u can see it this way or another. sometimes i think the names are really unnecessary but some really are good.
id rather say enchi killerqueen than lesser super pastel spider enchi or red spectrum instead of hidden gene lesser hidden gene woma yellow belly granite pastel

I think it really comes down to whether the name sticks or not. There's ton of 3 and 4 gene morphs with bee stuck on the end. It's all about whether it catches on, no ones stopping you from calling it Super pastelxBlack pastelxspiderxpinstripexYB

Why? There are over 45 base morphs for Ball Pythons. If every combination of two or three morphs were named, there would be over 15,000 names.
atleast 85 lol
HorrorBee is kinda a stretch if you ask me I mean HumbleBee if just 1 letter off from Bumblebee, makes sense.
plus theres a group of us that really don't see calling plain hypos...ghosts, since a true ghost is a hypo/axanthic. thats a name id rather see changed lol.

Hypo + bumblebee = humblebee
honeybee + bumblebee = humblebee
There's two ways for the 'humblebee' name to make sense.

I'm think HorrorBee for the HumbleBee and ITball for the Clown Ghost. The HorrorBee is rather obvious, but the ITball is a reference to Stephen King's IT.
Any thoughts?

Wasn't trying to, just thought the name was clever.

I don't mind the 2 combo names, like bumblebee and honeybee and whatnot, Just anything more than 3 should just be named after the genetics involved. Too many combos and too little coordination. It's fun to come up with names for a morph you came up with, but just because one person uses it won't stop someone else from using another name
