to late to rename my tort?

[gamera154]

i have been wondering wether to rename gamera or not what do you think

 

[dannylozano10]

Do you like the name gamera?

 

[gamera154]

yes

 

[dannylozano10]

Well why change it? Unless it doesn't fit the gender of your tort.

 

[gamera154]

meh ive just been wondering about it

 

[dannylozano10]

Oh ok well in reality it is up to you if the one I'm getting is a girl it's gonna be Darwin and if male I think I'll name it speedy

 

[dannylozano10]

Sped or squirt lol

I think that what dannylozano10 said makes a lot of sense. If you like your tort's name, why change it? What's making you think of changing it suddenly? if I may ask.

I get all of my pets 2nd hand and I always think that I can change a name and I never do.
Though we do use a lot of nicknames.

If you've decided to change your tort's name, then you can find names for pets on the net; unless you already have a name in mind.

It's extremely unlikely your tortoise knows its name so no, it's not too late to change it.

I highly doubt the tortoise will mind

I like it.
Because It is unusual.
So many of the same names keep getting used!

I once named one of my tortoises, dog

Fun story: When I first got my tortoise (I was unable to verify at the time I picked her up) I went with the name Eggbert, because I wrongly assumed that the tortoise I would be picking up would be male. Anyway, I guess that idea was stuck in my head, cause I never bothered to actually check when we got her (she was in a travel carrier). So the whole ride home and for 2 days as she adjusted I just called her Eggbert. Finally when she became more comfortable with me handling her, I checked and sure enough female. I kept the name Eggbert cause she actually responds to it and I would feel bad for tricking her! I think it's not bad, anyway. If you like the name go for it!

I named my rabbit Pansy before I found out he was male.

 

[gamera154]

I'm keeping his name the same I like it it just felt kinda weird at first because all of our pets names end in y

 

[ZEROPILOT]

I have a female tortoise named Julio. But she doesn't seem to mind.

Bob already had his name when I got him. So I didn't care, but I don't usually name my tortoises or turtles. They all respond to "here's breakfast"
