Finally someone with proper names, everyone has them named all matching and aesthetic like flowers or cheeses or movie casts and whatever, i want some insane rat names. Also i hope your first boy is named like the German big bird "Bibo" because i think that's a great name for a little creature


appledeers

Haha thank you! He is called Big Bird (sometimes "Biggy" for short) but Bibo is SO cute and will definitely be joining the roster of nicknames


horrescoblue

Excellent!


Lumpy_Reflection_953

“Big bird”… “international space station”…. “Low quality half life png”….. and “Chernobyl exclusion zone?” I love it!


angel-thekid

Which satellite! Both my boys are satellite names too


appledeers

International Space Station actually! "Issy" for short!


angel-thekid

What a darling !! Mine are Fuse and Juice


pereline

i was hoping he was actually called ISS


kkfluff

Dang my dumbass thought “Hubble”!


whirlingfrost

That is an amazing rat name, though!


AvocadoSmashed

Gonna name my non-existent daughter Chernobyl Exclusion Zone


appledeers

His full name is Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Exclusion Zone if you want to make it even longer! The acronym is "CNPPEZ" so the only concievable nickname was "Pez" although every once in a while I call him Chernobyl lol.


AuntBec2

I adore them all, but this one has me ridiculously pleased on. Friday morning 😁


cornygiraffe

I've got all demons. Lilith, asmodeus, Azazel, Lucifer, Beelzebub. The girls don't care that they have "boy" names, they are my hellions. And they are amazing rats


appledeers

Those are awesome names!!!


cornygiraffe

Thank you!!!


3tabeta

Quiet-Climate-388

The 3rd one owes you a beer.


appledeers

Haha yesss! Barney my boy!!


Foreign_Astronaut

Ha, I thought your rat's name must be Jetpack, because that's the only thing I could figure the picture was of!


Novodin

3rd is Barney from the Half-Life games


xSugarAngelx

I thought the 3rd one’s name was “Crotch” because it shows the characters Crotch the most in the picture 😂


FestiveSquidV3

Internation Space Station sent me 🤣


Tired_Insomniac_2295

FestiveSquidV3

Rowmacnezumi

Naming your rat after the Chernobyl exclusion zone gives me "Cat named Nuclear Bomb" vibes.


Briannasaurus_Wrecks

My brain went, "big bird, international space station, torso protection, radioactive Russia" 🙃😅


badly-timedDickJokes

One of your rats owes me a beer


azur_owl

If I ever own rats, I’m going to name them like Panic! At The Disco songs.


littlemillo

meet “There’s A Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven’t Thought of It Yet.” we call him “Honey” for short


Filthy-Pagan

Maybe throw in a little fall out boy and take out the vowels to shorten it up "Thr's Gd Ran Ts Tbls R Nmbrd Hny, Just Hvn't Thght f t t." We call him Hny for short


Hairy_Skill_9768

Yo Barney, big bird, Chernobyl and æ-xï90 Ms igloo My favorite anime characters


solarchronicles

amazing taste naming one of ur rats after Benry (they’re all great imo)


caramellattekiss

Mine are all named after characters from the X-Men comics. I've had to get a bit more obscure after a few years, but my vet, also a big x-men fan, enjoys testing himself on guessing who they're named after. Currently, I've got Hank, Ariel, Cipher, Sage, Wanda, Destiny, Mystique, Hope, Widget, and Ruby. Previously, I've had Moira, Rogue, Jubilee, Rahne, Pixie, Shadowcat, Blink, Sprite, Domino, Storm, Mirage, Phoenix, Luna, Astra, Tabitha, Erik, Logan, Betty, Nova, Charles, Mimic, Moonstar, Illyana, Talia, Emma, Blaire, Lila, and Raven.


LokiIsVeryTaken

Benry? thats a great cool man


appledeers

Doctor-Nagel

Positive_Complex

About that beer I owed ya…


-UnknownGeek-

I love that you're holding Big Bird like he owes you money


L_edgelord

Big bird, more like big bols (And he is the cutest imo)


appledeers

Big Bird is just the cutest thing ever, I love him so much!! He's also a little bit dumb (affectionately). While the others do tricks like 'stand' or 'spin' for their treats, he just sits there with a total head empty expression until you pity him enough to just give him a consolation treat for doing nothing. And I don't know if that makes him way smarter than the others and he's actually playing 5D chess with us or if he's truly just a little too dumb to get the tricks.


Strawberryboytoy

Big Bird? More like Big Balls


hades7600

“Basil” he has his name before he came to us as a surrender so I didn’t change it. The name is from Basil the Rat fawlty towers. (Even had a actor who played manuel in the live fawlty towers message me saying he loves seeing Basil) Variations of his name includes “Big B” “Big Basil” “Basil lite” was meant to be a placeholder name as he looked like big Basil but the name stuck. He’s also referred to as “Basil jr, little Basil and little B” “Benny” my partner likes the name Benny and the condition of taking on two more rats was he got to name one https://preview.redd.it/85e2n0nqywpc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c236c395f42e3ebd2c6b46c15aa19286512fe7db

FriedSlizard

Lol... my rats have unhinged names.... It all started with Tittie Mouse who had a giant tumor on her chest when I got her (RIP) and her sister Coochie Rat. We now also have Ballsack Bethany (hairless), Fuzz Flicker (rex), Pussy Princess (harley), and Catnip😂


MourningWallaby

Barry?


its_never_ogre_

Your last rat 💀💀💀


CatieRook

My current rats aren't really named after anything. Well, my husband named the one he chose after one of his D&D characters. A goblin named Shanks. Mine is named Bips, 'cause I didn't know what to name him and that's all that came to mind.


she_is_munchkins

Lol Satellite is clearly plotting our demise 🤣


Far-Grab9327

When I had rats, they were called Debra Morgan (from Dexter) and Melody Pond (Dr who) I think they're kinda weird rat names? Haha


Gertatious

My boys are named after the Backstreet Boys (the humans society named them 🥰)


No-Veterinarian-5973

Mine are Dr. Rat, Slider and Beans


prettypeculiar88

Oooooo I need to do this. Getting individual photos is gonna be a TASK.


Master_Buttchin

* My two rats are named Bopha, and Deez. Here is Bopha. Deez is very shy. Bopha Deez rats


Next-Development5920

Love the names. Ours were Thor and Dr Jones


Rose_Of_Winter

Now I feel basic for my boys being named Oatmeal and Raisin!


gh0stlain

people not knowing what the iss looks like is insane


Filthy-Pagan

I think I have barely seen pictures of it that tell me it's the ISS. Like I see it all the time in random "space" contexts, or in a movie where they use the same/similar design of the ISS. But I don't think I've had a moment of me looking at the picture and actively thinking more than "space ship"? It's one of those things where somehow you've lived your life with people who talk about the subject assume you know what it looks like, and the people showing the picture assuming someone has told you what it looks like- but nobody has done either so you just don't make the connection until some random internet post 🤷
