Ok, so I want to write some erotic science fiction about a race of aliens that make sex toys for other aliens. I want to know what you would call these special sex toys. So far, the best I can come up with is "Hyperdildos of Benwa 9". Any suggestions?

I suggest that real writers don't ask for "suggestions".
I suggest that you are mean.

Gentle Giant Blobs sounds perfect or GGB
Is that how you picture me?

If by "mean" you mean "thrifty" then, yes, yes I am.
By "mean", I mean that I'd like to have mean sex with you.

Bah. And furthermore, humbug.
Real Science Fiction writers ask for advice all the time. To make sure they get the science or engineering right, to develop a consistent language or grammar for aliens, etc. Some have proofreaders who help them keep the continuity straight in their series. And they freely acknowledge these people in the intro to the books.
BAEN.com has a forum for fans and writers to interact. They have suggested sub-plots and other story ideas. As well as helped out with the science and engineering.
There is NO problem with an author asking for suggestions.

Hyperdildos FROM Benwa 9?
Are you trying to name the aliens or the toys?
The toys, short names being better:
Orgasmotron
SexStims
DilDroids
PleasureProds
Wankoids
SoloSex (this could be the brand name, with other names for particular toys)
The Jackoff Blastoff
It's a start.
hobbit.

No they don't. They do research all the time. That's not the same thing.
Blobdude -- just write your fucking story. Asking people for "advice" is just a stalling tactic. Clear your mind. Put your cell phone in another room. And fucking write.

Sure it is.
Tom Lehrer put it this way:
Plagiarize!
Let no one else's work evade your eyes.
Remember why the Good Lord made your eyes.
So don't shade your eyes.
But plagiarize!
Plagiarize!!
Plagiarize!!!
(Only be sure always to call it, please, research)
"Jeremy was walking across the verdant plain when he encountered a mysterious black object lying prostrate in the nearby dale. When he picked it up, he began to notice how right it felt intradigitally. To his astonishment, it began to grow in size at a remarkable rate as it reacted to his body temperature. The small object had begun to take the form of a veiny, black penis! It looked like his, only much larger and blacker. What Jeremy didn't know was that he was holding a Dildroid from the Sex Toy factories of Benwa 9 that had crash landed on earth. What he did know was where he would be putting it."

If you're not going to be serious then I'm taking your sister home and fucking her with a Venudian Dondotube.

It's a knock off. Wrote it as a gag. But enjoy.
