My lizards had babies and i kept two of them. One had a white stripe (v unusual..others in that species don't) over his nose so i called him Krishna because of Hare Krishnas having the painted nose markings. I lived above a post office. Most of my lizards have responded to name calling so one day i was calling 'Krishna! Krishna'!
Later i went into the post office and was surprised to see the usual staff absent ( a husband and wife team). They had their nephew covering for them..i introduced myself as the girl from upstairs and he said he heard his name being called earlier ..yep you've guessed it.. Krishna! and i was far too embarrassed to admit i'd named a pet a rather sacred name, so i just mumbled something and left rather quickly Blush

Our guinea pigs are brothers called Phil and Grant. One's a bit porkier, less good looking, pink eyes. The other's marginally cuter, dark, and a bit stupider. They squabble. Then they make up. They take turns to be the more dominant one...

Blackjack the rabbit turned out to be Blackjill.

One of our ex-bat hens is called Nutty Nora (she had a traumatic start in life), and the cockerel is a miniature psycho called Fluffy. And not to forget Jethro the donkey, who says Aw-Eee instead of Eee-Aw :)

My cat is called Disraeli. The fish are variously called things like Arthur and Bernard, for no good reason except that it amuses me.

SummerRain · 10/02/2011 11:31

I had a goldfish called Imhotep after the Egyptian god of medicine.

Except we could never remember what he was called due to inhaling too much 'medicine' ourselves.

I miss my misspent youth Wink
