    The only names we will call it is 'Nake or 'Nake 'Nake, but that's about it, lol.

    Most have names, some don't. Sometimes one will have a certain look or do something that is memorable and I'll give them a name like 'Sanchez' or 'Lonesome George', others I name after the person I got them from like 'Mike' or 'Luke' or 'Sean1', 'Sean2', 'Sean3', 'Sean4', 'Sean5' (well, you get the picture...)

    No, they don't come when I call them, but it's just easier for me to refer to them by a name then by a description.

    Most of ours have names. I don't even want to think of the headache I would have trying to keep them all straight if they were all "2006 Normal Female 1" and "2008 Enchi Male 2" and what not. The named ones seem to stand apart more in my head.

    ya for kids it could be fun, but I cant call a snake by its name and hes like oh hey im coming hold on. Like a dog. If I had several I might just for reference when talking to other people.

    I don't name my snakes. I use a numeric system to keep track of them. Same as already mentioned above.
