In the order that they are in my signature...

New Baby Girl or BabyG (temporary)

non-snakes:

It's so fun to find the right name for them. Although my classmates named Creamy and DB and the names just stuck

[BeniciaBrian]

I cannot vote. I get a message that says my session does not appear to be valid? Anyone know whats wrong?

[srw3897]

Voting only works for me when it's a poll I posted.

[BeniciaBrian]

Somebody gets to vote. I see there are 12 votes in the results. Whats up?

Yes I name my corns. Oops. Our corns. I share them with my kids. And now my wife has one.

[Neil]

I named my snakes because I've only got a few but, when my collection gets a lot bigger and I start to breed them all and things, I think I'll probably stop.

[B-J@y]

Reptiles=3 i name all my Snakes Greek names i like it better!!

Hi i don't want to be nitpicking, but ISIS is a egyptian god! ;)

Further, i named al three of my corns! but peaple with a eater collections will have a bigger poblem naming theyre corns!

[Simon]

Well...I am never a creative person...so never named my snakes before.....I tried...but then the number of snakes that I have is growing so fast that I don't think that I wil be able to name them.....I only number them right now....but sooner or later....I don't think that the number thing would work.....I am now starting to forget which one is what number already....
having around 40 + snakes right now and going to be around 80-90+ snakes in two months time......so I don't think that I will be able to remember them all...LOL....

The number before the decimel is the number of males, the number after the decimel is number of females.

2.3 = 2 males, 3 females.

If there is a third number, it is the number of snakes whose gender is unknown/unsexed snakes(like with hatchlings).

0.3.35 = 0 males, 3 females, and 35 snakes whose gender has not been determined.

[BloodyCats]

My serpents are:

Normal Corn "Irwin"
Amel Corn "Penny"
Anery Corn "Chaos"
Ball Python "Miss Cleo"

They are all named after something. Irwin after the croc hunter and his wife, Penny after the kid on Inspector Gadget, Chaos after a computer game where there are serpent "gods" of chaos, order and balance, and Miss Cleo is named after the TV "psychic."

[SnakesRus007]

baby Amel -- Mr. Slithers
Adult female reg -- flash
large Iguana -- tornado
Baby Iguana -- blue (it has a blue head)
Hamsters -- Chopper and killer (trust me they live up to their names....)

[Missymonkey]

okeetee= zoey after the orange monster on sesame street

anery a= maisy after the mouse in the semi famous children's books and tv cartoon ( i think it's still around)

I hope I am not jinxing them though because I have not yet recieved them, Don is shipping them this week, I am nervous, excited and so glad the wait is over...

and elvis is my new gecko (my fiance bought me, sigh, how romantic) and mia (after frank sinatra's third wife mia farrow) is my tabby cat, and she's a spit fire, and scott has an oscar fish named ozzy (evil ugly huge fish which i don't recomend anyone buying)

[Kilojara16]

Techically, I don't have a snake,yet (6 more days) but I have come up with names. I really like Calliope (Calli for short) which is a name of one of the muses in Greek Mythology. Or maybe Fortuity as in good luck. I also like Eponie, Aeris, and Ophelia. If I end up getting a male I'd might name him Leonardo (De Vinci), Tony, or maybe Nacho.

[Hurley]

I like the name Ophelia.

Hmm, I may be a bit partial. Ophelia, my anery female gave birth to a lovely clutch of 18 this year.

Good luck with your new little one when you get it. This must be worse than waiting for Christmas to get here!

[Katie]

My snakes name is Snoopy because everytime I go into the room at night she is hanging off her branch pushing her snout (nose?) against the top of the enclosure in a vain attempt to get loose!

[Elaphe_Mo]

1.1 normal - Mephistopheles ("Fleas") & Isult
1.1 snow - Flick & Holly
1.1 amber - Toes & Missy
1.1 silver queen ghost - Rygel & Blue

Plus 1.0 Guyanan rainbow boa - Hue

[Jimmy C.]

Hi ,
I have 25 snakes and they all have names. I keep a lable on each viv so that I know which snake is in each one. It helps alot at feeding time when I have 6 snakes out in feeding containers,I know which viv they go back to.
The names I choose just come to me .
Jimmy C.

Some of my leo's names: Elvis, Cosmo, Tang, Cygnus, Storm, Whisper...

No rhyme or reason....

[Susan]

All of my snakes have names, and, including the keepers from this year, I have 85 total. I even have names picked out for the potential future keeper hatchlings for the next 2 years. I don't want to spend the next hour listing them here, I do have to get up and work in the morning. Some of the names are not very creative, but some get fairly creative, especially when I try to make them go together if the hatchlings are siblings.

[wheeler78]

my snakes name is the best the one and only..... SHEBA!!!
a very pretty snowcorn i got some pics of her in th pic gallary.

[GinnyO]

All hail Sheba!! Thy name will live in infamy!! LOL :D Ginny

[sue frederick]

Echo - male amel
Blaize - female sunglow
Spot - oketee
Smoke - anery (almost a ghost)
Ferrari - normal striped female
Elsie - creamsicle
M.C. - Honduran (named after MC Escher)
Picasso - Tangerine Honduran
Phyllis - Tangerine Honduran
Lacey - Children's Python

and then you have the mammals - Charlie, Nehi, Cheyenne are our dogs, Spice is the cat, (Stud) Muffin is the rabbit, and fish that have no names. The scorpions also have no names.

[StevenWD]

We name our snakes (we being my children and I). The kids also wanted to name the mice and rats. I was a bit weary as the rodents were there to produce food, so we compromised and I gave a naming convention. So our rodents carry the following (and similar) names...August 12th, August 19th, the twins are August 26th, etc.
