Do you name your BPs?

Pretty much everything I own is named. My snakes, fish, cats, TV, Car, game systems, my christmas tree has a name...the bulbs don't though.

Yep, we name all our animals, too. Sometimes I forget or mix the rats up, though.

Yep! All of the animals are named, with the exception of some tarantulas that I haven't had for awhile or they are | | this big. The oranda goldfish doesn't have a name yet, and the 3 others in the tank aren't named. I need to name around 4-5 snakes though, and it's difficult!

Alpine, Skittle, Lucy, Cleopatra, Raggidy Anne(don't ask, my girlfriend named her)


I have 2 more coming in, no names yet

Every last one

Yep we name ours. As the collection gets bigger it is more challenging though. We've moved toward a type of name classification system. For example, all the albinos and het albinos are named after members of my husbands family, my het clowns are named Bozo and Clarabell, my pieds are mythology names (Hera, Aphrodite, etc.), normals are herbs and spices (parsley, sage, rosemary, etc), etc.


It sure does help when I'm trying to remember what a normal looking ball python really is! :carrot:

absolutely. sometimes it takes a while but they all get names. i haven't named my poss. het pied hatchlings yet or a few of my other newer snakes but sooner or later they will all get names. the geckos mostly have names too--i name all but the ones i plan to sell. breeder rats get names and some of the fish have names too. :)

Heck I'm so into naming the critters I have lists of names not yet used that I've seen, liked and stored away for future purchases LOL. The naming system for the snakes as Mike said is all irish or scots gaelic names. They are fun, some of them are hard as heck to pronounce and even harder to spell but each is picked based on something unique about the snake or its situation. The breeder rats get named based on their personalities, colors or coat patterns.

I name all mine as well. 04-nf-01, 04-nf-02, 04-nf-03, ect ect. They even get their own labels.

lol. Sorry couldn't resist

All of my pets have names except the fish. All of the names are human names also, so if anyone overhears me talking to any of them, they think there is another human in the room..lol
