name your snakes?

See signature. I always have a name for my animals. Kinda makes them a bit more than "just another pet".

Yep, my snakes name is Leon. =)

I name my snakes also. At first the names where just names but as our collection grew I began to catagorize the snakes with their names. For example all of our pastels names start with D like Daphne, Daisy, Delta, Dahli, Donna and Debbie. All of our male spiders names start with W like Wilbur and Walter. Our het Albinos and albinos start with A and so on.

So while we do not use alphanumeric codes to catagorize our snakes we use names for the same purpose. Plus it just feels more personal to me than using numbers to identify them.

i was thinking of a name and my gf said to name my snake princess sophia lol and i said no i cnt name the snake that, thats not a snake name so i told her ill tell everyone the name when i think of it and tell them a.k.a. princess sophia. i havent thought of a name and i found out my bp is a girl so it kinda stuck :P a.k.a. princesssophia lol

Yes, mine are named...

I only have 1 or 2 here and there that have nicknames, I use identification numbers.

I tried to name mine at first, but ended up just calling them "female ATB" or "that carpet I got at the show" etc lol

Yeah I name mine, Some even have nicknames beyond there regular names. My Spider I also call "little guy" cause he's a baby. *shrugs*

If I have an animal, it gets named. Part for accurate reference when telling people about them/feeding/playing and part just because if I kept an animal, reptilian or mammalian or whatever, I'd feel weird if I didn't. Just how I was brought up I suppose.

I do, I have a few that need names including a few geckos too, and yes my fish have names. I have over 50snakes so names can be a challenge. A few favs are:
F hog Island boa - Twilight
F pastel boa - Eclipse
F gueatamalan boa - Infinity
F normal boa - Aurora
M jcp - Stang
F pastel bp - Isis

M het pied bp - Savage
M motley stripe corn - Howie
M snow corn - Lex
F miami corn - Magic
M albino jungle corn - Tarzan
M black mexican King - Angelus
F crested Gecko - Splat
M bearded dragon - Nitro
