How do you choose names for your Ball pythons?

My wife gets to pick the names now, kind of. Her hobby is shopping, mine is ball pythons. To integrate the two, they get named based on designers and what not. Thats why we have Gucci, Kors, Express, Max, Azaria(female version of Azria, BCBG Max Azria being covered on that one), Louis V. My daughter, who is about to be 3, chose Ribbit and Itsy Bitsy. I named my het lav albino Prince(Purple Rain), my poss het lavender Question. My mom was in town and named my Albino Albert. I bought a 100% Het Pied male and a 50%Het Pied female locally for a very low price, so I named them Hopes and Dreams. And then there's my OG, who I missexed as female and named her Stephanie after my wife because she/he was being stubborn. When he was resexed as a male, the name changed to Stefan E. And thats the story of all the names. =]

My bee, Hugo... was my first snake, and i wanted him to have a cute name, but not something so out there that i'd get the :weirdface: from friends...

Someone on this forum (i think) has a snake named Boss... and I thought, what an odd name-- and then i thought, maybe its like...Hugo Boss... and then I kinda got caught up on Hugo (no he is not named after the Hugo Boss brand)

Hugo means bright heart or bright mind and spirit... and since he's a bright little bee, i think it works!

Evie, my female lesser, was named after Natalie Portman's character in V for Vendetta... I love words, and that movie was the best alliteration of V i've ever experienced. Plus she has the V over her eyes.

All of my leopard geckos (all 20) are also named, and they are all named in relation to their appearances... ie. my snows are Domino, Magpie, Poppyseed etc., my Tangerine Tornados are Scorch, Inferno and Calypso...

My BCI is named Atlas because of the myth about Atlas being a titan who held up the world, and a boa is going to be the biggest snake I own... and his saddles look like old world maps... AND I've been wanting a boa since I first held a baby boa about a decade ago-- and I finally have one... AtlasT :P

I love all mine to death but none of them have names...

My corns are mostly named based on their color. My balls are named haphazardly!

Corns: Indigo Montoya, Cayenne, Pepper, Tabasco, El Dorado, Tupelo Honey, Greta, Grendel, Pink, Big Red and then Gustav and Hanna after hurricanes during their hatch year.

Balls: Konjou, Pixie and Ozzy

Hey All,
New to the forum. I have two BPs, Garcia and Marquez, named after my favorite author. If a third makes it into the house, he'll be named Gabriel.

the normal is Marquez and the pastel is Garcia.

cool color names of my oil paints, music artist/band names, parts of Africa, visual hints sometimes complete randomness lol. I only started naming them when i joined iherp tho for their records, but now i like naming them.

Tiff I am just curious, do you have a picture of your room? It must be overrun with reptiles!
