Help me name my rat!

awdity · 10-07-2004, 01:12 AM

I'm adopting a pair of rats in a little over a week and have a name picked out for one, but can't come up with a name for the other. I'm a huge Jim Henson fan and have a few muppet names picked out. I want something kind of oddball and original. Nothing related to the rats' colors, nothing cutesy, and no "twinsies!" names. Other than that, I'm open to suggestions! Help!!

Oh yeah, rat #1 is named Short Round.

I'm going with the Dave Attel style naming and suggesting, "Pizzapussysanta". Even someone doesn't like rats, they'll at least like some part of the lil guy's name.

Gobo, from Fraggle Rock

Gobo was my least favorite. Boober was #1, followed closely by Wembley. I just couldn't see naming a rat Boober.

Oh yeah, I forgot Lew Zealand.

Plus they're boys.

I like Roland! I think that so far it's come down to Basil, Telly, and Nigel (think Spinal Tap). Now Roland's in the running.

OMG zaq I had the weirdest dream last night and you were in it. You saw me naked and I got really mad and kicked a soda can like 100 yards across a parking lot, then my ex best friend and his boyfriend showed up wearing baseball uniforms and for some reason we were over at two supermodels' house when I got naked and flipped out.

I was also dating Jude Law in the dream (which was lovely) and he had a german oompah band sing to me at the mall.

Bow & Arrow
Gin & Tonic

Basil would be good and if you want to keep the Farty Towels theme why not call it Manuel.
