An adopted monkey. I was thinking Arthur, Bertie or Monty. Any ideas?

Any ideas op?

Thelonius is brilliant! Grin

Cornelius.

He'd be bound for great things. And have a monocle.

LobsterQuadrille · 17/02/2017 06:07

He's a baby marmoset- I have no actual photo of him - it's more like one of those "sponsor a goat" things that Oxfam used to do, but this is an actual monkey rather than a theoretical one. Not in this country and I strongly disapprove of zoos to anyone who thought I really had a monkey! Thanks for all the ideas. I rather like Cornelius although I already have a cat called Cordelia ,,,,,

If you can't be pretentious when naming a monkey, when can you be? Grin

I love Conrad and Thelonius.

Monkey world in Dorset do amazing work with primates and chimps. I really urge you if your keen to do an adoption to look to their page.

MrsJayy · 17/02/2017 09:06

We adopt from Monkey world i love it there. Cornelius is a fine name for a marmoset 😊

ErrolTheDragon · 17/02/2017 09:10

I suppose Marmaduke is a bit too obvious for a marmoset?

William (infinite monkey theorem) - if people don't know why, they won't think your pretentious, so you can indulge in monkey naming stealth pretention Wink Grin
