Principle of choosing a name
Turtles are a very broad concept.
These comrades inhabit almost all corners of our planet. They live in seas and oceans, in jungles and swamps, in deserts and rivers. And if you think that the choice is limited to the red-eared turtle or trionics, then we are forced to dispel this myth. As pets, both 400 gram land babies and 900 kg giants are kept in private zoos. But both our smallest and largest pets need a nickname. Where to start choosing a name for your turtle?
It's probably worth finding out if you're having a boy or a girl. And you shouldn’t trust the seller with this for one simple reason - not every turtle’s gender can be found out while it’s still small.
The most common pets to keep in an apartment are:
- Pond slider;
- European marsh turtle;
- Chinese Trionix;
- Central Asian turtle.
Although about 40 species are kept as pets in captivity.
Gastronomic nicknames
Since turtles spend a significant part of their lives eating, these pets can be named after fruits and vegetables:
- Cloudberry is a sunny mountain berry.
- Coco is a coconut, a “hairy” fruit with white flesh.
- Damson is a small, tart fruit grown in Asia.
- Dates are very sweet dried fruits.
- Cranberry is a cranberry, a healthy sour berry that grows in swamps.
- Dragonfruit is a dragon fruit, an exotic delicacy with pink “scales”, white flesh and small black seeds.
- Durian is a spiny oval fruit with creamy flesh.
- Feijoa is a green guava fruit.
- Goji is a red berry popular in China.
- Elder Berry - Elderberry; The berry is bluish, black in color.
- Gooseberry is a gooseberry, a yellowish, reddish or green berry.
- Grape - grapes.
- Highbury is a fruit that is as sweet as honey.
- Jackfruit is a tropical tree with milky juice.
- Jambul is an evergreen tropical plant that produces plum-like fruits.
- Josta Berry is a cross between gooseberry and blackcurrant.
They named him Grape:
What not to call a turtle
The pet is unlikely to get used to such a nickname, and the owner may have difficulties. Also, do not overestimate the mental abilities of a reptile. Of course, some of them are capable of exhibiting persistent conditioned reflexes aimed at obtaining food or attention, but the reaction to a nickname is more of an exception to the rule. His character largely depends on how you behave. But for a turtle to give love, it is not enough to choose a beautiful name, you need to love it and constantly take care of it.
You finally made up your mind and bought yourself a charming turtle, while listening to my recommendations and preparing properly. And they even transported her to her place of residence as needed. Look at her, smile and understand that now she needs to be called something! But as? I immediately remember the phrase of Captain Vrungel from the cartoon: “As you name the ship, so it will sail.”
Today we will figure out what to call a turtle. Let's talk separately about how to name a girl turtle and how to name a boy turtle. For starters, let's talk about what I named my red-eared slider.
I'll give you a whole list of names and even a short recommendation. Again a whole bunch of useful knowledge from me. When you don’t want to think long about the turtle’s name, you can call it by any human name, as many do. There live in the world turtle girls named Bertha and Karen, Lina and Tina, Tonya and Sonya, Frosya and Marusya, and boys Mark and Max. Yasha and Shurik and many others.
With the help of a name, you can elevate your pet to the level of its famous relative. If you don't know what to name a baby turtle, name her after the world's oldest turtle, Advaita, who is believed to have lived for over two hundred years. An equally famous name is Timothy, the former mascot of British warships, or Tui Malila, who is included in the Guinness Book of Records.
If we remember the male turtles, at one time the name of Kiki, who weighed more than two hundred kilograms and lived 146 years, became famous throughout the world. You can name the boy's turtle the same as the name of the most famous bachelor of the tortoiseshell family, namely Lonesome George.
What else can you call turtles?
If you want an aura of mystery and mystery to reign around the name of your ward, remember the names of the ancient goddesses of Greece and Rome. Who can compare in beauty with the Roman Venus and the Greek Aphrodite, or in strength with Hercules and Hercules? Or maybe you want luck or victory to live in your home, then call the turtle Nika or Fortuna. Don't know what to name your boy's aquatic turtle? An excellent option would be the names of the gods Neptune, Poseidon, Nereus.
Since ancient times, many peoples, especially the East, have extolled this amphibious creature. In Iran, they believe that our planet was created by a snake and a turtle. The Australian Aborigines are convinced that she hatched it, and they call her Bedal. If you like this name, you can borrow it from the Australians, as well as from the Malays, Chinese and Indian peoples. The Malayan aquatic turtle, the creator of the world, was called Mansi. On the back of the Indian Kashyapa there is a sacred mountain, and the Chinese Ao holds as many as three mountains on which the Gods live.
Turtles are often named after movie or animated movie characters: Nemo, Odysseus, Raphael, Leonardo, Michelangelo. A land turtle can be called, as some owners do, by the names of objects, colors and even products: Donut, Bagel, Cupcake, Buttercup, Jasmine, Omelet, Tequila, Tartlet, Bun.
If your pet’s movements are majestic and graceful, then you need to name her accordingly. In this case, the royal male names Richard, Gustav, Voldemar and female names Abigail, Gertrude, Marianne, Josephine, Margot, Ophelia are suitable. Many people give their turtle the name of their favorite poet, writer or simply idol: Tom, Darwin, Jack, Billy. Woody, Voltaire, Harry, Marlene, Agatha, Julia, Tina, Charlie.
For us, the turtle has been and remains a symbol of good luck, support, fertility, longevity and an emblem of slowness. Let us remember the well-known motto “Hurry slowly!” Cosimo de' Medici accompanying a turtle, which has a sail on its back, inflated by the wind. Although turtles are not so slow in water. They are quite capable of reaching speeds of up to 35 km/h, with the exception of large specimens of these creatures. So why not give it the name Frigate or Tank, for its impenetrable armor?
God, what a name
The turtle, an animal that has gone through millions of years of evolution and cataclysms, deserves to be called a truly great inhabitant of our planet. And how can one forget such a niche in choosing a nickname for a pet as the Gods from various mythologies: Zeus, Hades, Persephone, Vishnu, Ganesha, Bast, Ra, Set, Horus, Hera, Vesta, Yar. Such a nickname will bring a lot of greatness to your turtle.
How to name a red-eared turtle, like a land turtle, how to name a girl turtle and how to name a boy turtle - you will each have your own answer to this question. Take a closer look at your pet, pay a little attention, make friends and become imbued with the pet’s character, and he will certainly hint to you who is in front of you, a god from the ancient Greek Olympus, or a subtle, graceful nature full of love and kindness. You choose names for the turtle together with them.
Exotic pets, such as turtles, are common and are easy to care for and maintain. It is very difficult to choose nicknames for your pets. There are different names for turtles that you can choose based on gender, personality traits, behavior, and so on.
How to come up with and teach a name
The most optimistic owners are confident that it is quite possible to teach this amphibian to respond to its name. You just need to repeat the name always with the same intonation: turtles perfectly capture the vibration of sound waves.
You need to talk to them often so that they remember the voice. And to this they also add the effect of a conditioned reflex, when the pet is called by name, wanting to feed it with its favorite “dish”. This process is quite long and requires patience, but if you want, you can achieve the desired result.
One of the turtle’s owners shared on the forum how clearly her pet, Button, responds to the sound of her name: she wakes up, even if she’s sleeping, and crawls up to the glass of the terrarium.
It’s even more interesting that the owner’s husband also affectionately calls his wife the turtle and “bites” on it: it crawls out of the shelter, stretches its neck towards him, greets him in a peculiar way, moving his paw along the glass, and crawls back. The mistress button is firmly convinced that her pet understands everything.
Experienced owners of red-eared turtles, in addition to vocal contact to accustom them to the name, recommend trying to experiment with other sounds, for example:
- You can train your pet to respond to the sound of a bell.
- bell,
- rhythmic tapping.
Turtles hear and absorb them well, and over time they will be able to “answer” quite adequately.
The exact opposite opinion is that all efforts in this regard are in vain, and it is impossible to train a reptile to respond to a nickname. The turtle is one of the reptiles whose “intelligence” is much more primitive than, say, mammals.
According to the third point of view, the amphibian most likely responds to intonation, and not to a specific name. The hearing of turtles perceives only the lower register of sounds, so it is clear that they are able to distinguish voices, but it is not at all a fact that they understand when they are called by name.
If we summarize all that has been said, the general conclusion will be this: provided that there is a “human” attitude towards the turtle, which consists not only in feeding and cleaning, but also in warm conversations with the pet, the turtle may well learn to distinguish between the owner and his voice, which constantly utters the same thing and the same name, and react to it.
And the animal has character
After you have purchased a pet, you will look at each other for some time.
He studies you, and you study him. And based on the findings, you can give your pet a nickname. Fast and agile people can become Shustriki or Zippers. The slow ones may be called Shusha or Blitz.
Aggressive - Butch or Chloe, but what to call a kind and tactile turtle, there are a lot of options: Aya, Berta, Bonnie, Busya, Vega, Zhuzha, Kappa, Mika, Molly, Nyusha, Vern, Gooch, Erik, Dino, Miki , Nigel, Puck, Sid and there is no end to them.

Shell color
Depending on the species, as well as the subspecies, a turtle can be distinguished by the color of its shell and its shade. There are types with a light or dark shade and a shade of wood color, like something in between the first two shades. Similar features can also be used in determining the name of a pet.
A certain pattern of the shell is also included here, which can also be used as the basis for the turtle’s nickname. For example, " Belyanochka"

Personality Traits

Although, there are still some recommendations. First of all, after bringing the turtle into the house, watch it (in this case, him) for a while. It is possible that some of your pet's characteristic habits will tell you what to name him.
For example, a fairly fast-moving boy can be called Sprinter, Champion, or somewhat playfully Wind; For a gracefully moving boy, the name Dancer, Twist or Waltz is quite suitable. Since both land turtles and waterfowl are kept at home, the name can be chosen based on this point: Admiral, Sailor, Boatswain, Nelson, Nemo, Barguzin, Karakum.
What else can you call a boy's turtle? Names in honor of favorite literary and film characters, poets and composers, actors and directors, cartoon characters, fairy tales, and Greek mythology are common. Here are some examples of names for boy turtles: Jack (from Jack Sparrow), Tom (from Tom Sawyer), Brahms, Beethoven, Darwin, Orpheus, of course, (especially if there are children in the house) and without names, many beloved cartoon ninja turtles - Michelangelo, Donatello, Raphael or Leonardo.
But these are all names of foreign origin. How can you name a boy’s turtle in Russian? Is it possible to find some original name? Yes, as much as you like! – Buttercup, Ponytail, Cupcake, Captain, Pirate. Some give their armored pets human names - Pashka, Vanyusha, Tolya, Misha, Nil, Kuzya.
Remember, no matter what name you choose for your pet, it should evoke only positive associations.

Based on ancestors
If you want to choose an unusual name, then you can name the turtle in honor of its ancestors. For example, you can name a turtle girl Samira. This turtle lived for more than 270 years, which is considered an absolute record, and only slightly did not survive to this day. The date of Samira’s death is considered to be 2006.
The second longest living turtle was called Advaita; she lived for 250 years and died in the last century.
Rounding out the trio of long-livers is a turtle named Tui Malila. Legends say that this reptile was given by James Cook himself in 1773 to none other than the Aboriginal leader on the island of Tonga. Tui lived for 193 years, and this reptile belonged to the species of Madagascar radiant tortoise.
The most famous name for a boy turtle is Timothy. Although it is worth noting that Timothy was a boy for only half of his life. In 1926, after the reptile was retired, it turned out that Timothy was a female, but they did not change the name of the turtle. Timothy became famous for being the mascot of the British Warship for almost a hundred years. Timothy lived to be 193 years old.
In second place is a boy named Kiki. This male lived for 146 years and died in the Paris Zoo in 2009.
We give the third place of famous males to the Lonesome George turtle. This male was a representative of elephant turtles, and with his death, the entire subspecies of these reptiles ceased to exist. The world's most famous turtle bachelor lived for about 100 years without leaving any offspring.
So, if you want your pet to have a long life, take a closer look at these famous names.
