Sorry to ask something not related to this thread, but how do I post on my own I'm fairly confused. Thanks!

You select where you want to post, let's say, General Tortoise discussion. Then there should be an option to create your own thread? If not, select something in general discussion, and then there should be the option at the top of the screen. It's a red button.
And I think the name should be "Miss Howell". ;) That's the name I'm planning to give my future Aldabra.

If you want to stay with the "Russian theme", here are few Russian words you could use: Katyusha, Kalinka, Narodna, Krassavitza, Perestroyka, or Cherepakha

I know, but how unique! Btw, Cherepakha (spelled phonetically) means-turtle, not sure if there is another word for tortoise, in some languages the distinction is made by adding adjective describing habitat (land or water)
