    Re: What's in a name?

    I named my normal "Mosamba".....which took me a while to come up with. Mosamba is African "to go away." I chose that name because of the origins of Ball Pythons and the fact that this one loves to "go away" into a hide 90% of the time! I haven't come up with a name for my female Pewter yet.

    I named my spider male Maguire, since Toby Maguire played Spiderman. My female albino is Peaches, the male Boots ( from Dora ) Boots the monkey likes bananas, bananas are yellow, so.........yea that was my daughters doing.
    I tend to name my "pairs" with "couples" names. My yellowbelly pair is Popeye and Olive Oyl, then there's Converse and Adidas, Suzuki and Kawasaki, Roxy and Vans. Then all my others just have random names that I like, History ( spider female ) Gemini ( pin female ) Merlin ( lesser male ) Grace, Ivy, Marleen, Goldie, Surita ( some normal girls ). Oh, my butter female is Parkay
    *Heather*
    I can't keep up with what I have

    Re: What's in a name?

    Male Het clown "Charlie" - I just like the name, inspired from the movie 'All dogs go to Heaven"

    Male Blackback Dinker "swirly" - Named so because one of his alien heads is a swirl mark.

    Female Burgundy Dinker "Carmine" - I had literally looked up color codes and was looking for a color that matched her looks that also sounded like a name. It had nothing to do with Gears of War lol.

    Female Spider "Cartwheel" - She was such a bad wobbler as a hatchling, I thought that if she had arms and legs she would be doing cartwheels, but she has since grown out of most of that

    Female Enchi 'Cookie' - Not sure if I was hungry at the time, but her color kind of reminded me of a cookie, like oatmeal.

    Female Normals 'Mona & lisa' - Bought them from the same person but I can honestly say they are the ones who got random names, but they had to be linked names of some sort.

    Male Blue Eyed Lucy het ghost 'Orochimaru' - If your a watcher of naruto you'd understand. Was basically a villan who turned out to be a blue eyed white snake demon

    Male Dinker "Kichiro Yukiko" - Named so cause he has a perfect 3 leafed clover in his pattern(even tho its upside down), I couldn't find the japanese word for clover so i used words that meant luck.

    Super Dwarf Retic "Chezza" -If you've ever watched the anime 'Wolf's Rain' you'd know who I'm refering to. I named her that from her slight rarity as not many people work with True SD retics similar to Chezz'a rarity in the anime.

    Male Albino Green Burmese "Brolly" I don't know who hasn't seen Dragonball Z but thats my inspiration for his name. He's just a baby now and he's a little sweetheart, but hes going to get huge, I figure long as I don't name any of my other snakes 'Kakarot' He should stay my gentle giant for all his life lol

    Last but not least is a Female Bumblebee that I haven't gotten my inspiration for yet.Shes my only 'No Namer' right now, but I've only had her for a month so still plenty of time.

    Lol I did not know that. I learn something new everyday! Now her name has some meaning behind it. To me, it was her telling me what her name was.
    Thanks for the info tidbit

    Damn! Lose internet for a day while changing apartments and see what you miss...The Head Bangers Ball and a Beautiful woman on a sick bike!

    I always choose names from Greek or Roman mythology. My new Pastel Lesser is Jupiter.

    That is why they make smart phones, Slim...so you don't miss anything....LOL

    A woman I know has an Ibizan Hound named Medea.
    She had a litter of puppies....and we all waited nervously until they grew up enough to be weaned....
    [thankfully, the sire wasn't named Saturn or they'd have been doomed and consumed for sure]

    So, do you call Jupiter "Jove" for short?
