    My pinstripe pied's name is Lt. Dan because, just like his namesake in Forrest Gump, he ain't got no legs

    Re: How did your snake get its name?

    I have 6 snakes currently! My most recent pics of them are weight pics, ha! Also, my reptile room is pink.... it used to be a nursery room like 20 years ago and we haven't got around to repainting. So, I apologize for the super weird lighting, lol.

    My Ball Pythons have phonetic alphabet names:

    Echo





    Whiskey




    Tango



    (Foxtrot is coming soon....)



    My KSB, Socks! Because... she looks like a sock puppet.








    My Jungle Carpet Python JPEG, because I thought "Jungle Carpet" sounded similar to JPEG. I have to have to place a lid on the bowl I use to weight him, else he'll zoom straight out of there. To be fair, he probably still could, since I don't actually seal the container, but he doesn't know that, so shhhh!



    Also, this famous image, known as "soon.jpg," is what made me think of JPEG.





    My California Kingsnake, Salazar, named after the founder of the Slytherin house!




    Ball Pythons!
    1.0 Normal - Echo
    1.0 Spider Enchi Ghost - Whiskey
    0.1 Super Pastel Lesser - Tango
    1.0 Butter Spider Het Hypo - Foxtrot

    Other Snakes!
    0.1 Albino Paradox KSB - Socks
    1.0 Jungle Carpet Python - JPEG
    1.0 California Kingsnake - Salazar

    Geckos!
    0.2 Super Hypo Tangerine Leos - Riddle and Valkyrie

    Nibbler : my Cali king. Name is from Futurama. As the name imply, she never turns down a meal, no matter the size or type.

    Banana : my banana bp. I got lazy with naming.

    Bender : my Children's Python. Name is from Futurama.

    All Might : my woma. Name is from Hero Academia. Those eyebrows...

    Scruffy : my dumerils boa. Name is from Futurama. Dumerils Latin name means lazy snake. Fitting for Scruffy the janitor.

    And yes, I like Futurama.

    Two ball pythons--

    One is Dead Pixel (usually call her Pixel), an Enchi, because of the way her pattern looks like pixelation, and the random white scales that look like the dead pixels in a monitor display.


    The other is Radiogram (Radio), a Mojave, because it looks like he has old-timey tooth x-rays on his sides.

My Cubans are Julio and Carmen. My coral glow is Max Skinner (from the movie A Good Year) so his purple passion girlfriend-to-be is Fannie Chanel. My high white pied is Escobar (cocaine drug lord). My albino is Daisy. My Otay rosy male is Speckles because he has speckles, and his lady friend is Lady. My SD female is a lavender so her name is Peaches, hence her boyfriend is Herb (1970's vocalist duo). Oh, and I have a tessera Corn named Barry Allen (the Flash) because he's fast as He** .
    DLena, Your Cuban is awesome! I had a breeding pair (Morticia & Gomez) several years ago and deeply regret giving them up when I reduced my collection. I haven’t seen these available since I gave up my pair. I might be weak if I ever find another Cuban boa available.

    As for names, the current collection is:

    Duncan (female Colombian redtail) - from the character in McBeth...she was supposed to be a he when I got her.

    Eli (male normal ball python) - original owner called him Elizabeth, not a girl!, so I shortened it to Eli.

    Hudson (male Colombian rainbow) - named after a character in the cartoon Gargoyles.

    Merlin (male Solomon Island ground boa) - had a lot of issues adjusting to captivity, getting him to feed, it was ‘magic’ that he survived.

    Yin (female hypo corn snake) - one half of a pair of hatchlings that were light and dark, Yin represents the female.

    Yang (male corn snake) - second half of the pair, Yang represents the male.

    Bullet (unsexed corn snake) - offspring of the above pair, kind of silvery when he first hatched and fast as a bullet.

    Buttercup (male albino ball python) - When I first got him, his yellow reminded me of buttercups...unfortunately for him, it stuck.

    Piper (female piebald ball python) - The pied piper...hokey, I know.

    Belle (female lemonblast ball python) - After Beauty & the Beast, and the character Belle’s pretty yellow dress.

    Button (male BEL ball python) - Because he’s cute as a button. Hopefully I’m not emmasculating my male pythons. lol

    Artemis (female dragonfly ball python) - She’s a goddess. Artemis is a Greek goddess and part of her identity is the goddess of the hunt, the moon, and nature...often represented with an animal.

    Lol, how do you all have such lovely/awesome names for your snakes, yet I still haven't named my bp? XD I've had him since August 28th. Looking for some inspirations. You guys are great at it
    My best friend is a cat.
