    Dino (B&W Tegu): Obviously,...from the Flinstones, I remember when I was little I had a lot of the stuffed toys plus one big one that I would always sit or lay on while watching the cartoon .

    White Boys "Powder" (APBT): White Boy, because he's white (w/eyes that change colors)and he's a boy :lol:. Powder, because I love the movie "Powder" (if anyone remembers it) and because I adopted him right before I switched from active duty to reserves while I was in Colorado. His eyes and coat remind me of the snow and blue skies there,...good times . So,..it fits but I call him Powder. When ever I say White Boy he looks at me like I'm crazy and he's slow doin what I say. As soon as I call him Powder he's up, body waving, tail waging with that pitbull smile, ready for what ever .

    Those are my two boys for now,...but two new babies pending.
    0.1.0 BP (Spiral) aka Rita Wayward
    2.1. Dogs (White Boys "Powder", Paw Paws "Achilles" & Panini)

    My Tegus Name is Shredder.. When we got her she was in this tiny little plastic container :( and she was tearing everything apart trying to get out... idk it just kinda stuck... I also have a Ball Python named Kahlua because at the time my boyfriend and i were on a white russion kick and love Kahlua.. and she is really dark like the alcohol.. i think Kahlua really grew into her name... We have only had Shredder for about 2 months now so im still not really sure if her name actually fits her personality yet...

    Sure!

    Tegus:
    Blizzard (B/W female) came with the name and the previous owner's 4yo boy wanted me to keep the name
    Kreacher (B/W female) because she acts like the Harry Potter character (won't, won't please the master)
    Rexi (red male) from Night at the Museum because he likes to play with toy balls
    Oreo (Colombian female) she's black and white like an Oreo
    Chester (Colombian male) he came with the name

    Beardies:
    Boo and Two Toe have missing toes
    Bella and Edward are a young mated pair
    Nubs has a big part of his tail missing
    Quasimodo used to have a curved spine

    Others:
    Jackie is a green iguana that came with the name Capt Jack Sparrow. I thought Jackie was just easier.
    Hammy the uro from the little hyper squirrel in Under the Hedge (he also goes by Henry Zulu)
    Ameiva...I call him Ameiva but my kids call him Patrick or Nick Nack
    Elmo is our new little gator. We used to have Oscar (he was a GROUCH), but we are hoping Elmo will live up to his name and be cute and calm.
