I am loving all the names in this thread! My RES is Sheldon, for obvious reason of having a shell, and also one my fave movies is the original "In Laws" with Peter Falk and Alan Arkin - - "Serpentine, Shel, Serpentine!" I am probably aging myself with that reference!!

I also have a cat named "Elephant" (he's gray, my niece named him when she was in a very "concrete" phaSe - she had a RES named "Green Apple")

and 3 dogs, Peetie, Copper and Henry

I'm new too.
I have a male RES named Sisqo... lets just say there was a very popular song in 1999 when I got him by Sisqo the musician...
Now that I'm a bit older, I kinda wish I hadn't named him that.
It fits him though. *shrugs*

My turtle's name is Sylar. He was an X-mas gift from a friend. When he gave him to me he said 'I got you a turtle & I named him Sylar'. It's after the bad guy on "Heros". I haven't told my friend but if Sylar turns out to be a "she" then I'm changing the name to "Pickle"!

Hello! My husband found our turtle this week. He saved him from being crushed in a dist. company yard, no where near water. The little guy is the size of a quarter and his name is 'Tyrone' for the Erika Badu song, 'Call Tyrone'...He already has a dynamic personality!!![/b]

[Elsa&Tank]

I named my Turt TANK, s/he's only a hatchling about 2"

[bananekiwi]

names of fruit.

my signature says it too but i have a four year old male RES named Floyd, a two and half year old female named Shelly, and a one year old YES called Baby...because she's my baby and i don't want her to ever grow up she's so cute. Floyd is the smart-ass defiant one, shelly is super shy. that's it for me for now but i hope to have more turtles in the future ^^!

My Yellow-bellied Slider hatchling is named FinnAgain.

I had first purchased a Red-eared slider and named him Finnegan. But got him home and he wouldn't eat and didn't seem to be adjusting well to his new home. After about a week I brought him back to the pet shop and they took him back and replaced him with a YBS that was a little bit older and he/she has been doing great since then.

Hence the Finn...Again

Ashlee, IDK why...

Hi i've recently joined... and my baby is probably 4-5 months not too sure. His name is SQUIRTTLE <3

[Soze82]

Hi I am new. We named our turtles King Boo and Koopa! Lets just say we have been playing a lot of Mario Kart lately!!

[BullDog]

Wow, I've been here for nearly two years but never posted my turtle's names!
(Not that I haven't mentioned them enough )

Anyhow, my first RES was called Speedy, because he was so fast!!! About a year later, he got renamed as Ralpheal (wit da awsum spelin!) I guess because it fit him more, and I loved TMNT. He has been known as Ralph (pronouced "Raff") ever since.

My new turtle took me about a week to name. She was full grown when I got her, so I wanted to get a name that fit. Then I noticed how blue her eyes looked. That lead me to think: Ol' blue eyes? Sinatra? Frankie! It just really seemed to fit her ^_^
