I just secured another male flame from Tina (Garterchick) and figured we could have some fun. Just say the name of this contest 3 times fast:D

Magma is already taken, and I ask that we do not use any names related to volcanic activity.. Unless it's a dilly! (Lava is too obvious)

The new snake is a male, and the new name does not need to be an English word. Sure I could look up "god of fire" in Greek, but letting everyone share thoughts is more fun. Get clever, be creative!

So every contest needs a prize, right?? so the winner will be chosen as follows, I will not receive my new flame until around the 20th of July.

Most of you are on here every day, but since it is summer, I know some will be going here and going there, so I will accept suggestions until 18th of July. Then whatever name makes me smile the most, applies for the life of the snake. In the event of a tie, I will post both and let you all vote:)

I will show the most favoritism to names that imply, hot/fire/flame/red or molten

Since these flames are going to be breeding studs, "Sired by Magma" sounds cool, so I'd like the other boy to have an impressive name as well.

As a bonus, I will post a portrait of any one of your snakes with full credit given to you on the dances with reptiles home page for a minimum of 2 months.

Have fun....

Ho-Masubi (Japanese) Fire God

“Although destructive by his very nature, and feared by mortals, the fire god is not evil and does what he can for mankind, providing them with light, warmth, a means of cooking, and the heat for forging weapons and tools. If the people affront him by neglecting his worship, however, he has been known to burn cities to the ground.”

Tina is back from vacation, and so far Masubi is in the lead, I was leaning toward Vesuvius, really leaning....

Until Masubi got mentioned..

My recent Infernalis just got named Inferno (Too easy)

Thanks for all the great ideas, I will save the suggestions, since red is my favorite color, I probably am not done with red Garters any day soon.:D

(snort) Whatever. But you can't get any better than the MAGMA that destroyed two cities/civilzations. Vesuivisus = the epitome, the master, the best.

Sour grapes here... Slinking off feeling cheated outta the bestest name in the WORLD.

(I do believe I'll get over it... [sniffle...])

LOL!!!

GO MASUBI! (Dumb name! LOL!!!)

Congrats to whomever came up with that name.

Wow my head hurts. I am trying to keep up. (just spent 2 hours feeding neonates, and have more to do. including an aquarium change over. and the only fish I do are the feeders! & a polliwog tank.):eek:

So here are the snakes that do have names in no particular order.

Magma, Masubius, Melanie, Inferno, snowflake, Cheeto, sky, Oreo, Limon,

Diana - Goddess of fertility
Lurch - My new Butlers garter, get the connection??

Xena , Casper, Athena, Princess, spot, Cy, Carmella, Greeny, slithers, Jr., Mutt, Cain, Rusty Wallace, and a whole bunch I'd rather not name yet.

around this house, a name indicates PERMANENCE :eek:

Dekay, here's another male Butlers name for you, "Alfred."

Don't know why but just came to me when I was thinking o'something else.

infernalis
07-20-2008, 05:08 PM
Again you scare me MK, we discussed both Alfred and Lurch.

Since this baby is the tiniest most delicate little garter I have ever seen, Lurch had more irony and sarcasm to it:cool:

Garter_Gertie

Too funny! Yeah, Lurch.

Ah, uummmm... It wasn't Lurch, was it? He's still okay?

What a pretty male you have there!!! Have you gotten him yet?

infernalis
07-21-2008, 09:01 AM
He will be here tomorrow:D Woo hoo, talking to Tina about in now...

He has a "Buddy" but I have to be careful not to get Magma and Masubius mixed up, really careful.

Magma has a recessive Albino gene (Het albino) so he will be mated with "Snowflake" our albino "snow" garter, hopefully to get at least one albino flame.

Masubius will be mated with Melanie the Melanistic garter (all black)
