    The Name Game
    i'm trying to come up with a good name for my new ball python. I'm pretty sure its a male, and i wanted to give it an african name becuase thats where they come from.
    these are my top picks:
    Zuberi - strong
    Kavi - wise man
    Obi - heart
    Udo - peace

    any suggestions?

    I started a thread here in General BPs called "What's in a name?", and there are some african names suggested in there.

    I vote for Obi because he opened your girlfriend's heart to owning a royal.

    haha no worries. its the net, you never know lol.

    so far my BF and my mom both vote for Obi. Also, the first pet my BF and I got together was a cat named Sobe (like the drink). He's such a lovebug.
    Here's a pic of Sobe as a kitten
