Current Naming Theme: Moths & Butterflies
Naming rats is never easy, but it’s an important part of our record keeping and lineage tracking. To stay organized, we use themed naming systems for each group. Our current theme is butterflies and moths, so the names you see right now are inspired by real species. For example, the rat named Isabella takes her name from the Isabella tiger moth.
While we use these names internally, you’re always welcome to change your rat’s name at any time, as these rats are too young to recognize these names as personal identifiers.
Sometimes the names are a little unusual, but they’re chosen with intention and care, just like the rest of the details that go into raising and placing our rats.
