Brief Guide On How To Find The Best Iguana Names
For those who feel lost when picking a name, this short guide is for you.
#1 Boy, Girl, Or None
A lot of owners start with the list of male, female, or unisex names.
It does an excellent job of helping you cut down the list of names to pick from, but it’s not required.
We have these lists below as well.
Iguanas’ gender is difficult to tell at a glance, so if you loved a girl’s name and had a male iguana, it’s OK to name it something else too.
Trust us; the iguana won’t care.
#2 What Are You Interested In?
This is your chance to use a name from one of your favorite books or shows.
Your spouse may not let you name your child Spike, but it’s the perfect name for an iguana pet.
Think about the things you like in life.
- Movies
- Books
- TV shows
- Celebrities
- Music
Think about the names used in those areas and make a list.
Pick a name from the list if you want.
We have examples in our lists below.
Choosing a name from something you love is a good way to build an early bond with your pet.
#3 Personality Names
When you name a child, there are some names which end up just fitting someone’s personality.
As a pet owner, you have some luxury not open to children.
Some owners wait to name their pets until they get to know them a little more.
There’s no real rush naming them, so wait it out and see how they act.
When you do, some names may rise to the forefront based on their personality quirks.
It’s OK even to test out a few names before you settle on one.
The iguana won’t care, and neither should you.
#4 Appearance Qualities
This is an easier one for most to get behind.
Take a look at the color of your iguana and the appearance of its exterior.
Pick a name inspired by this.
Iguanas keep their same colors their entire lives so this option will be good forever.
Keep this in mind as you look at our lists of names next if you feel overwhelmed.
For green iguanas, a lot of owners choose to follow the green theme.
If you end up with a blue iguana, you may want to go with the blue theme.
