Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I have noticed of late a lot of people naming their reptiles after norse gods and the like...........................how many of you name your animals from mythology?

I name most my reptiles after mythological figures. I think I do this because I am fascinated by the history and stories of mythology. So it carries over into my other hobbies such as retiles.

I THINK THE only one have from "the gods" is Isis b/c i liked the name and i have a cat Named Xis (like exes) and it kinda rhymed. i know i'm a dork. but most of the other names of my critters i think the name is funny at the time...but grow on me eventually...
