Let's hear what everybody names their BP!

Hello everyone! Well I am new here and just reading through all the treads. Here's my story. About 25 years ago I had a few clutches of eggs. All were normals, as this is all there really was back then, except for the big money albinos of the time. College kind of forced me out of the hobby and I never looked back. Last year my oldest daughter told me
she wanted a snake after seeing some pictures I had from back then. I decided to see if the local expo was still happening and it was. When I got there I was amazed at how much I have been missing. We ended up with our first ball, a pinstripe male she named stormy because it was raining when we got her. I decided what the heck lets see if we can breed some of these cool looking balls and did a little research. I found a guy selling his whole clutch at a really good price. I picked up six snakes of unknown gender. 2 mojave/spiders, three mojaves, and one spider. Had them sexed and one mojave and a spider were male and the rest females. He also threw in a herpstat 1, heat tape, and an incubator. All this for 250. I sold the two males for 80 bucks and kept the females.
spider/mojave names. Eclipse and sunshine
mojave names beast and luna
to this we added a male butter named Mr. Meany for obvious reasons
and a phantom we names phantom.
we love these guys and girls but did have one question

do you guys think our females could be ready to go next year. I am guessing the bigger ones are around 750 grams right now. Could they double in time?
thanks

Lol as I got to that part of the story I thought the same thing.

Lucille Ball Python (Not a Lucy but I loved the name too much not to use it)

I also just adopted a normal today and I'm leaning toward "Sasha". Or possibly "Spot".

I named my boy Thurman, which was inspired from a track from one of my favorite pianist's CDs. Thurman was a dog, but I think it's a pretty good snek name too.

I always get a good chuckle when I see people have named their male snake Nagini. Since it was my understanding that a Nagini is the female counterpart of a male Naga. Not that there is anything wrong with that. I just see it a lot. :-)

I'm planning on naming my Ball Python Prelude. I just cannot get Ave Maria (the Gounod and Bach version) played by John Michel out of my head. Love the Prelude C major, so, why not name my Ball after something I adore.
