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

[gsarchie]

I name mine things that relate to what morph they are. Patel - Gypsum, a mineral used in making pastel paints; Spider - Serine, the main amino acid used in spider silk for wrapping prey and egg sacs; Cinnamon - Nutmeg, just another brown spice. I now have to find names for my new hypo, VPI axanthic and het VPI axanthic. I'll also be picking up a lemonback soon, so maybe I'll name her after a type of citrus fruit?

My males got names of black guitarists and females got disney princess names lol

Except the burms and one crazy female ball python was named after the crazy chick from Dexter because she used to be a psychopath.

We only have one snake, but did have some reasoning behind his name, Herman.

DH's parents mentioned (very unobtrusively) some time ago that if we didn't have any male children, it would be the end of our family name. We ended up with two girls and arent having any more children, so when we got our albino, we rather lightheartedly named him Herman, after my FIL.

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

Yea, im sure once you get to the point where you run out names get pointless. I mean I only have 2 but once that turns in 20 then....idk what im gonna do lol

Most of mine are named either Bob or Fluffy. They never come when I call anyway.

I gotta admit though I do have fun naming my boas. Boa Derrick, Sonny Boa-no, Little Boa peep, Boa Diddley, Boa Bridges, Merci Boa-coup, Boa geste... It's just too much fun.

Mine are mostly named after Soulcalibur characters for now, some came with names and some I just name based on what fits (in my mind). If I don't pick names my husband will... He still refuses to call my honeybee anything but Wobbles....

I am an English teacher so I try to keep mine based around literature, mythology and that kind of thing. My wife is a little more random with names and she has named most of the reptiles. I have a dog named Wesley though from the princess bride. One of my corns is named Adalind (we call him Addie) and it means noble serpent. I named my new ball DaVinci. He is a pastel. DaVinci was one of the first to use the pastel art medium…so ya thats how my brain works.

i just name mine whatever comes to mind after i get to know them a bit. there is no real theme. my male pastel is crazy legs douglas, female IJ is mean helen jorgensen, two box turtles are clemmie and humfrey and three leopard geckos are named turtlepants, meat hook and fruit bat.

then there are the furry animals.....

I usually take my time in naming my snakes, but most eventually earn a moniker. Their names are usually a state of mind, or emotion. Fear, Fury, Sorrow, Spite, etc.
