Finally have names for my leopards:
There's Garfield and his mate Arlene, who sadly died. And there was little Odie. Those are from comics.
Then there's Samsara, who is one of the three similar looking. Her I can tell apart though, so the two others are called after the twins Castor and Pollux. Also from mythology comes the currently smallest slug Maitrī.
And lastly there is Ceres and was Neptune, after astronomical objects.

My first GALS was called Brian and my sister's was Ivy. They both died suddenly, when I was a teenager.
Our current GALS are called Penny and Farthing.

I named two of mine Gino from the Jackie Collins book I was reading, and Wesley whilst my partner seemed to find the names Michelle ( get it my shell not really funny but that's men for you) and speedy but I wanted to call it Shirley.

My two fulicas are Gary and Doug. Gary after a snail on youtube having a shower. Such a common name, lol. Doug because he is often seen half dug down in the soil. I have three new a. marginata ovum whom I haven't named yet. |

Mine is named Humphrey, because a friend suggested it sounds like a "snail-y" name.

The snails here are named
Zorst, Seilide, which is Irish for snail, + about 60 Cepaea hortensis and Cepaea nemoralis that are unnamed bar being called the snailys.
Gary(RIP),Prowler(RIP),flower(RIP), all went to the big cabbage patch to soon due to old age or problems that they came here with.

What's with all the snails named Gary, btw? Some pop culture reference that I've missed I assume?

My Rodatzi's name is Dozer, and the White Jade is still unnamed. Two of the aspersas are named Bob and Michelle (my friends's idea), and none of the Ceapea are named I've also got 3 Albino Retics coming tomorrow I'll have to think of names for! |

I don't own any snails yet, but I have a slug named Sluggy (super original name, I know) and am planning on getting a H. pomatia and grove snail. I'm thinking about names, and one will be Captain Jack Sparrow, but not sure about the other.  I used to have a snail named Basil. |
