Now before i say anything it is TOTALLY up to the owner of the animal as to what they name it,but the amount of beardies called spikes or lizards called yoshi, or royals callled monty amazes me! I try to think of individual names my Crestie is called kiki etc. and when i get my royal i want to think of a name that genuinly suits her. Also for the poll, do you name your animals before seeing them, admittedly i thought of pumpkin before i got my GALS, and i knew id call my crestie kiki, but i was going to call oscar an african word meaning thundercloud, but when i saw him i thought, stuff that hes oscar.

I tend to stockpile names I like depending on species, but I dont assign a name for definite before I have seen the animal. I was going to name my next female chuck Cherokee (they all have Native American names), but when I saw her I didnt think it suited so I went with Keres instead.

I dont name any babies for several days in fear that I will jinx them!

i always call them names from country they originate from. like i call all the royals african names, i google it then that way i get the meaning too.

My male chuck Mojave is Mo-Mo, my MTS Kaiser is Kai-Kai, Gremlin is Grem-Grem...spot the pattern?!

Most of my pets end up with "arino" or "arini" at the end of the names at some point or other - Tegarino, Grovarini etc etc. Whatever springs to mind really!

I do that now, I have a CRB called Charly because of it being one of the largest exports from Colombia. My JJCP is called Sydney because of being australian.

However, one of my royal is called Molly (she was called Monty till I found out he was a she) the other is called Noodles for no reason. One of my corns is called Fluffy (she didn't have a name for ages and I got fed up with peoples comments about snakes being slimy) the other is called Dexter because of the lead singer of Offspring and the programme. My boa is called Rocky as the kids liked the name Rocky Balboa.

I cant stand it when you come across dogs and cats called blackie snowy because they are white or black or spot, smudge, patch things like that its shows complete lack of imagination and i always think how boring.
