Got my first tegu! Whoohooo! Any ideas for a good tegu name?

I just love her so much. She's a cb '99 argentine black and white and about 3ft. She's flawless except for a rubbed nose. I've owned plenty of monitors in the past but always wanted a tegu and then I found her at Serpents Den here in pa and just fell in love. She's such a sweet heart, real calm and docile. I gotta think of a good name for her though, any ideas? Anywho, just wanted to share. The pics are crappy, she's much nicer in person.

I named mine Vito after Don Corleone, but I'm a big fan. I have a kingsnake named after Al Pacino also! You could always go with a traditional Argentinian name. I also like Latin or Greek names because they sound cool and can describe their personality. Its ultimately up to you!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

She is a beautiful girl!

I had the hardest time trying to pick a name for mine too, I looked at a whole bunch of names....I am a "matrix" fan, so I almost named mine morpheus....but then decided on "Amigo" which in spanish means friend. It was a good choice for him.

Good luck with the name search...

she IS very pretty! i'd name her "wednesday" after the little girl on adams family. (i have a redfoot named pugsly and a red tegu named stubbs since he's missing his front toes) good luck
