well, Pandora was a bit DELUSIONAL after Catherine died...)

Denyshipping (Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi x Anzu) - ?
Depthshipping (Gozaburo x Pegasus) - ?
Devotionshipping (Jounouchi x Anzu) - Both of these are Yuugi's truest and most devoted friends. They're more dedicated to his cause than anyone else.
Diamondshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Mai) - ?
Diceshipping (Yami no Bakura x Otogi)
Digshipping (Arthur x Ryou) - Arthur (aka Professor Hopkins) is an archaelogist, while Ryou's father was, as well. They're both used to digging in the dirt for clues.
Distrustshipping (Seto x Shaadi) - Seto wouldn't trust Shaadi as far as he could throw him. And that's assuming Shaadi has a corporeal form to THROW.
Divulgeshipping (Yami no Malik x Thief King Bakura x Pharaoh Atemu) - ?
Domashipping (Raphael x Amelda x Varon) - Still not sure on if Doma is really the right name for this group, but assuming it is, these guys are all in it. The only one missing is their leader, Dartz.
Doodleshipping (Rebecca x Amane) - ?
Doomshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Mokuba) - ? (What does Mokuba have to do with it?)
Doubtshipping (Seto x Malik x Ryou) - ?
Downshipping (Keith x Cyndia) - ?
Dragonshipping (Jounouchi x Yami no Yuugi) - Of all people to have Dragonshipping, why these two? I'd think it'd be more appropriate for Seto x Jounouchi or Jounouchi x Ryuzaki, but... anyhow, Jounouchi is famous because of his Red Eyes Black Dragon, while Yami no Yuugi's got his 3 God Dragons. Both of them are also holders of Legendary Dragons (Helmos and Timaeus, respectively)
Dramashipping (Jounouchi x Kajiki) - This might have something to do with how overdramatic both guys can be...
Dreamshipping (Jounouchi x Yuugi x Mai) - In Yuugi and Jounouchi's DREAMS would they get to have any kind of a three-way with Mai.
Dripshipping (Kajiki x Anzu) - "A drip is a drop, a drop is full of water, water is nature, nature is beautiful, thanks for the compliment."
Driveshipping (Malik x Mai) - ?
Droidshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Strings) - When Strings fought Yami no Yuugi, he was pretty much a droid. He wasn't thinking for himself, really.
Dulcetshipping (Mai x Isis x Shizuka) - ?
Dungeonshipping (Pegasus x Otogi) - ? (I know Pegasus has a fondness for dungeons, but Otogi?)
Dustshipping (Yami no Malik x Catherine) - ?
Dynamicshipping (Kajiki x Rebecca) - ?
Ecoshipping (Kajiki x Haga) - This one's easy-- Kajiki is all about the oceans, while Haga's all about bugs. They're both very interested in some part of the ecosystem, don't you think?
Egoshipping (Keith x Seto x Mai) - As if we needed the egotistical, arrogant, conceited people to get involved in more orgies...
Eliteshipping (Keith x Seto) - ?
Enigmashipping (Priest Shaada x Shaadi) - An enigma is a mystery wrapped in a decade-old sandwich. So are Shaada and Shaadi. Enigmas, I mean, not sandwiches.
Envyshipping (Anzu x Rebecca) - Anzu and Rebecca both envy each other for the attention one or the other gets from Yuugi or Yami no Yuugi.
Ettushipping (Seto x Jounouchi x Mai) - ? (Does this have anything to do with the quote from Cesar-- "Et tu, Brutus?"
Euroshipping (Seto x Ryou) - Well, we all know Seto's a globe-trotter, and in the dub, Ryou's a transfer student from London. But he's pure Japanese in the original version, so this doesn't make much sense.
Evilshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Rebecca) - ? (I can understand YnM and YnB, but how is Rebecca evil?)
Executeshipping (Yami no Malik x Shaadi) - Both of these guys execute people who don't do as they please. YnM used this tactic in every one of his duels, and Shaadi did it to those who displeased him (in the first series/arc of the manga).
Exodushipping (Jounouchi x Yuugi x Haga) - Not sure why it's Exodus and not Exodia, but if it's got anything to do with the card set, Haga threw out Yuugi's Exodia cards, and Jounouchi dived into the ocean to get them back. Plus they all made the "exodus" to Duelist Kingdom, only to get beat at one time or another.
Exoticshipping (Yami no Bakura x Isis) - If you consider Egypt exotic, then sure-- these two are exotic.
Eyeshipping (Yami no Bakura x Pegasus) - Yami no Bakura stole Pegasus' Millennium Eye. 'Nuff said. (Personally, I think this would work better with Akunadin x Pegasus 'shipping, but how the hell would that come about? No, I don't want to know.
Fadeshipping (Yami no Malik x Jounouchi) - Yami no Malik faded from existence after his defeat, and Jounouchi faded last from Mai's mind while she was trapped in the Dark Game.
Fakeshipping (Yami no Malik x Jounouchi x Malik) - ?
Fallenshipping (Pandora x Malik) - Both of these guys have fallen from grace, for bad, but purely understandable (losing his wife, losing his father) reasons.
Falseshipping (Strings x Catherine) - ?
Faltershipping (Kotsuzaka x Rebecca) - ?
Fateshipping (Raphael x Yami no Yuugi) - Raphael is the one who believes strongest in fate-- as does Yami no Yuugi, but they're on polar opposite sides as to whose Fate is better.
Faultshipping (Seto x Anzu x Mokuba) - I should know this one-- Mamono and I came up with it, and now it's official! YAY! I believe our theory was that Seto would be at fault for something, causing Anzu to gravitate toward him, but Mokuba to drift away. Where would Mokuba drift to? Anzu, of course? Plus can't you just see him crushing on her? (Shameless plug: I have a fic of this coming out soon. Actually it starts out as Boxshipping, turned into Faultshipping, and then... who knows?)
Fawnshipping (Pegasus x Haga) - ?
Fearshipping (Yami no Malik x Isis) - Yami no Malik has something to fear from his "vessel's" sister-- she's the one that knows how to get rid of him
Feathershipping (Yami no Yuugi x Jounouchi x Yuugi) - ?
Feignshipping (Yami no Malik x Pegasus x Otogi) - Just a theory, but all of these guys have feigned innocence at one time or another, when they were really involved in less-than-nice deeds.
Femmeshipping (Mai x Isis x Anzu) - Grrl power is at its peak with these three power girls. Watch out-- it's the femme fatale!
Fetishipping (Yami no Malik x Malik x Yami no Bakura) - All of these baddies have some bad fetishes-- Yami no Malik with revenge and taking over the world, Malik with the same, and Yami no Bakura with-- hey! Vengeance and thievery.
Figureshipping (Isis x Mai x Anzu x Shizuka) - Just because we had to get a bit of a legal conflict in here, let's toss Shizuka into the Femmeshipping mix and get some HOT FIGURES groovin' it on together!
Fillershipping (Noa x Rebecca) - Both of these characters appeared solely in the anime series, during "filler" arcs that were never in the manga.
Flareshipping (Seto x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - ?
Flickshipping (Yami no Kamen x Hikari no Kamen x Yami no Yuugi x Seto) - ? (These four guys were all involved in a tag team duel together, but why 'flick?')
Flippantshipping (Otogi x Mai) - Another theory-- these two are pretty flippant about affection, for the most part. Neither of them seem to be very serious about romance, even when they're obviously interested in someone.
Flipshipping (Seto x Noa x Yuugi) - ?
Floatshipping (Thief King Bakura x Priestess Isis) - ?
Flowshipping (Priestess Isis x Kisara) - ?
Flurryshipping (Ryou x Yuugi x Mokuba) - ?

Gainshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Kajiki) - ?
Gambleshipping (Otogi x Jounouchi x Isis) - Otogi gambles with dice, Jounouchi gambles with his Chance-themed deck, and Isis gambles based on her "visions" of the future.
Gameshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Otogi) - Both of these guys happen to likes games-- maybe a bit too much.
Geminishipping (Thief King Bakura x Yami no Bakura) - Twins? Well yeah. They're pretty much the same person.
Gemshipping (Thief King Bakura x Ryou) - ?
Gentianshipping (Malik x Isis x Shizuka) - ?
Ghostshipping (Noa x Kotsuzaka x Amane) - Noa is a virtual ghost, Kotsuzaka looks like and is obsessed with ghosts, and Amane's dead, so she might as well BE a ghost.
Giftshipping (Honda x Jounouchi x Yuugi x Miho) - In the manga, Honda tried to bestow a gift on Miho, but he got caught by a wicked teacher. So Jounouchi and Yuugi both claimed they gave the present to Miho, too! Talk about a love polygon!
Gingershipping (Keith x Shizuka) - ?
Glasshipping (Thief King Bakura x Shaadi) - ?
Glittershipping (Anzu x Kisara) - ?
Gothshipping (Ryou x Kotsuzaka) - Some might consider Ryou's obsession with the occult and Kotsuzaka's obsession with death a bit Goth-like...

Gravityshipping (Thief King Bakura x Malik x Ryou) - ?
Greedshipping (Ushio x Yuugi) - Ushio is the greedy upperclassman hall monitor whose obsession with money got Yuugi beat up.

Gypshipping (Jounouchi x Ryuzaki) - ?
Halfshipping (Ryou x Miho) - ?
Hallucinoshipping (Pandora x Noa) - Pandora hallucinated that he had a chance to get his wife back; Noa was hallucinating that the VR world was real, or that he could get out and start a new life.
Hangshipping (Yami no Bakura x Keith x Seto) - ?
Hauntshipping (Yami no Malik x Kotsuzaka) - Yami no Malik haunts Isis and Rishid's memory, Malik's body, and Kotsuzaka haunts graveyards.
Hazelshipping (Ryou x Yuugi x Isis) - ?
Hazeshipping (Kajiki x Ryou) - ?
Headdressshipping (Priest Seto x Priest Mahaado) - These are the only two Guardians of the pharaoh that wear headdresses.
Heartshipping (Ryou x Yuugi) - ?
Hellshipping (Sakate x Takaido x Kotsuzaka) - ? (I think Sakate and Takaido are those guys that hung out with Kotsuzaka, and then Keith? Or vice-versa?)
Heroshipping (Magnum x Jounouchi) - Magnum is the guy who tried to duel Mai to get her to marry him, while Jounouchi is Mai's real hero-- or so he'd like to be.
Hideshipping (Pegasus x Yuugi) - ?
Hikarishipping (Malik x Ryou x Yuugi) - Even though "hikari" isn't an appropriate term for the original vessels/bodies of the most famous "dark" duelists, they are DO have that in common.
Holeshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Seto x Malik) - ?
Honorshipping (Kajiki x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - All of these guys have an immensely strong sense of honor. Kajiki for his father, Yami no Yuugi for his own, and Yuugi's for everyone else's.

Hostshipping (Ryou x Anzu) - Ryou and Anzu have both, at one time or another, served as Yami no Bakura [or some other dark's] host.
Hydrashipping (Kajiki x Ryuzaki) - A hydra is a mythical many-headed dragon of the sea. Kajiki is the ocean-duelist, while Ryuzaki is fond of dinosaurs and some dragons.
Idolshipping (Keith x Kotsuzaka) - ? (Maybe Kotsuzaka idolizes Keith, the former American champion duelist?)

Interfereshipping (Yami no Malik x Jounouchi x Mai) - Both of these guys just won't stop interfering in Mai's life-- or you could say that YnM is interfering in Jounouchi and Mai's relationship, or that Mai and Jounouchi keep interfering with YnM's plans.

Linkshipping (Priest Seto x Yuugi) - ?
Logicshipping (Priest Seto x Priestess Isis) - If Seto, Isis, and Shizuka are illogical, why are Seto and Isis logical? Maybe because these two are the smartest and most logical [however callous] of Atemu's guardians.

Pastelshipping (Malik x Roba) - ?

Vaseshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Mana) - I believe this had something to do with one of the anime episodes, when a mischievous Mana hid in a vase to escape her lessons from Atemu's guardian, Mahaado.
Veershipping (Keith x Isis) - ?
Velcroshipping (Thief King Bakura x Haga) - ? (WTF!? Velcro?)
Vengeanceshipping (Keith x Malik) - Both of these guys are after vengeance... and it doesn't take a creative mind to imagine how they'd go about it.
Vexshipping (Yami no Bakura x Anzu) - ? (I happen to like this pairing-- a LOT. It's probably third in my Top 5 favorite pairings)
Vigilshipping (Mai x Ryou) - ?
Villageshipping (Mei x Kyuu x Jounouchi) - When Jounouchi dueled Mei and Kyuu with Yami no Yuugi in the underground tag team duel, Jounouchi recalled a riddle about a man trying to get somewhere. But who to trust-- the brother from the village of liars, or the brother from the village of truth-tellers?
Virtualshipping (Gozaburo x Noa) - Gozaburo set up Noa, his biological son, in a virtual world, when Noa was in an accident that rendered his body incapable of sustaining a normal life.
Visionshipping (Mai x Isis) - ? (I don't know about Mai, but Isis had visions of the future...)
Vortexshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Priest Akunadin) - ?
Wallshipping (Rishid x Shizuka) - ? (They're both kind of wallflowers?)
Warnshipping (Yami no Bakura x Isis x Ryou) - ?
Watchshipping (Jounouchi x Priestess Isis) - ? (They both "watch" over Yami no Yuugi/Yuugi?)
Whispershipping (Seto x Possessed Jounouchi) - ?
Willowshipping (Arthur x Kisara) - ?
Windshipping (Ryou x Yuugi x Shizuka) - ?
Winshipping (Pegasus x Jounouchi x Yuugi) - The winner is j00? Not really. Yuugi defeated both Jounouchi and Pegasus.
Wintershipping (Mokuba x Amane) - ?
Wishshipping (Jounouchi x Yuugi) - Yuugi wished for true friends when he completed the Millennium Puzzle. He got Jounouchi [and Honda]. ^_^
Wrapshipping (Thief King Bakura x Jounouchi) - ?
Wreckshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Yuugi x Seto) - ?
Xenoshipping (Rishid x Isis) - ? (I think the Xeno has something to do with xenocentrism... or maybe xenophobia, and how the Ishtars and the other Tombkeepers seem to keep to themselves)
Yamishipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi) - This one's easy-- they're all "yami," or dark halves.
Yujoshipping (Possessed Jounouchi x Yuugi) - Technically it should be "yuujou," but close enough. It's the combination of Yuugi and Jounouchi's name, meaning "friendship." When Jounouchi was possessed, Yuugi's friendship got through to him, and broke Malik's control.
Yuumeishipping (Yami no Malik x Malik x Yami no Bakura x Ryou x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - ?
Total: 539

...That took much longer than expected. Ow.
Pass it along-- I'm officially working on the Definitive Yu-Gi-Oh 'Shippers list. This isn't a rehash of LFangor's list, it's an explanation as to why certain names were picked. If you want to theorize (or confirm) the reasoning behind a certain pairing's name, then let us know!
The way it'll work is that we'll use Japanese names-- but for characters whose names are confirmed for other languages or special pronunciations, we'll spell them that way. Confused?
Here's an example: Anzu, (Katsuya) Jounouchi, (Hiroto) Honda, (Ryuuji) Otogi, (Ryouta) Kajiki, Seto (Kaiba), Mokuba, Yuugi, Pharaoh Atemu, Varon, Malik, Isis, Amelda, Raphael, Tenma, Pegasus, Shaadi, Shaada, Mahaado, etc... Please note that some of these spellings need confirmation. If you want to provide it, please do!
Certain characters have "other forms." For example:
-Ryou Bakura (Holder/Vessel)
-Yami no Bakura (Spirit of the Millennium Ring)
-Thief King Bakura (Ancient Egypt)
-Yuugi Mutou
-Yami no Yuugi
-Pharaoh Atemu
-Seto Kaiba
-Priest Seto
Also, if you're not familiar with some of the Japanese names, here's a brief glossary of the
-Ryuuji Otogi (Duke Devlin)
-Ryouta Kajiki (Mako Tsunami)
-Katsuya Jounouchi (Joey Wheeler)
-Hiroto Honda (Tristan Taylor)
-Pegasus J. Crawford (Maximillion Pegasus)
-Shizuka Jounouchi (Serenity Wheeler)
-Roba (Espa Roba)
-Ghost Kotsuzaka (Bones)
-Pandora (Arkana)
-Catherine (Catherine - Pandora's [dead] girlfriend, from the early Battle City arc)
-Shogo (from the first Yu-Gi-Oh movie, a 30-minute short.)
-Yami no Kamen, Hikari no Kamen (Lumos and Umbra, from the early Battle City arc. Their names mean Dark Mask and Light Mask, respectively.)
NOTE: All names are listed in Western order (given name, surname) except in the cases of characters who are rarely/never referred to by their given names. Examples of the latter include Ryouta (Kajiki), Ryuuji (Otogi), Katsuya (Jounouchi), and Hiroto (Honda).
And now...
The Yu-Gi-Oh Shippers List
Abandonshipping (Gozaburo x Noa x Mokuba) - Gozaburo felt abandoned (presumably by his wife, and Noa), Noa felt abandoned by Gozaburo, and Mokuba felt abandoned by Seto

Angstshipping (Malik x Ryou) - These two have more angst between them than the rest of the characters put together. Seriously.
Annoyshipping (Seto x Jounouchi x Noa) - They can all be pretty annoying at times...?
Anruishipping (Shaadi x Yuugi) - ?
Antagoshipping (Yami no Bakura x Seto) - Yami no Bakura loves to antagonize Seto... this is especially obvious in the Memory arc.
Apocalypshipping (Yami no Malik x Seto x Isis) - The end of the world is coming-- says Yami no Malik and Isis, anyway. Seto doesn't like the world very much anyway...
Apparishipping (Roba x Kotsuzaka) - They're both rather ghostly at times... "appari" undoubtedly comes from "apparition."
Apprenticeshipping (Mahaado x Mana) - Mana is Mahaado's apprentice in black magic.
Aptshipping (Honda x Isis) -?
Aquaintanceshipping (Honda x Roba) - Honda and Roba really don't know each other too well, so they're acquaintances.
Archaishipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Priest Seto x Thief King Bakura) - They're all ancient characters, and another word for ancient might be "archaic."
Ardentshipping (Honda x Shizuka) - When someone is "ardently in love," they're very expressive. This is certainly true of Honda's affection for Shizuka.
Argenshipping (Pegasus x Ryou) - ?
Aromashipping (Kajiki x Honda x Jounouchi) - ?

Atticshipping (Ryou x Mana) - ?

Babbleshipping (Jounouchi x Kisara) - They both babble...?
Bakushipping (Thief King Bakura x Yami no Bakura x Ryou) - "Baku" being short for Bakura. All of them are Bakura! o_O
Balanceshipping (Shaadi x Isis x Ryou) - All three of these people are charged (or have charged themselves) with keeping the balance. Shaadi keeps the balance of the distribution of the Millennium Items, Isis keeps the balance of the past and future, and Ryou keeps the balance of himself with his darker half.
Balladshipping (Kajiki x Ryou x Shizuka) - ?
Bananashipping (Honda x Malik) - Honda got turned into a monkey in the Noa/Virtual World arc, while Malik seemed to have an odd affinity for the fruit. Who knows why?
Bandageshipping (Yami no Bakura x Ryou x Shizuka) - ?
Barbecueshipping (Honda x Kajiki) - Kajiki was BBQing fish when everyone met them. As for Honda... I have no idea.
Barrenshipping (Pegasus x Catherine) - ?
Barriershipping (Seto x Yami no Yuugi x Noa) - All of them have barriers preventing them from truly loving-- Seto's is self-imposed, Yami no Yuugi's is his lack of his own body, or memories, and Noa's is the fact that he's stuck in the virtual world.
Barshipping (Keith x Jounouchi x Honda x Yuugi) - ?
Batteryshipping (Jounouchi x Yami no Bakura x Ryou) - ?
Battleshipping (Seto x Jounouchi x Yuugi) - The three of these guys are always battling. ALWAYS.
Bayshipping (Priest Seto x Noa) - ?
Beachshipping (Jounouchi x Kajiki x Shizuka) - Kajiki is the one with the ocean obsession, but why Jounouchi and Shizuka? Maybe they like the beach?
Beehiveshipping (Mai x Rebecca) - ?
Behalfshipping (Roba x Ryou) - ?
Bickershipping (Malik x Jounouchi x Seto) - They all bicker. If not in general, with each other quite a bit, too.
Biteshipping (Seto x Possessed Jounouchi x Yuugi) - ?
Bittershipping (Pegasus x Honda) - Pegasus is pretty bitter about losing Cyndia, but why is Honda in there? What's he bitter about?
Bladeshipping (Pandora x Yuugi) - When Pandora dueled Yuugi, there were blades about to cut the loser's legs off...
Blameshipping (Possessed Jounouchi x Anzu) - Would Anzu really be able to blame Jounouchi if he did anything to her while he was possessed? Who knows?
Blankshipping (Jounouchi x Shogo) - Shogo drew up a blank when he saw Jounouchi. "What, you're a duelist?"
Blessedshipping (Priest Mahaado x Shizuka) - Just a wild guess, but Mahaado considered himself blessed to be in the service of Atemu, while Shizuka finds herself blessed to have a big brother like Jounouchi, and friends like Yuugi, Honda, Otogi, Mai, and Anzu.
Blindshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Yuugi) - You'd have to be blind not to see the oddity behind this one...?
Bloodshipping (Yami no Malik x Gozaburo) - Both of 'em are obsessed with blood (or vengeance, as it were).
Blueshipping (Seto x Kisara) - A close cousin to Azureshipping, this one deals with Seto's blue eyes, and Kisara's blue hair, eyes, and oh yeah-- her ka spirit, the [Blue Eyes] White Dragon
Bondangeshipping (Yami no Malik x Otogi) - Not sure about Otogi, but Yami no Malik sure has a thing for bondage. Remember his duel with Mai?

Bounceshipping (Ryou x Rebecca) - ?
Boundshipping (Thief King Bakura x Yuugi) - ?
Boxshipping (Mokuba x Anzu) - When Anzu saved Mokuba from the Rare Hunters, they got stuck in a warehouse full of boxes. Anzu used them to prop Mokuba up so he could escape, but she fell and got turned into an enemy.
Breathshipping (Shaadi x Cyndia) - Are these two even breathing anymore? We know Cyndia probably isn't, but...
Bribeshipping (Mai x Ryuzaki) - Mai bribed Ryuzaki to duel Jounouchi at Duelist Kingdom. Ryuzaki accepted the bait.
Bronzeshipping (Yami no Malik x Malik) - ?
Bruiseshipping (Honda x Jounouchi x Ryuzaki) - ?
Brutalshipping (Keith x Ryuzaki) - ?
Buddyshipping (Honda x Jounouchi) - This one should be obvious... these two are best buddies. [Meaning, NOTHING more, right? Why call it BUDDYshipping?]
Burntshipping (Keith x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - Keith -in the anime- set a fire in a warehouse after Yuugi's puzzle was broken. Yuugi nearly got burnt to a crisp assembling the puzzle again, before Jounouchi saved him.
Butterflyshipping (Ryou x Mai x Anzu) - ?
Cageshipping (Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi x Malik) - ?
Cakeshipping (Cyndia x Mokuba) - Not that we know much about Cyndia, but Mokuba sure loves cake, right? He is a kid!
Candleshipping (Yami no Bakura x Seto x Ryou) - ?
Cardshipping (Sugoroku x Yuugi) - Sugoroku is the Kame Game Store's card expert, and Yuugi, his grandson is his protogé. There are few cards Yuugi doesn't know about, or have.
Careshipping (Honda x Shizuka x Yuugi) - Honda cares a great deal about his friends, especially Jounouchi and Shizuka, Shizuka cares deeply for Jounouchi, Mai, and Anzu, and Yuugi cares for everyone probably a bit more than is healthy.
Carmenshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Seto) - ?
Casteshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Thief King Bakura) - A caste is sort of like a class or ranking. Pharaoh Atemu's at the top, while Bakura is pretty much at the bottom. King or no, he's still a thief, forced to steal to survive. His "royal status" is merely self-proclaimed.
Castleshipping (Priest Seto x Jounouchi x Seto) - ?
Cavaliershipping (Yami no Yuugi x Rebecca) - ?
Ceoshipping (Pegasus x Seto x Otogi) - This one's easy. They're all CEOs!
Chanceshipping (Seto x Otogi x Yuugi) - Despite Kaiba not believing in the Heart of the Cards, chance has saved him on more than one occasion. Otogi favors dice, which are always a chancey way to bet on things, and Yuugi, well... Heart of the Cards, anyone?
Changeshipping (Otogi x Malik) - Both Otogi and Malik are out to change things that happened in the past-- Otogi to change the people's view of Yuugi after he defeated Pegasus, and Malik to change people's view of the Pharaoh and his "need" to be brought into power/protected once more.
Chaosshipping (Priest Seto x Thief King Bakura x Yami no Bakura x Seto) - As if a vessel and his dark half aren't enough, mix two antagonists in the mix and you have CHAOS!
Charmshipping (Shizuka x Mana) - Both of these ladies are quite CHARMING, and manage to CHARM others quite well-- though quite accidentally, it seems.
Chaseshipping (Honda x Otogi) - Honda and Otogi both spend almost all their chasing Shizuka-- not like they'd ever have time for one another, unless they crashed into each other mid-chase.
Cheatshipping (Jounouchi x Roba) - During Jounouchi's duel with Roba, Roba cheated by having his little brothers spy on Jounouchi's hand.
Cheershipping (Otogi x Shizuka) - Otogi and Shizuka are both cheerleaders in their own right, but only Otogi actually has his own cheerleading team.
Cherryshipping (Jounouchi x Amane) - ? (What??? Amane's dead! Jounouchi doesn't even know who she is!)
Chibishipping (Yuugi x Mokuba) - Yuugi and Mokuba are both a bit short. One of the more derogatory Japanese words to describe such "vertically challenged" people is 'chibi.'
Chimeshipping (Thief King Bakura x Malik x Mai) - ?
Chuteshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Kisara) - ? (Like chutes and ladders?)
Circleshipping (Honda x Jounouchi x Miho) - Honda professed a great romantic interest in Miho in the first series, and Jounouchi watches
Citronshipping (Thief King Bakura x Malik) - ? (All I know is that citron is a kind of orange color...)
Clashshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Yuugi) - These two might be part of some epic battle called the "Clash of the Titans." Their goals certainly clash.
Clearshipping (Seto x Yuugi x Mokuba) - To them, everything they're after or want is as plain and clear as day. Right...?
Cliffshipping (Jounouchi's otousan x Jounouchi) - Jounouchi would sooner throw himself off a cliff than date his own father.
Clingshipping (Yuugi x Anzu x Mokuba) - Yuugi clings to Anzu, Anzu sort of clings to Yuugi, Mokuba clings to the both of them in a strange way... Someone get these people some dryer sheets!
Cloudshipping (Noa x Shizuka) - ?
Clovershipping (Noa x Kisara) - ?
Coastershipping (Ryuzaki x Roba) - ?
Cobaltshipping (Priest Seto x Seto x Kisara) - Yet anothe variation of Azureshipping and Blueshipping, this one is a deeper blue-- probably because Seto Kaiba is thrown in the mix.
Coerceshipping (Strings x Kotsuzaka) - Strings was a mime used as a puppet by Marik. But what about Kotsuzaka?
Coinshipping (Anzu x Miho) - ?
Commitshipping (Priest Seto x Priestess Isis x Seto x Isis) - They're all very committed to their beliefs, faiths, and goals.
Conceitshipping (Yami no Bakura x Mai) - Yami no Bakura and Mai are pretty conceited, if you think about it.
Conditionshipping (Gozaburo x Mokuba) - ?
Conquestshipping (Varon x Mai) - Who knows why this one is Conquestshipping, but here's a guess: conquest is a fancy word for a determined search for something, or the desperate need to reach a particular goal. Mai wants to be a better duelist, not one-upped by guys like Yuugi and Jounouchi, while Varon, well...
Conscriptshipping (Gozaburo x Seto x Mokuba) - ?
Conspireshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Malik x Ryou) - All of these guys (except Ryou, really) conspired together to bring about some not-so-pleasant endings for Yuugi and Co.
Controlshipping (Malik x Noa) - This one's easy-- Malik and Noa are both notorious for controlling others-- Malik for Jounouchi and Anzu, particularly, and Noa for controlling Mokuba.
Copeshipping (Keith x Anzu x Shizuka) - ?
Copyshipping (Jounouchi x Mai x Anzu) - ?
Corruptshipping (Thief King Bakura x Priest Seto) - Both of these hapless guys got corrupted by the dark evil that is Zork Necrophidius.
Counselshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Otogi x Isis) - ?
Covershipping (Keith x Pandora) - ?
Creamshipping (Thief King Bakura x Yami no Bakura x Ryou x Jounouchi) - ? (I'm not sure I WANT to know)
Creepshipping (Haga x Kotsuzaka) - Well, both of these guys what with their obsessions --bugs and death, respectively-- are a bit creepy.
Crestshipping (Seto x Isis x Shaadi) - ?
Crosshipping (Yami no Malik x Yuugi) - ?
Crownshipping (Pegasus x Anzu) - ?
Crushshipping (Honda x Otogi x Shizuka) - Honda and Otogi both have horrible crushes on Shizuka.
Crypticshipping (Shaadi x Rishid) - These two guys couldn't get any more cryptic if they lived in a crypt-- oh wait, they do.
Crystalshipping (Anzu x Mana) - ?
Cunishipping (Mai x Anzu x Shizuka) - ? I'm afraid I might know what the "cuni" comes from, and I don't think it's G-rated.
Curveshipping (Rishid x Malik x Jounouchi) - ?
Danceshipping (Mai x Anzu) - Anzu's the notoriously dedicated dancer, but Mai's got moves of her own-- no doubt about that.
Dangershipping (Yami no Malik x Seto) - Both of these guys are pretty dangerous-- depending on who you are.
Darkshipping (Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi) - Easy: both of these guys are the first "dark" halves we encounter in the series.
Dashshipping (Miho x Shizuka) - ?
Dealshipping (Yami no Bakura x Ryou x Amane) - ? (My theory: Yami no Bakura makes Ryou a deal to bring back Amane from the dead...)
Deathshipping (Yami no Malik x Ryou) - Both of these guys are just a bit obsessed with death, don't you think? More accurately, the death of someone close to them. Sort of.
Defershipping (Shaadi x Malik) - ?
Deignshipping (Shaadi x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - ?
Deishipping (Pegasus x Noa) - ?
Delusionshipping (Pandora x Catherine) - ? (These guys are canon, though! What's the delusion? Well, Pandora was a bit DELUSIONAL after Catherine died...)
Demiseshipping (Keith x Isis x Malik) - ?
Denyshipping (Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi x Anzu) - ?
Depthshipping (Gozaburo x Pegasus) - ?
Devotionshipping (Jounouchi x Anzu) - Both of these are Yuugi's truest and most devoted friends. They're more dedicated to his cause than anyone else.
Diamondshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Mai) - ?
Diceshipping (Yami no Bakura x Otogi)
Digshipping (Arthur x Ryou) - Arthur (aka Professor Hopkins) is an archaelogist, while Ryou's father was, as well. They're both used to digging in the dirt for clues.
Distrustshipping (Seto x Shaadi) - Seto wouldn't trust Shaadi as far as he could throw him. And that's assuming Shaadi has a corporeal form to THROW.
Divulgeshipping (Yami no Malik x Thief King Bakura x Pharaoh Atemu) - ?
Domashipping (Raphael x Amelda x Varon) - Still not sure on if Doma is really the right name for this group, but assuming it is, these guys are all in it. The only one missing is their leader, Dartz.
Doodleshipping (Rebecca x Amane) - ?
Doomshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Mokuba) - ? (What does Mokuba have to do with it?)
Doubtshipping (Seto x Malik x Ryou) - ?
Downshipping (Keith x Cyndia) - ?
Dragonshipping (Jounouchi x Yami no Yuugi) - Of all people to have Dragonshipping, why these two? I'd think it'd be more appropriate for Seto x Jounouchi or Jounouchi x Ryuzaki, but... anyhow, Jounouchi is famous because of his Red Eyes Black Dragon, while Yami no Yuugi's got his 3 God Dragons. Both of them are also holders of Legendary Dragons (Helmos and Timaeus, respectively)
Dramashipping (Jounouchi x Kajiki) - This might have something to do with how overdramatic both guys can be...
Dreamshipping (Jounouchi x Yuugi x Mai) - In Yuugi and Jounouchi's DREAMS would they get to have any kind of a three-way with Mai.
Dripshipping (Kajiki x Anzu) - "A drip is a drop, a drop is full of water, water is nature, nature is beautiful, thanks for the compliment."
Driveshipping (Malik x Mai) - ?
Droidshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Strings) - When Strings fought Yami no Yuugi, he was pretty much a droid. He wasn't thinking for himself, really.
Dulcetshipping (Mai x Isis x Shizuka) - ?
Dungeonshipping (Pegasus x Otogi) - ? (I know Pegasus has a fondness for dungeons, but Otogi?)
Dustshipping (Yami no Malik x Catherine) - ?
Dynamicshipping (Kajiki x Rebecca) - ?
Ecoshipping (Kajiki x Haga) - This one's easy-- Kajiki is all about the oceans, while Haga's all about bugs. They're both very interested in some part of the ecosystem, don't you think?
Egoshipping (Keith x Seto x Mai) - As if we needed the egotistical, arrogant, conceited people to get involved in more orgies...
Eliteshipping (Keith x Seto) - ?
Enigmashipping (Priest Shaada x Shaadi) - An enigma is a mystery wrapped in a decade-old sandwich. So are Shaada and Shaadi. Enigmas, I mean, not sandwiches.
Envyshipping (Anzu x Rebecca) - Anzu and Rebecca both envy each other for the attention one or the other gets from Yuugi or Yami no Yuugi.
Ettushipping (Seto x Jounouchi x Mai) - ? (Does this have anything to do with the quote from Cesar-- "Et tu, Brutus?"
Euroshipping (Seto x Ryou) - Well, we all know Seto's a globe-trotter, and in the dub, Ryou's a transfer student from London. But he's pure Japanese in the original version, so this doesn't make much sense.
Evilshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Rebecca) - ? (I can understand YnM and YnB, but how is Rebecca evil?)
Executeshipping (Yami no Malik x Shaadi) - Both of these guys execute people who don't do as they please. YnM used this tactic in every one of his duels, and Shaadi did it to those who displeased him (in the first series/arc of the manga).
Exodushipping (Jounouchi x Yuugi x Haga) - Not sure why it's Exodus and not Exodia, but if it's got anything to do with the card set, Haga threw out Yuugi's Exodia cards, and Jounouchi dived into the ocean to get them back. Plus they all made the "exodus" to Duelist Kingdom, only to get beat at one time or another.
Exoticshipping (Yami no Bakura x Isis) - If you consider Egypt exotic, then sure-- these two are exotic.
Eyeshipping (Yami no Bakura x Pegasus) - Yami no Bakura stole Pegasus' Millennium Eye. 'Nuff said. (Personally, I think this would work better with Akunadin x Pegasus 'shipping, but how the hell would that come about? No, I don't want to know.
Fadeshipping (Yami no Malik x Jounouchi) - Yami no Malik faded from existence after his defeat, and Jounouchi faded last from Mai's mind while she was trapped in the Dark Game.
Fakeshipping (Yami no Malik x Jounouchi x Malik) - ?
Fallenshipping (Pandora x Malik) - Both of these guys have fallen from grace, for bad, but purely understandable (losing his wife, losing his father) reasons.
Falseshipping (Strings x Catherine) - ?
Faltershipping (Kotsuzaka x Rebecca) - ?
Fateshipping (Raphael x Yami no Yuugi) - Raphael is the one who believes strongest in fate-- as does Yami no Yuugi, but they're on polar opposite sides as to whose Fate is better.
Faultshipping (Seto x Anzu x Mokuba) - I should know this one-- Mamono and I came up with it, and now it's official! YAY! I believe our theory was that Seto would be at fault for something, causing Anzu to gravitate toward him, but Mokuba to drift away. Where would Mokuba drift to? Anzu, of course? Plus can't you just see him crushing on her? (Shameless plug: I have a fic of this coming out soon. Actually it starts out as Boxshipping, turned into Faultshipping, and then... who knows?)
Fawnshipping (Pegasus x Haga) - ?
Fearshipping (Yami no Malik x Isis) - Yami no Malik has something to fear from his "vessel's" sister-- she's the one that knows how to get rid of him
Feathershipping (Yami no Yuugi x Jounouchi x Yuugi) - ?
Feignshipping (Yami no Malik x Pegasus x Otogi) - Just a theory, but all of these guys have feigned innocence at one time or another, when they were really involved in less-than-nice deeds.
Femmeshipping (Mai x Isis x Anzu) - Grrl power is at its peak with these three power girls. Watch out-- it's the femme fatale!
Fetishipping (Yami no Malik x Malik x Yami no Bakura) - All of these baddies have some bad fetishes-- Yami no Malik with revenge and taking over the world, Malik with the same, and Yami no Bakura with-- hey! Vengeance and thievery.
Figureshipping (Isis x Mai x Anzu x Shizuka) - Just because we had to get a bit of a legal conflict in here, let's toss Shizuka into the Femmeshipping mix and get some HOT FIGURES groovin' it on together!
Fillershipping (Noa x Rebecca) - Both of these characters appeared solely in the anime series, during "filler" arcs that were never in the manga.
Flareshipping (Seto x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - ?
Flickshipping (Yami no Kamen x Hikari no Kamen x Yami no Yuugi x Seto) - ? (These four guys were all involved in a tag team duel together, but why 'flick?')
Flippantshipping (Otogi x Mai) - Another theory-- these two are pretty flippant about affection, for the most part. Neither of them seem to be very serious about romance, even when they're obviously interested in someone.
Flipshipping (Seto x Noa x Yuugi) - ?
Floatshipping (Thief King Bakura x Priestess Isis) - ?
Flowshipping (Priestess Isis x Kisara) - ?
Flurryshipping (Ryou x Yuugi x Mokuba) - ?
Fogshipping (Seto x Kajiki) - ?
Fontshipping (Malik x Kajiki) - ? (Font? As in the thing you type with?)
Foreshipping (Isis x Yuugi) - ?
Forlornshipping (Pegasus x Pandora) - Both of these guys are pretty forlorn about losing their lady loves.
Fossilshipping (Ryuzaki x Kotsuzaka) - Ryuzaki's obsessed with dinosaur fossils; Kotsuzaka happens to like HUMAN fossils.
Fractureshipping (Thief King Bakura x Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Malik x Ryou) - ? (The hell!? What an orgy.)
Fragileshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Ryou) - Ryou's the fragile one in this relationship, that's for sure.
Frazzleshipping (Jounouchi x Rebecca) - ?
Furyshipping (Yami no Malik x Jounouchi x Seto x Yami no Yuugi) - All of these guys have displayed some awesome fury, most especially in their duels.
Gainshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Kajiki) - ?
Gambleshipping (Otogi x Jounouchi x Isis) - Otogi gambles with dice, Jounouchi gambles with his Chance-themed deck, and Isis gambles based on her "visions" of the future.
Gameshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Otogi) - Both of these guys happen to likes games-- maybe a bit too much.
Geminishipping (Thief King Bakura x Yami no Bakura) - Twins? Well yeah. They're pretty much the same person.

Tendershipping (Yami no Bakura x Ryou) - ? (This makes NO friggin' sense at all. While I don't believe YnM would abuse his own host, I doubt he'd be mooshy about/around him, either.)
Thiefshipping (Yami no Bakura x Malik) - Two thieves working together for world domination. Fun!
Thornshipping (Yami no Malik x Anzu) - ? (Thorn in her side, maybe?)
Threadshipping (Yami no Malik x Malik x Strings x Yami no Yuugi) - ?
Tieshipping (Honda x Miho) - Miho is known to tie her hair with a yellow ribbon. In the first few arcs of the manga, and in the first series, Honda has a serious crush on her.
Tiltshipping (Keith x Jounouchi x Yuugi) - ?
Timeshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Seto) - There's just the teeny problem of a couple of millenia separating these two... who would be rivals, most likely.
Timidshipping (Yuugi x Shizuka) - Both rather timid characters, don't you think? At least, until later in the series...
Tipshipping (Sugoroku x Jounouchi x Yuugi) - Sugoroku gave Yuugi and Jounouchi tips on dueling in the start of the series.
Toonshipping (Pegasus x Seto) - Pegasus loves to annoy Seto with "toon" versions of popular cards, especially those Seto is known to use.
Tornshipping (Yami no Bakura x Ryou x Malik) - ?
Toughshipping (Keith x Jounouchi) - Two tough guys, ready to duke it out at a moment's notice.
Tourneyshipping (Yami no Yuugi x Haga) - Both of these guys are tourney champions. But what about Ryuzaki?
Towershipping (Yami no Malik x Seto x Jounouchi) - The three finalists that made it to the top of Alcatraz, or Kaiba's Duel Tower.
Trackshipping (Yami no Bakura x Shaadi) - ?
Tradeshipping (Sugoroku x Seto) - Seto would have done anything to trade all his worldly cards for Sugoroku's fourth Blue Eyes White Dragon.
Tragicshiping (Keith x Pegasus x Cyndia) - These characters all had pretty tragic endings, don't you think?
Trapshipping (Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi x Ryou x Yuugi) - ?
Trenchshipping (Honda x Haga) - ?
Trendshipping (Miho x Anzu x Shizuka) - All of these girls are pretty trendy, right? If not, Miho and Anzu certainly are, and they can drag Shizuka along just because.
Tributeshipping (Priest Mahaado x Kisara) - Both of these people tributed [or sacrificed] their lives for the people they cared the most for-- Atemu and Seto, respectively.
Trustshipping (Seto x Isis) - Seto doesn't trust Isis as far as he could throw her off his blimp.
Tuftshipping (Ryuzaki x Mokuba) - ?
Turbulenceshipping (Seto x Yami no Yuugi x Ryou) - ? (Passengers, please buckle your seatbelts and prepare for a bumpy ride!)
Twistedshipping (Shaadi x Pegasus) - It doesn't get anymore twisted than hooking up with the guy that jammed a golden ball into your eye socket.
Unlockshipping (Shaadi x Yami no Yuugi) - Shaadi helped unlock the first secrets of Yami no Yuugi's mind... those of the Pharaoh.
Vanishshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Anzu) - Though Anzu was really in love with Yami no Yuugi, she loved him as a Pharaoh as well, and tried to run after him as he vanished into the Afterlife.
Vaseshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Mana) - I believe this had something to do with one of the anime episodes, when a mischievous Mana hid in a vase to escape her lessons from Atemu's guardian, Mahaado.
Veershipping (Keith x Isis) - ?
Velcroshipping (Thief King Bakura x Haga) - ? (WTF!? Velcro?)
Vengeanceshipping (Keith x Malik) - Both of these guys are after vengeance... and it doesn't take a creative mind to imagine how they'd go about it.
Vexshipping (Yami no Bakura x Anzu) - ? (I happen to like this pairing-- a LOT. It's probably third in my Top 5 favorite pairings)
Vigilshipping (Mai x Ryou) - ?
Villageshipping (Mei x Kyuu x Jounouchi) - When Jounouchi dueled Mei and Kyuu with Yami no Yuugi in the underground tag team duel, Jounouchi recalled a riddle about a man trying to get somewhere. But who to trust-- the brother from the village of liars, or the brother from the village of truth-tellers?
Virtualshipping (Gozaburo x Noa) - Gozaburo set up Noa, his biological son, in a virtual world, when Noa was in an accident that rendered his body incapable of sustaining a normal life.
Visionshipping (Mai x Isis) - ? (I don't know about Mai, but Isis had visions of the future...)
Vortexshipping (Pharaoh Atemu x Priest Akunadin) - ?
Wallshipping (Rishid x Shizuka) - ? (They're both kind of wallflowers?)
Warnshipping (Yami no Bakura x Isis x Ryou) - ?
Watchshipping (Jounouchi x Priestess Isis) - ? (They both "watch" over Yami no Yuugi/Yuugi?)
Whispershipping (Seto x Possessed Jounouchi) - ?
Willowshipping (Arthur x Kisara) - ?
Windshipping (Ryou x Yuugi x Shizuka) - ?
Winshipping (Pegasus x Jounouchi x Yuugi) - The winner is j00? Not really. Yuugi defeated both Jounouchi and Pegasus.
Wintershipping (Mokuba x Amane) - ?
Wishshipping (Jounouchi x Yuugi) - Yuugi wished for true friends when he completed the Millennium Puzzle. He got Jounouchi [and Honda]. ^_^
Wrapshipping (Thief King Bakura x Jounouchi) - ?
Wreckshipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Yuugi x Seto) - ?
Xenoshipping (Rishid x Isis) - ? (I think the Xeno has something to do with xenocentrism... or maybe xenophobia, and how the Ishtars and the other Tombkeepers seem to keep to themselves)
Yamishipping (Yami no Malik x Yami no Bakura x Yami no Yuugi) - This one's easy-- they're all "yami," or dark halves.
Yujoshipping (Possessed Jounouchi x Yuugi) - Technically it should be "yuujou," but close enough. It's the combination of Yuugi and Jounouchi's name, meaning "friendship." When Jounouchi was possessed, Yuugi's friendship got through to him, and broke Malik's control.
Yuumeishipping (Yami no Malik x Malik x Yami no Bakura x Ryou x Yami no Yuugi x Yuugi) - ?
