Charlie - My doggy, a chocolate brown miniature poodle because his kennel club name is Mr Choccy Charlesworth chosen by the dumb breeder
Diddle and Dave - My mouseys just because the character Diddle and Dave is just a cool name
Elvis - My goldfish because his fin on his back was black so it looked a bit like the king himself
Barkie - My *****cat, well why not :D
And as for my snake I think Im gonna get a male snow stripe and i like Fraser, Travis, Rex, Rufus, Orson, Otis or Milo just because I want to call him something a little bit unusual, but if I was to get a girl I would without a doubt call her Audrey because Audrey Hepburn was the most amazing actress to ever live. ;)

But seriously, guys, it's really cool, all the names, and the reasons why ... Come on, all of you who haven't contributed yet!
To say nothing of your own names ... perhaps I should start another thread on how did you all get your names??? |

Hi, good morning, Stotty, was thinking about you the other day - have been hearing steam trains lately (???) and then found they were doing steam specials along the east coast line which runs nearby. The other morning I was walking into town - just at the right time to see her as she steamed into the station - beautiful sight!
Medusa is a cool name, and I like Benson for a dog ...if you get another dog will you call it Hedges?
Again, thanks everybody - the names are fascinating! |

Well, you know Tallulah Bankhead was a beautiful blonde actress - famous for her throaty voice and witty one-liners - a good gal to be named after, and fabulous name! |

My son chose Tangos name, he called him it cos he is an orangey colour.
Our male Staffie is called Bryn, as he came from Brindale Road in Brinnington plus hes brindle, so we couldn't really call him anything else lol.
Our female Staffie is called Tia, as the evening we had collected her I sat having a glass of Tia Maria.
Our female cat is called Jasmine, my son chose that as we didn't like the name the rescue centre had given her (Vesta).
Our male cat is called Zazoo, he was called that as we watched the Lion King the same day we collected him and I fell in love with the parrots name (he was called Zazu, but we have spelt the name differently).
There is only one fish that has a name in our fishtanks, he is a Yellow Acara (Aequidens Metae) and hes called Ed. I don't know why we named him or why we named him Ed, but it suits him. Hes a big bruiser of a fish and is very chunky, hes about 6" - 7" long and about 3" - 3.5" deep. Here are a few photos of Ed, I hope you like him:-

my first was Sid the Snake :)
the rest are:
Flake - because she's a snow
Cornelia - couldn't think of a name for her so we had a name the snake competition in the pub :)
Brinker - named after Hans Brinker the boy who stuck his finger in a dyke (ooeerrrr! ) because he was a gift from a Dutch friend
Maria - the kids named her after Maria in corrie 
Dave the Angry Ultramel - because everyone needs a snake called Dave
Gobje - another gift from different Dutch friends, her name is a combination of theirs - its pronounced 'gobby' which is apt, she's proper snappy
Boddington - he's the same colour as a pint of boddies
Stella - same as above, but stella :)
theres 11 more corns unnamed, I might start another thread for suggestions - they're all a year old now!
Derek - glades ratsnake named after my Dad because I got him shortly after he died
Bo - female glades named to match Derek
Reba - our rottie, my wife named her
and theres a pair of hondos, a beardie and a pacman frog, also with no names :( |

Very true!
In my Siamese breeding days I knew of someone who called two of their Siamese cats Philip - and Monica. All was well until Monica got out, and they had to go round the neighbourhood chanting, 'Monica ...Monica! Kittykittykitty! Monica!'
You know, if I had another corn I'd be tempted to call it Muesli ...
Hey, maybe we should turn this into a 'what would you call your wishlist snakes?' thread? |

How Did Your Snake Get Its Name?
