    I don't give any of my snakes names by choice. My GF either makes me pick something or names them for me lol.


    I only named my very first snake (fluffy)

    I call all my snakes by their morph, or by their physical attributes. "Bee" or "Lith Blaze" or "Huge normal girl" or "Banded normal girl" etc.
    My bud calls them all by their ID tags which is simply numbers and letters.

    I actually talk to mine like I do all my other pets. I call her by her name, even know she can't hear me, lol. We've even had full blown conversations (of course one sided)

    I don't name them because honestly I look at them and see morphs and not really pets. I don't hold them much, I just take pride in the fact that they are content in their tubs. But if I am telling my mom something about an individual snake I call them all sorts of things cause she doesn't quite remember all the morphs and what they look like. Things like: the big one, the oldest one, the little girl, little retard(Idk why, I just started calling him that), and maybe just their colors. When I am showing my big girl to people I call her fatty.

    If I am alone trying to clean I usually call all of them dummies cause they get in the way. Haha! Obviously, I am a very loving snake-keeper!

    All of mine have names, and I use their names. Almost all have pet names or nicknames. Although the phrase pet names for a pet is kind of weird. Like my biggest female Akashi, I also call her big momma, or my sweet girl. One of my pet rats, her name is Luna, but I always call her Luna Bear. No idea why, it just came out and it fit so she's Luna Bear. My het pied Toki, I always call her Toki Bear. My saimese mix cat is Jade, but I call him *****foot. And so on......

    Re: Nme or no name?
    I name each and every one of my snakes. In fact, its the very first thing i do the moment i get a new snake. It helps me identify with each snake as an idivudual. Together me n my husband have 26 snakes. I name mine based on many factors including temperament, color, size, where it came from, etc, whereas he likes to name all his after anime characters...:rolleyes:

    I call them by their names. None snakers usually don't get what you mean by saying their genes, unless you go into deep conversation of genetics and refresh them in some high school science.

    I name all mine and refer to them by name unless I'm talking to someone who doesn't know who's who or on the forum, then I'll call them by gender and morph. I take forever to name most though.

    A lot of mine also have nicknames or shortened versions of their names. And a lot of times females get addressed when I'm messing with them as "mommas," males as "lil guy," or "dude."
