Wow thats for the comments everyone! Oni has gotten alot bigger since Ive posted these.

LadyGecko - We had named Oni even before we had gotten him/her. Oni is a Japanese demon that has big crazy hair, horns and it comes in all different colors! I was just looking around on the net for Unisex names and ended up at Wikipedia, which also lead me to the "monster/legends" section. lol, Oni is also a character in a video game my BF use to play and he also liked the name, so that’s what we ended up with.

I hope to be getting more cresties and I have already started to think of some names:
Fubuki - video game char
Adell - video game Char
Valor – of course meaning "Courage"
Geb - god of the Earth and first ruler of Egypt
Ladon - serpent-like dragon
Kuk (keku) – an Egyptian night god


There are so many, but I love Japanese, Egyptian, and Greek inspired names! Anything that’s unusual and/or strong.

I like using japanese mythology and other ancient panthenons for names too! Thats a cute little crested by the way!

It's decided. When I go to the reptile show in October I'm leaving with at LEAST one crested gecko. If not two.

I love those pictures of him/her hanging on the edge of the cage.

The last reptile show I left with a crested and so did my boyfriend. And my favorite part is walking in my room and seeing him pressed against the glass looking at me. or the fact that he can jump two feet.

Thanks everyone! I will be posting some NEW pictures of Oni very soon! I recently found out Oni is a baby boy! He will be 5 months in two days, so I will be weighing him and taking some new pics. Ill post them in a new thread so keep an eye out! Last time I weighed him, which was about a month ago; he was just about 7grams and SVL of 3.5 inchs.
