I'm not gonna lie that is a really awesome name. Very interesting.

That's taking snakes as a hobby to a whole 'nother level lol.

In keeping with the theme I call my little girl Princess Odanata. Odanata being genus name for dragon flies.

I wanted to name my son Bufo but the wife(now ex) didnt let me. nor did she allow Daniel Jack(for my poison of choice)or Beck Guinness. Heck, she wouldn't even let me name him Little Nappy Headed Ho. no wonder we're no longer together. Howie

Glad to hear that she is doing well, Shannon. That is an awesome name, really a pretty name for a girl.

I wanted to name my son Gaigeae, but my wife wouldn't go for it!

I wasn't having the greatest of days and was looking to escape in the forums for a bit. Your post put things into perspective. She's lovely and I'm glad she is doing well thanks in no small part from having a Dad like you.

very cute kid Shannon, great name also. I recall Haast naming his daughters with cobra names; one was Hannah and the other I think was Naja.
5 girls and I'll bet the dog is female too.

No,it hasn't happened yet and I am sure you could.Just contact her mother on the bottom of the poster.It wasn't my intention for the post but I know that every donation helps.

Thanks Shannon
