Tarantula names?

[Livia]

Hey, I just got a tanzanian baboon sling and an OBT sling and was wondering if anyone has any interesting name ideas, thanks!

Oh zillions. What kind of names do you like? Serious, silly, tough, sweet, literary, cities, infectious diseases, types of mustaches....?

Depends upon your personal tastes, my T's for example are named in Elven or after spiders in middle earth. One of my friends calls his by just scientific names and another names them after types of rock.

My OBT's temporary name is Sass Master

I give mine names that relate to their personality, their looks, their heritage, if i can't find anything along those lines i go with famous namrs. I've got a B. Albopilosum named Elvis

Hmm.... an Orange Bitey Thing, huh? I always said that if I got a female of one of the species with attitude, I'd name her Lucrezia (after Lucrezia Borgia, of the infamous Italian Renaissance family), but then again, I'm partial to historical names.

When I think of Africa, a few things come to mind: Savannah; Dusk; Safari.... The possibilities are endless. Good luck!

Go with names that make you laugh when you hear or say them. Laughter is good.

My obt is named Lucifer, my G. Rosea Shelob, from lord of the rings. Behemoth is my LP, Odin is my B. Smithi, Alexi, B. Boehmi, named after Alexi Laiho, my favorite guitarist. And a lot more. So my names range from greek and nordic god names, to fantasy characters, to rock stars and the devil.

I went with unpleasant feelings for the 5 slings I got last week...

Panic (A. versicolor)
Terror (L. parahybana)
Despair (B. smithi)
Anguish (P. regalis)
Dismay (H. maculata)

I stopped naming all my pets at this stage, I call them by their scientific names.

I've got a couple of OBT slings that I like to call 'Terror' and 'Murder'. Their scientific name is PTERinochilus MURinus. Seems fitting.

Bob. They should all be named Bob.
