names..

fred- a rather normal name.

alfie- was gonna name her Al, since she's albino, but alfie is a little more famine sounding.

sancho- my girlfriend bought him for me so i named him after her. sancho was a nickname i gave her awhile ago (don't remember why).

inspector becks- we named him becks cause I rescued him the same day david beckham arrived in the US, and thew an inspector in there cause he has a cool looking mustache.

grendel- i have always loved the book beowulf, and my friend has a cat named beowulf so i couldn't take that name.

selene- she's my all white leucistic rat snake, and when she was in quarantine she was in front of a poster i have of kate beckinsale in the movie underworld. and in the movie her name was selene.

jovi- my girlfriend liked that name, don't know why.

i still have to name my spider, pastel, and het ghost.

My normal is Ozzy= My son named him. ( Ozzy Osbourne )

My lemon pastel = Corona after the beer and because of the yellow in him.

My albino= Edgar after the albino rocker Edgar Winter.

My het albino= Janis after Janis Joplin ( in keeping w/ the rock theme )

Sekhmet Doom: Female Burmese cat. Sekhmet is the Egyptian goddess of war and protection. She is the Lion headed goddess and is sister to Bast (the Cat headed goddess). When I got her (the cat) I wanted to name her Bast, but she was NOT all regal and kind, so she got to be called Sekhmet. The Doom part came in when I realized she is a terror. She lives in Washington state with my mom.

Reshmar: Male Ball Python. I was vaccuming just after I had gotten him and I just thought of it. Probably relevant to some Star Trek episode.

Sitka Renenutet: Female Ball Python. When I first wanted a Ball Python I meant to get a girl and name it Renenutet (Utet for short [sounds like "oootet"]). Instead I got Reshmar first because the store owner wanted to sell the females he had to breeders. Renenutet is the Egyptian snake goddess and is a protector of sorts. However, when I got Sitka she didn't feel like an "Utet", so I just came up with Sitka to use as a name, and eventually put both names together.

Lex is my normal bp big superman fan soo thought that would be a cool name for a snake
Kiff is my other normal bp love futurama
and i got a 07 spider coming soon and im in between names like "brock" cuz of the villan in spiderman venom his realy name was eddi brock

Wow, great thread! Very inventive names. I tend to name my snakes as groups like Wolfy-Hound does. All my normals get names after spices/herbs; such as parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme. My pastels get fruit names like mango, peaches, kiwi, and canari. My clowns are named after clowns: bozo, clarabel, etc. My butters have names such as Parkay, marj, etc. Then there's those that my daughter names: scrotum, bizotch, Bonnie and Clyde, Martini and Rossi, Borris and Natasha, Thelma and Louise, etc.

Got a columbian boa female comin.. Gonna name her Button. Because.

Lol!!! I name my fish too! I just didn't post them because I thought the same thing! :8:

Ricky/Algae eater (Pleco??)-My friend named him... I actually think it is a girl so I call her Rickyetta.

Bully/Firethroat Meeki-He is an aggresive fish and always picks on my other firethroat.

Billy/My other firethroat-Is always picked on and Billy is a very small, picked on name. (No offense to anyone that may be named Billy on these boards.)

Sharky/Rainbow Shark-Pretty self explainitory (SP?).

:) I've always named my fish. Heck, all my stuffed animals have names as well! I just didn't list the fish, past or present, because my list would have been two pages long.

Right now I have two goldfish named Bitt and Bite because they started out in a cute little one gallon tank shaped like a computer monitor. Also have a pleco named Norton because he cleans up the computer. :)
Probably the cutest fish name was given by my daughter to an iridescent shark: Spaz. She said it was because that's what he did.

The majority of mine are named after the dragons of Anne McCaffrey's book series. Only Amani, Sullivan and Sonja the boa have differing names.

We have:
Arith, Breth, Miranth(going to Sarah, I'm sure they'll change her name :) ), Arith, Orth, Alaranth, Branth, Solth, Hannath(going to Jo, so she's gonna be an Irish girl), Orlith(Joanna's too), Mininth, Caylith, Wirenth, Faranth, Tiroth, Zaranth and Loranth(going to go be Irish ladies too), as well as 4-6 I need to name. Phew!

I have to look up names for a granite male, a jungley female, a hypoish female, a harlequin female and a classic jungle female(formerly known as KLG), as well as what I come home from Daytona with and what I keep from the clutches that are hatching(hatched). My roster is full...

faun-like the guy from pan's laberinth
madusa- mythological names are good
athena-another myth name
