Help me find a cute name for her!

First off...
What a little beauty!
I like the names: bean, Pansy, dandi and Tiny

 

[MPRC]

I never get to name my pets because they are always pre-owned. congrats on the new baby, she is adorable.

 

[Big Charlie]

There is the obvious - Cherry. Red, Berry...
I like Peanut.

One very beautiful tortoise right there. What about Charlie the Cherry-head (very gender neutral) ?

 

[Pearly]

This is going to be one stunning tortoise, with all kinds of marbling! Wow! You did very well on your selection! As for the names, I'm horrible with them. I usually name my pets by their personal characteristics. I don't know what your's like but she's definitely a Luke-r! (looker)

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Let me be the first to ask that you not name it Shelly or Sheldon.
Thank you.

 

[Kasia]

Polish bit from me: Zenek or Zosia

 

[Taylor T.]

Pebbles maybe?

Thank you.

but my kids named our RF Shellie! She was gonna be Miss Piggy at first (voracious appetite) but they had settled for Shellie. I kinda like it, think the name fits her. She looks/acts like a Shellie

Polish bit from me: Zenek or Zosia

Zosia to moje coreczka! Piekne imie! I love ZENEK for a boy! Or BRONEK or ANTEK, FRANEK. Or Zyta, Danka, Helka (we call our Shellie "Shelka") etc, or OMA (granny in german) or OPA (grandpa in german)... Many good names!

 

[Cheryl Hills]

I don't know about a name but she sure is cute. Love the coloring and pronounced red,"cherry head" . Sure makes her stand out.

 

[Rue]

There are many good name resources on the web...or you can find a name you like from a favourite book or story character, celebrity, place you visited while on vacation, etc.

If I let anyone else ever name one of my pets...I'd now be riding a horse called Fencepost.

So you might want to make a short list of names YOU like, and settle on one of those.

 

[Sandy Martinez]

"Mari" because she's a sweet cherry (maraschino cherry)

Help me find a cute name for her!

That is one colorful Brazilian you have there.
S/he is gorgeous. Colorful tort requires an apt name. Picasso. .

I like to name my tortoises after the country they come from. So my rescued leopard tortoise is named Cincinnati (rescue came from there).

So you could use Salvador for a male, or Brasilia, Sao Paulo, Curitiba, Belem, Rondonia, etc.

Mark relates an interesting story about how the cherry head got its name in the Tortoise Library: http://www.tortoiselibrary.com/species-information-2/chelonoidis/red-footed-cherry-head/

That's great Yvonne, but you have so many torts! It's little different for us hobby keepers of one or two. There's sort of pressure to make this name count, or something like that, be meaningful. I was have just recently finishe watching Borgia series on netflix and if I got a pair now, would probably name them Cesarè and Lucretzia just because I love that part of history and italian italian names are gorgeous! Or... Sticking with south america you could go Less originally- Rio!
