    need help naming western hognose please

    i don't normally ask this kind of question on a forum, but i'm having some serious issues coming up with a name for this little hoggy. the only semi-okay name i've come up with for him was boss.. as in boss hogg from dukes of hazard. the only problem is that i hate dukes of hazard
    someone else mentioned duke, as in john wayne, because he's a western hognose... but its kind of a weak assimilation i guess.
    ideas? please?!

    How about Butch or Cassidy or Sundance? If that sort of thing is interesting I'm sure google has a ton of info on infamous outlaws of the wild west.

    Re: need help naming western hognose please

    Sundance would be a cool name. =)

    Other ideas:

    Pecos Bill
    Sierre Madre (prolly better if it's a girl)
    Route 66
    Wyatt or Wyatt Erp
    Chimichanga
    Kokopelli
    0.1 ball python (Cleo), 0.1 surinam bcc (Carmen)
    1.0 sunglow motley corn (Jenson), 1.0 albino burmese (Lourdes)
    1.0 cat (Nicky), some mooses and ratters, 1.0 hubby (Rick)

    Re: need help naming western hognose please

    ha, i like the names!

    technically this is my girl's snake (even though it's at my house and i take care of it) so i'll have to see what she says.

    for some reason i like chimichanga - although that may be because i'm starving right now

    Re: need help naming western hognose please

    hmmm...what kind of personality does your hognose have? Personally, I base the name on their own unique personalities....ie, my pets (both past & present)

    Mouse - Cat
    Squeaker - Cat
    Scooby - Cat (deceased)
    Shorty - Cat
    Houdini - Cat (*adopted/looking for new home*)
    Blaze - Shetland pony (deceased)
    Socrates - Corn snake (no longer owned) *stupid bylaws*
    Lucifina - Hamster (snake snack)
    Aithne (celtic, meaning little fire) - Corn snake (no longer own) *stupid bylaws*
    Cleo(patra) - King Snake (no longer owned) *stupid bylaws*
    Ginger (ale) - Quarter Horse/Through Bred
    Coco - Shetland Pony (deceased)
    Pepper - Pot Belly Pig
    Stalker - Wolf/Huskie
    Sometimes I feel like the RED SHIRT in the Star Trek episode of life.

    I had one, and named it "Piggy", or you could name it Wilbur, or some other pig/hog name. I do like Harley, though....you could ask people if they want to see your hog, then show em' your snake!

    I know it doesn't matter...but in tombstone Doc Holiday was played by Val Kilmer...maybe you're referencing another movie that I don't know about though
