what would you name your gecko

[chazthaking2]

thinking of names this thread is for the confused owner on what to name their gecko, so lets make a list of names for them and us

 

[chazthaking2]

I'll go first...most of my names come from characters in my story or just names that are only meant for a story
Eternity
Deviall

 

[samthebigkid]

Ideas:
Names of movie characters (ex: Neo)
Something Spanish (ex: Fernando)
A name of a type of candy (ex: Skittles)
A name of a fruit (ex: Peaches)
A name of a college Mascot (ex: Sparty)
Something that in no way describes a gecko (ex: Fluffy)

I have two coming to me on Monday, and I already have their names picked.

Other names I considered, though, are:

Boys: Bolan, Bowie, Demian, Winston, Mork, Parker, Orwell

Girls: Mage, Thera, Laverne, Mindy, Beatrice, Gertrude (the last two are main characters in Hermann Hesse books, and one is a title of a Hermann Hesse book).

I'm not good at thinking of girl names

The male I'm getting in a couple of weeks will have a draconic name based on The Dragonriders of Pern. I came up with Olerith, which is a cross between "Yellow" And "Yeller" And adding a draconic ending (th).

 

[Ratman667]

well, i have Edesia and Pax. Both are minor goddesses from Roman mythology.

Then there is Blue... Its one of those ironic names like Tiny. Blue is actually bright yellow.

Basically, you just have to use your imagination. Or, you can just let the animal name them self...

Correction: I just had 4 geckos arrive this morning. One crested and 3 leos.
I named my high yellow "Cotten", my male Bell is named "Jethro", and my SHTCT is named "Joplin".
My crested baby that arrived? His name is "Crackity Jones".
And man is he SUPER adorable.

 

[rawson5084]

Okay I guess its my turn lol.... Here are the names of our Leos....
Hannah.... Miley.... Lilly.... Cyrus.... All named from Hannah Montana
Fleury.... Named from Pittsburgh Penguins Goalie Marc-Andre Fleury
Andre.... Actually he got his name from 2 places #1 I dont know if anyone would remember Andre the Giant also know as the gentle giant The reason we named him that is he is our biggest leo and he is so sweet and gentle #2 Also named from Marc-Andre Fleury lol
Noel.... A girl on here actually suggested the name and we liked it so thats what we went with...
Irwin.... Named after Steve Irwin
Ash.... Named from Evil Dead
Spaz.... Just because it spazes out every time I go near it lol
Aurora.... Named from Babylon A.D

Our ball python is named Jack from Stargate SG1
Our 2 pacman frogs are named Stewie and Brian from Family Guy

But I do have a few ideas for future Leos.... Like...
Bella.... Carlisle.... Twilight.... From the movie Twilight
Cedric.... From Harry Potter
Sidney.. From Pittsburgh Penguins Player Sidney Crosby

All of our reptiles are named with a horror theme.

Anything we got unsexed (like cresteds) have sort of generic names like VooDoo and Hades. Our pacman frog is Jaws since we don't know the sex. Those all seem okay for either sex. I want a dark crested that I'm saving the name Twilight for. Our tokay is Lucifer.

Some of our other names are Norman, Damien, Kruger, Rafe, October, Akasha, Ginger, Hilda, Blair, Sybil, etc.

I really like doing the theme idea. If I didn't go with horror, I probably would have picked music names. Or maybe cartoon.

 

[ReptileRookie]

How about Dexter? I love that show

 

[ClownCarOnFire]

Well...I just have two geckos.
But here are their names.

Nakomis - My mom named her, she liked Nakomis from Big Brother. The girl always changing her hair color, she was fun. My mom named her Nakomis cus she loved the name and the fact that my gecko has a bunch of different colors.
I wanted to name her Shiloh, because she has always been a shy little thing.

Bridan - Given to me by a GF member, an adoption.
I was gonna name her Quasi. Like Quasimodo.
But decided against it.
Then I was gonna call her Breyer, like the ice cream. Because "Br" as in "Broken" and "eyer" like, "eye"...so "Broken Eye", because she has eye deformities.
But I hate Breyers ice cream, so I chose Bridan because it still sounds similar and was the name of a South Park character lol.

=D

 

[Kristi23]

I have a dog named Dexter. We named him before ever watching the show though. Now I love the show and his name just seems to fit him even if he's not a reptile. He's our only dog with a horror name.

 

[Kitsune]

Oh man.. Okay..
My names:

Odin is our Bearded Dragon.
Then as far as geckos we have: Sol, Kiske, Jasper and Alice (Twilight <333), Nidhogg AKA Bubba, Shinji, Seiryuu, Nobunaga, Rei, Ryuusei, Tonks (Harry Potter), Hikari, Athena, Yukinori, Delphyne, Luna (Harry Potter), Komet, Yuki.

I have a music theme going on for the animals in my house!
My dog is Ella Fitzgerald after the jazz musician (my son named her, he's a huge fan of Ella).

My high yellow gecko is "Cotten" after Elizabeth Cotten the awesome folk musician.
My Bell male is named "Jethro" after Jethro Tull (my husband happened to be listening to them when I was trying to think of a name for him).
My SHTCT is named "Joplin" after Janis Joplin
And my Crested Gecko is named "Crackity Jones" after a song by the Pixies.

Any other crested I get will be named either after Pixies' songs, Ween songs, They Might Be Giants songs, or Beck songs.
They're TOO cute to name something serious.

 

[Foreverandever]

You can get ideas for names from your favorite movie or book characters, bands/band members, personality of the gecko, or characteristics of their morph/pattern


Presley is named after Elvis Presley and Tippy is named after her regen tail tip

Names can Say Alot. Hello?

thinking of names this thread is for the confused owner on what to name their gecko, so lets make a list of names for them and us

Thinking on relating to someone
or something seems to be most persons attempt at picking
names for their critters. Oddball family or friend's names
can be fun and a bit of a remembrance to use.
(Especially if passed)
Native American Ancestors, Old trapper, hunting, fishing
and golf/sports buddies, etc. ...usually their fun nic-names.
But be careful on choosing any nic-names of the X-rated type.
take care. HJ
