I have to admit I don't like hard long names either. To give you example here are my current snakes...
sierra - anery corn snake
sniper - boa
citrine - piebald
jax - spider
rain - mojave
cruz - kingpin
kai - normal
oren - fire woma
trip - normal
gale - normal
wish - sugar
mystiq - leopard
red - gargoyle
verity - normal
raya - hey red
icsis - queen bee
echo - cinnabelly
axel - spark
onyx - black pewter yb
so that's the idea... Guess I didn't need to name them all but hey... Always a time to show off. But short and sweet is how I like it. What do you guys think of Thatcher for the male banana? Not sure if I like it too much. Naming is hard sometimes.
