Ok moms, my husband just got two crested geckos from his daughter when she moved. They are cute little things, sort of sand and cream colored with chevron markings. They are really soft too. Anyway, we are looking for names for them. They are babies now and we don't know if they are male or female, but it really doesn't matter for the names. Any suggestions for unique or unusual names???? I suggested Atticus and Rosebud, but hubby nixed those. We are looking for something a little different, but not bizarre. Also, we want a little something more than Ted and Cathy - I like both those names, by the way, we just want something a little more exotic. Thanks mamas!

So What Happened?

Wow, lots of great names!!! I'm glad I posted this. The decision will be up to my husband, and he is still thinking, so we'll have to see! Thanks for all the suggestions!

If they are tan colored - what about Ponch and John?
Just thinking of the C.H.I.P.S. tan uniforms and always thought it would be funny to have two pets with those names.

LOL! My family had a lizard when my brothers and I were teens and we named him Cheech, so I'd have to recommend Cheech and Chong. But you may not find that quite as endearing as our family did :)

My mom and brother raise crested geckos for fun. They have 20 of them because they can't find good enough homes for their "babies". Anyway, they have some unusal names you are free to use: Goat, Horse, Underbite, Flea, Jack, sabastion...that's all I can think of right now, but go crazy and have fun!!! There are no right lizard names, only fun ones. I think you'll have a lot of entertainment if you let yourself. They sure do.
