Well, that got me thinking....there have been some interesting names on
this list.  What is the story behind them.  I wanted my names to have
"meaning" for each personality but a couple just looked like their name.
Here's my list....
 
Snoopi -- was a snoop, had to investigate everything (of course, she
was my first ferret.  i soon learned that this name could apply to ALL
ferrets)
 
Fifi -- was a very proper princess-type, wiped her chin after every bite,
walked on her tippy toes like a dainty flower, deserved a Foofoo to match
but when i went to find him for her......
 
Moose -- had lung problems from birth that made him have to breathe
through his mouth constantly, reminded me of a sterotypical dumb jock
so a "frat" name suited him
 
Jiggy -- has an ear shaped like a jigsaw puzzle piece (and loves to
"dance" with me)
 
Lily -- loves to just sit in water, like a water lily
 
Timmy -- came to me with that name, would come stumbling out during
certain episodes of South Park as he heard Tim-may repeated over and
over and over....
 
Gabby -- finally a ferret who makes those noises I've read about, my
first talker
 
Tinkerbell -- can't resist anything that jingles, any and every bell is
HER bell
 
Spot -- not quite a panda, not quite a blaze but has two distinctive
spots on his head, also follows me around like a dog and "spot" is a
good old fashioned dog name
 
Saupa -- big roly-poly albino boy, "saupa" is an Inuit word meaning
"heavy, dense snow"
 
Anana -- dainty, pure white albino girl, "anana" is an Inuit word
meaning "beautiful" and she is!
 
Monkey -- climbed curtains and clung to them looking like a monkey in a
tree
 
Junior -- looked identical to Gabby and knew it!  followed Gabby
everywhere learning how to be the second generation of trouble
 
Pinky and the Brain -- pair who came to me with these names.
personalities were actually backwards according to the cartoon
 
Leroy -- well, he just LOOKS like a Leroy.  :-)
 
Anyone else?
