Q: What Should I Name Him....
Posted By:

In Relation To:

Magnum [SSRC #A1]

So I need the iherpers help, I am trying to come up with a good name for one of my snakes. I got him three weeks ago thinking I would come up with some clever name but I never did so I'm asking for everybodys help. I would like to give him an australian name as his breed is from australia (Jungle/Coastal Carpet Python) but I will entertain any ideas.

Thanks Everybody

A little Aussie guy, eh? Well, there are some good city names you could use like Perth, Brisbane (my dad's from here so I'm found of this one), Karratha, or Darwin or the less unique name Sydney.

I had a carpet I named him Monty, lol, yeah very unoriginal.  You could call him Mel, short for Melbourne, Australia, that's where my boyfriend is from, very pretty area.  I usually find my names on babynames.com, you can type in a meaning and it'll show you names associated with that meaning.  I actually really like names that start with a J but are pronounced as a Y.  My boyfriend is named Jan (pronounced Yon), but that's more European.  But along that like I like Jukka, Jens, Jorg, etc.  I also like the named Varg, even though it means Wolf.

Hmmm I always liked the name Legs for a snake. I'm not very familiar with australian things except the invasive Australian pine trees we have around here. *shrugs*

I went online and looked up reptile and serpent mythology and combined two of them together ( Naga + Ophion = Nagion) to get my Tegu's name.
