Shipping is a common term in fan fiction and comes from the word "relationship". The majority of fanfiction deals with the various character pairings, which already is a reason to pay a little attention to it! But in addition to this, 'Isaac says Booga' of the Triad Sanctuary had his fun in thinking up names on how to call the different pairings during the early days of Golden Sun.
Over time his list got quite popular within the community, probably much to his own surprise!
And hereby I present you an adaption of Isaac Says Booga's (in)famous Shipping List! The names come about rather easily: take "Mudshipping" for example, because earth (Isaac) and water (Mia) thrown together result in mud. Or Valeshipping, as both Isaac and Jenna hail from Vale. I most cases I'll leave it to your fantasy to find out the origins of the various names! =D
