help me name my tarantula *w/ video* - now with POLL

[MrDudeMan]

I need help naming my tarantula. It is a female pink toe (avicularia avicularia) and about 3.5" right now. She should grow to about 5" when she is a mature adult.

Here is a video - Text

She is very cool tempered. She doesn't like loud noises and will sleep in the palm of your hand.

Any ideas? I can't think of a suitable name for her.

Oh, and she is insanely fast.

I like cupcake and shelob. Some of the others are actually pretty good too. When I have about 10-15 good names selected, I'll start a poll and see if we can get some more votes.

Thats what I was thinking. I absolutely hate spiders, and he's just fiddling around with it like it's nothing.

OP has balls. Big ones.

Pink toes are very docile and won't bite unless you freak them out. A tarantulas first instinct is to run, not fight (hiss, spray hair, bite). Also, they have really soft hair and it feels funny when they are crawling around on your arm. They seem almost weightless because of the load distribution across their legs.

I've contemplated naming her Syringer...she would be the representative for all YAGTs.

I'd call her "The Hairy Sister"

 

[LeiZaK]

I voted Twizzler, but how about Charlotte?

 

[RaiderJ]

I named my Golden Knee Lachesis. Had to pick something strange for a tarantula!

I've been thinking about recording me handling her - put it on Youtube with the one where she eats a mouse

 

[eits]

how about "ugly" or "petunia"?
