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

    So do some of you have a logic behind naming your new additions? I was thinking about naming my after a theme, which happens to be old school cars. Whats yours? or how do you come up with the names you have?

    I dont name my BPs but when I name my animals I like to name them like their people. I dont know why I do this but thats just how I name most of my animals. Like I named my chameleon cameron. And my hog island boa Salazar (nothing to do with Harry Potter)....

    No theme, I just name what I like. Some are from movies/TV, some I just heard around, some I made up (or maybe I heard them elsewhere and subconsciously I thought I made them up) lol

    We are kind of boring when it comes to naming our snakes.

    It all started with the Military Code, shortly after that it was whatever my wife decided on the day we picked up the snake. We have a girl named Sunday, bet you can't figure out what day we got her. Now we have Pastel#2, Pastel#3 etc... They all get pet names eventually depending on their personalities, but there is no method to our madness.

    I have seen some cool names n the board here that referenced Marvel Super Heroes, Mythical Gods, Movie Stars and Celebs etc

    No themes here. Some my daughter has named, some we just all decide on something we like.

    I've decided all mine will be named after mythology. And not just one mythology, ones from all over the world. That is, whenever I get more snakes.

    No real theme here either, except possibly for my crested geckos. I try to name them after natural things - spices, herbs, etc. But the snakes are all given names that mean something to me or suits their personality.

    The girls name ours. That's why they have names like Jellybean (cornsnake) and Baby Bee. Hey they wanted to name the new bee Starlight Shines and then they settled on Baby Bee.

    I have a hard time naming pets as well. I started to name things that they remind me of. For instance, My leopard gecko Juice. Named him that cause he's the same color as the juice I drink as my morning wake up beverage. lol
