A gecko is a mid size lizard that belongs to the Gekkonidae family. These animals live in warm climates. There are approximately twelve hundred species of geckos around the world. Today people are becoming more and more interested in having a gecko as a pet but they are finding it hard to find gecko names for their pets. People often name their pets because they look like something they know or they have a favourite name, but when it comes to a gecko it is not as easy.

The name that you pick for your gecko will depend on whether it is a boy or a girl. Just like with other pets the name has to let people know the sex of the gecko. One of the most common leopard gecko names is a Leo. This is simply a shortened version of the name of the gecko. The Leopard gecko is a spotted gecko that is native to warm climates such as that of Iraq. If you are looking for a single name then it should be easy to select a name. If the gecko moves quickly then you might want to call it Speedy.

You take your time and get to know your pet before trying to find a name for it. This will allow you to find out what kind of animal your gecko is or if it has specific characteristics that will give you a hint for the name. A gecko is unusual animal so maybe it might be cool to give your gecko an unusual name as well. How about something like Razz or Tazz? Think of weird names and pick one. This will give your gecko character. Other people think of their favourite cartoon characters and name their geckos after that. For example if your favourite cartoon was the Flintstones then you might consider naming your gecko Barney or Fred. If you have a female gecko you could call it Wilma or Betty.

Pets' names should also reflect the personality of the owner as well. If you are the type of person who is shy then owning a gecko with an unusual or weird name might not be the best fit for you. You want to have something that you are comfortable and happy with. The easiest thing to do is think of where the gecko originally came from to help you pick a name. You could possibly then pick a name from that part of the world for your pet. If you name your pet based on where he or she is from then you will never forget about the origin of the gecko family.

Naming a pet is one of the hardest things that anyone has to do. You are always searching or the perfect name no matter what your pet is. Naming a gecko is not an easy task but you if you take your time and think of a name that suits your gecko and you then you won't have much problem finding a great name.
