I usually give names to my pets that have meanings to them; they help to describe them in some way and they are usually in different languages. For example, I have a bearded dragon that I have named Shotatsu and his name means "little dragon" in Japanese. I have a blackline plated lizard that I have called Hinun (he-NOON) and his name means "spirit of the storm" in Native American. I named him this as a nice way of calling him a jerk, as he seems to enjoy frustrating me in every way he can conceive to do so.
I also have an eastern box turtle called Donoma and his name means "sight of the sun" in Native American. His shell markings are very brightly colored and eye catching and they sort of remind me of the sun shining through the trees of a dense forest.
I have a leopard gecko called Torin and his name means "thunder" in Gaelic. When I rescued him he was very sick with MBD and he fought so hard to live. He is definitely a mover and a shaker personality wise.
Finally, I have a male ball python called Trinity (it was originally thought that he was a she, but despite that the name still seemed to fit him), an ornate box turtle called Reptar (my stepbrother named her after the character from the cartoon Rugrats), and a florida river cooter called Atlas (after the Greek god of weightlifting and heavy burdens; he's a very masculine turtle, full of bravado and spunk.)

Just one reptile at the moment, a snapping turtle who went for about 40 years without a name. Then I stumbled on the perfect name for him, Dolcetto. Ask an Italian-speaking friend for a translation. A dictionary won't help you unless it includes word derivations.[Even the OED won't help.]

I had a leopard gecko named Velvet because she had a tummy that felt like velvet. I was 5 when I got her btw!
I have a gold dust corn snake named Aurelia, because it means gold in Latin or something.
