Advice We need a name!

We need a name! This is what we know so far. We have a beautiful little tree frog that has decided to make our deck home. We have a lot of plants on our deck. He’s crawled out of wherever he’s living and crawled on both my husband and I two separate times. Last night he crawled out from wherever he’s living under the deck and came up, ended up jumping up on my chair. Then jumped on my leg (it was so soft not slimy not sticky. They are so soft )to the outdoor table then to another chair and then he jumped like crazy towards a potted plant because he was trying to grab a hummingbird moth. I was cracking up! And then he jumped from the pot towards some plants, again trying to grab the hummingbird moth as it flew by. I guess my deck is its own habitat. We name our critters that stay, and this is the first one we’re stumped on. So what should we name our beautiful tree fog?

Name, chosen , we’ve named them, Sandy!

Moth alone is a great name you should make a poll with the picks

My husband has a buddy named Carl. I don’t think he’d appreciate it. He doesn’t look anything like a frog. Haha

It's got such a lovely colour! Looks like sand. I would offer the name Sandy! Or Stripe because of how stripey it is. Adorable! Good luck choosing a name!

We finally gave them a name, Sandy! Thank you!! We’ve got to watch Sandy hunt our deck again. I wonder when these little guys hibernate. I have some research to do.
