Naming assistance needed

[zamora]

I still haven't come up with a good enough name for my new Key West Boa. He's so awesome, he deserves an awesome name. I don't usually have a difficult time naming my animals but I see I need some help. Throw some names at me!

Re: Naming assistance needed

Thats a hard one.. I usually pick out a particular trait about the boa to make my decision.

I don't know what type of name you are looking for but I have been hearing the name "Cassius" for a while now. You can pronounce it "Cash-us" or "Cas-e-ous."

Zamora - again, I'm glad he's with you and the anticipation is over.

As far as naming.... To me; he looks like a Rocky or Keystone (for the genes not the beer)

"KissMe" (hahahaha!) **

I usually do as Elizabeth94 does...time & characteristics usually suggest something to me. Sometimes I totally make up a name too, or look through a name-dictionary for ideas, especially

for the foreign-exotic ones. Opposites work too: when I named what was THEN an overly-defensive (teeth-first) boa, I called her "Snookems" to remind me (& everyone else) that she was

just a scared baby at heart...but when she got big, it also served as an "ice-breaker" when she got to meet people. Giggles help to dispel fear in those not comfortable with snakes.

**BTW, there was a boa named "Esme" in the old movie "Foul Play" with Chevy Chase & Goldie Hawn...

Wow, great minds! The first three on the list are what came to my mind plus Crockett and Tubbs since they went to the Keys sometimes.
