Name Game

I'm so fickle with names! I originally liked the name Ivrina for my new female ivory BP. But now it's just...uhg...

So, I have decided to start a hunt for her 'new' name!

I am open to suggestionsbut am looking for slightly short, softer names. Extra points if your name has a meaning!

So far I have found 3 names I kinda like. All are African.

Amara (grace)
Sanaa (art)
Zuri (beauty)

What are your thoughts?

Re: Name Game

Here's some pics for inspiration. I know she's small, and most likely will grow out of her colors, but she has alot of pink and purple under tones. =)

Re: Name Game

To be honest I really like Irvina! It's something deifferent and original

But yeah, I know that pain, my blizzard corn female still is called just "white"...

Re: Name Game

Yeah lol.

I couldn't decide on a name for my male hognose, and just called him "the hognose" and my mom, who hates the snake, felt he needed a name since I'd had him for months, and when I told her I couldn't decide, she decreed his name is now Horus. Who am I to argue? Lol

So now I have Horus and Emma hognose. Ironically, mom also named Calypso! Lol. She's way better at naming than I am. But hey...I named Moko lol

Re: Name Game

Is there a theme or trend to anything you have already? All mine are obscure star wars refrences. Its nice because I'll never run out of names.
Did you want to stick with the African theme? If so I'm thinking the african word for pearl. not sure what the word is but it would suit her.

Re: Name Game

She is beautiful so Zuri would be a befitting name. Nuru (filled with light) is another nice African female name.

Re: Name Game

I actually had Nuru on my original list but found it too close tu Nuro which is a bit freaky to me lol.

Might wanna find out what the african name for pearl is. Or perhaps other languages as well.

No themes or trends exactly except that I don't like naming after food or famous people if I can help it. Moko was spawned from the fact when I got him he looked like a mochachino, which is a food, and also too long lol. So it got shortened to Moko. =)

Re: Name Game

See what pearl translates too. It could be a cool option.
