MY b. albipilosum is named Pirate and my p. murinus (who is currently commuting to my place) is named Ninja and my P. regalis is Robot, because pirates and ninjas and robots are pretty much the three coolest things ever.

Just wanted to know if anyone eles named their tarantulas?

I was just wanting to know if I was the only person who names their tarantulas? I've got near 90 of them so all aren't named but a few are. Is this odd or a normal thing? If you do name them do you name just the females or males also?

I think at one point all most all us have named our T's but also most of us reach a point where we stop because of the number of T's we have.... Greg

All of my sexed T's are named, with one exception.
There's Rose Red and Cuddles, both P. murinus. Molly Grue is a G. aureostriata. Anna the G. rosea. An E. pachypus named Pearl. Tiny the L. parahybana. Last but not least, Garcia, a B. albopilosum. :)

As I might have said before, here on this board or possibly some other, I name all my T's because they are pets... in the sense that a pet is a family member.

My first (sold to me as a G.rosea) was named, as expected, "Chili". My last purchase, a good-sized Scolopendra subspinipes was named "Grim". I have a T.apophysis named "Bubbles", too!

No, you are not crazy. If you carry photos of your T's and show them as someone would show pics of their kids, well... ;)

I named the recent addition to my family the same day I got him. His name is Luke. At least I think it's male. Fraze says it might be but we're not sure.
