Names

[tortgirl123]

Any good name ideas? I want to name my tort after something, maybe like a Greek God or after a character. Any ideas? : )

I always liked Hermes. Girl or boy? And a picture would help!!

 

[tortgirl123]

Still saving up for it, so not tort yet! Sorry I know pretty lame! I want a male though!

 

[compassrose26]

Not lame at all, I knew what I wanted to name mine before I got one! I live Greek names too, Percy is adorable and Atlas is cool too.

Apollo, Dionysus, Demeter, Uranus, Eros, Artemis, Heracles, Hera, Zeus, Leto, Ares, Hermes, Poseidon, Athena, Hades, Persephone, Cronus, Aphrodite, Hephaestus have fun picking one . My favorite one is Aphodite.

Oo I forgot about Apollo!

 

[tortgirl123]

We did the same thing and finally decided on Archimedes for our Greek, Archie for short.

I like naming all of my pets after Greek gods/goddesses. my cat's name is Poseidon, one of our dog's name is Zeus, and my new hermann's is Artemis. What I like to do, is look up the behavior and character of the names of gods, and of course what type of god they are so that the name has some meaning behind it. For example, what about Kronos? He is the titan of time, and tortoises live for a relatively long time.
