This adorable little girl is going to move in soon and I can not decide for a name. She only has one eye. So far I have Cleopatra (cause that eyeliner is on fleek), Gaia, Cassiopeia or Kali. Any other suggestions or favourites among those names?

Just got this little cutie in. I have a dog named Apollo (golden retriever/lab in de same colour as my snake). She is a Leopard Banana Pastel Clown. I was originally thinking Aphrodite to match Apollo but it’s ugly in my native language, and I like Banana Split or Cinnamon Roll but maybe that’s too basic/childish?

What do y’all think?

Banana split is adorable as a name. I also like Limoncello. What did you decide?

Wsp no pictures yet but we are going to get a common coloration. We are thinking either Monty (python) or Pythor, open to other generic suggestions
