Naming Your New Additions....What's Your Method?

I just go with whatever comes to mind.
Ekko is my normal. I named him that because I just think echo is a cool sounding word, but I like spelling names with K's.
Drako is my spider boy, named him that because I'm a total Harry Potter nerd, and my boyfriend is a big fan of that dragon movie that the dragon's name is Draco, so we both loved that name. Also spelled with a K instead of a C.
Zenna is my pastel girl. I just randomly thought of that name.
Loka is my spider girl. The marking on her head looks like Loki from the Marvel movie when he wears that helmet with the long horn things coming out of it, so we named her after him. Just made the name more feminine with an A.
Bayne is the cinny boy. Named him that because he was the biggest snake we had at the time, and we just watched the new Batman movie a few days before we bought him, and Bane is a big beast in that movie. Just changed the spelling up.
Paxton is the ghost, and not sure why I named him that. It's the name of the main guy in the first Hostel movie, and I just always loved that actor and that name, so I just decided to go with that.

Great question! It's tough when you don't really get to know them for a few weeks during the settling-in period. I named my mojo girl Dinah, which is part of a private joke that existed only in my mind until now: that her full name is Shadynasty, after a character on an episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. But my dogs are called Stella and Cassie, so Dinah kind of fits with that - a kind of retro-nerd name. I have a male super pastel who's still unnamed after 3 weeks. I have a few ideas floating around but haven't quite decided yet.

All the animal I have owned, aside from my dog, I have named after South Park characters. So far I have had TIMMY! (Red Eared Slider), Tweak (Desert Agama), Butters (Red Eared Slider), Token (Ouachita Map Turtle), and my newest Clyde (Ball Python). I am eyeing a female BP that I am thinking of either Bebe or Ms Crabtree. I tried to stick with the obscure characters and not the main ones. What can I say I am a South Park nut :rolleye2:
