Years back I adopted a serial-biter (yearling BCI) after she was passed from home to home, perfecting her bite techniques during her first year of life. In my heart
I KNEW she was just a scared defensive baby trying to survive, so to remind myself of that, as well as to bring smiles to all the others who eventually met her, I named
her "Snookems" (as in, "baby Snookums") & pictured her in a bonnet & baby carriage, which made me laugh at all her evil hisses. With my patience she out-grew her
attitude in under 2 mos. & never bit me, but her name worked like a charm every time she met people...they giggled.
Snakes are scary to many people, & big snakes are even scarier. If you can lighten the tension so people laugh, they're more accepting of snakes- that's why I cringe
when people give negative-sounding names to their snakes, names that invoke images of monsters & death, for example. Snakes need WAY more friends & good names
can actually help.
I can't tell you off-hand what to name this snake (might get back to you though?) but I hope you'll keep this in mind & choose a name that's humorous rather than dark.
There's no rush, I promise he'll NEVER come when you call him...

I almost put that in the original post. I haven't named him because he doesn't come when you call him

BTW, I didn't see the movie Gremlins & have no opinion about naming him Stripe. It's all up to you, what name you like & that fits him.

No problem sir. Obviously since I have not named him in over 6 months I am not set on anything. And I am sure someone has a better name than I thought of. Not in a rush.

Your boa is boss! I'd name him Bolo after the villain in the 1973 Bruce Lee martial arts movie 'Enter the Dragon'.
