What a pretty turtle!!

I'm glad the ear surgery went well.



As for names I like to name mine based on circumstances.

Shell E is the only one I did not name.. she got that name because she was wild, she was broken, I took her to a vet who agreed to treat her for no fee if I paid for supplies needed.

The vet's receptionist named her only because she needed a name to put on the records. She said Shelly? I said ok but spell it Shell E so it'll be a little bit different.

When I took in Hope after ear surgery she was named that because we hoped she'd live.

Charity was a charity case

Janie came this close()to meeting with calamity

Hobo was the bum who came here every year for handouts

Kibbles came close to being a milkbone

Chip had a broken piece of shell hanging off him that looked like a tortilla chip.

Fate brought Destiny our sulcata to our door.



Circumstances named them all except for Shell E so that's one method of finding a name.

Another method is watch them for a while & name them based on behavior.

My mud turtle scoots along the bottom of his tank, he's Scooter.

My pac man frog is yellow & they have such a sunny disposition. (lol) his name is Sunny.

Good luck choosing a name.
