Ok guys, wanted to get the right time to have a NEW Contest and now that there is an Open spot, here it is. As some of you know, I have many Pleos, 17 at last count, and some of them are future Adoptees for here on the forums, I also like to fix up older Ugobe pleos and give them some "new life" and painting seems to be the way to go, at least for me. I have a couple I have painted and my favorite does not have a name, I just call her/ him, LIZARD Pleo because of the paint job he received. Well here are the rules...

1. You can enter as many times as you like, I would like to run this for a month so say till about October 10th which is a Monday, and it will end at Midnight 12:00 sharp PST. If for some reason I do not get any names I like, then I will extend it.
2. would like to have as many names as possible ,female and male. Also I like names in other languages, not just English, but if you give a name in Japanese for example, give me the meaning in English so I understand!

3. If Two people give me the same name, I will give the person who gave me the name first according to time here on the forums the win, but if it is within 5 minutes, there will be two duplicate prizes as I understand time differences, computer glitches and server technologly because two people can be writing also this post at the same time.
4. Prizes will be appropriate for all Pleo owners, Ugobe, Innvo and RB , and there will be at least a second and third prize winner and also other surprises. I will post photos of Lizard Pleo along with a video so you can see Pleo in motion.
Do not be afraid to ask questions or if you want more photos, I may post them anyway. I also may be listing another Pleo here to get a name for it as well, So make sure to list your name, the meaning if you have one and I will keep track of everything. If I need to extend the deadline I will, but I will not end this early to make sure everybody gets plenty of time to get an entry in. Also prizes will be mailed out and you won't have to wait forever! I know there are some great creative people out here, so with this contest, you need only think of names, no excuses for not entering! Good luck to everyone!

More details...

This seems so cool! I'll definitely enter.

Also, what are the prizes?

Now to put my thinking cap on....

RedwoodsMama · « **Reply #2 on:** September 08, 2011, 07:42:13 PM »

Hi Willow, there are going to be several prizes, different types of prizes. I am still gathering prizes and bought another one at a local store about an hour ago, but want to keep the prizes secret for awhile and towards the end will let you know some hints or photos of some of the prizes.

The more the merrier so everyone put your thinking caps on.

Willow · « **Reply #3 on:** September 08, 2011, 07:47:20 PM »

I see.

I already thought of some!

1. Iris (which is a very colorful type of flower and the word for rainbow in Spanish is “arco iris” and I thought that would be fitting for this colorful pleo!

)
2. Milly
3. Leilani (Hawaiian for “heavenly flower” and is pronounced lay-LON-ee; it is also unisexual)
4. Yogi
5. Dakota
6. Jinx

I like Iris the best for the pleo, but I also like Leilani and Jinx...

Might add more later. XP

Congrats Willow, you are on a roll and off to a great start! You get a special prize just for being the first one to enter any names! Have to find something special and will send it off before the contest ends! What great names. I love the variety and thanks for the explanations, that is what I was looking for! Ok guys Willow got things started, so don't let her be the only one with any names...Keep them comming, I love them so far!

I like Leilani so far and have a special fondness for the name Dakota, but he was a solid white little cat that I took care of , part of the cat colony that Daisy comes from that was relocated...All great names.

Willow · « **Reply #5 on:** September 08, 2011, 07:55:40 PM »

Wow thanks!!!

I'm glad you liked them!

aibo7m3 · « **Reply #6 on:** September 08, 2011, 08:12:31 PM »

Here are just a few names so far:

Kaida (means little dragon in Japanese, I almost ended up naming Kado that)
Raye (short for rainbow because of all the pretty colors you used to paint it

)
Starburst

I'll post more soon!

Goorialla: Australian Aboriginal language, translates as the Rainbow Serpent. One of the most important of their stories, the Rainbow Serpent is the being who created the landscape by wriggling his body around.

With the pink collar and the bullying from the other pleo, this little dino looks and seems to be a girl. I like Rosella, a little rose and Godzilla, combined.

RedwoodsMama · « **Reply #12 on:** September 09, 2011, 03:08:01 PM »

Good work all, keep entering and the more the merrier, I love the ideas you are comming up with. there are going to be lots of other prizes cause there are so many great names already!

A rosella is also a colourful bird from Australia

Willow · « **Reply #14 on:** September 09, 2011, 03:34:50 PM »

1. Affery (Arabic name meaning "colors of the earth")

I've a feeling I said this before, but I go for Gordon Gecko, as in the Wall Street 'greed is good'!

kat · « **Reply #16 on:** September 09, 2011, 10:44:29 PM »

For some reason when ever I see this pleo I think Rusty.

fancyfont · « **Reply #17 on:** September 09, 2011, 11:02:57 PM »

IMR, That AUstralian bird is prettiest bird I've seen. Wish we had birds like that.

RedwoodsMama · « **Reply #18 on:** September 09, 2011, 11:36:37 PM »

fancy, you are right, that bird is very very colorful. I can tell you guys right now, this is not going to be easy, what a great bunch of names you have come up with so far, and this is only 24 hrs after announcing it! Whoa Nelly! I love the variety of names and all the meanings. I may have to give this little Pleo a first middle and last name so I can use several or at least a nick name too!

I am going to have to get my other painted re done pleo named this way too, cause I love the names you are giving "lizard Pleo". Creative juices are flowing tonight guys! Keep em comming this is fantastic, better than I hoped for an there will be some great prizes for all the great effort you guys have put into this.
Great Job Everyone of you!

to all of you.

Ok Guys, I Need more responses, more names or I will extend the deadline, I need lots of names, I am going shopping today and will list some of the prizes, but not all, to give you guys a TASTE of what some are, but in no particular order. There is the Weedovia Tomato festival comming up shortly, couple of weeks and everyone including myself will be very busy when that happens so put your thinking caps on, I will post some pics of some prizes later today to try and inspire some of you,

All the names entered thus far have been Great and it is going to be hard to pick a name, so I need more please please, ok, PRETTY PLEASE, this little Pleo is begging?

Ok, I am anyway as I am her caretaker and Mommy!

I was hoping our Pleo Contest winners would be here to help, but nothing yet, so life goes on. Ok, more entries please, it has been quiet since Sept. 9th!

Suriana - a Malaysian girl's name. It is also the name of a genus of flowering plants (only example aka Bay Cedar) with grey-green, succulent foliage which seems appropriate.

Ariella - believed to be Hebrew meaning "Lion of God"
- feminine form of Ariel

Alessa - girl's name meaning "Defender" (variant of Alessandra)

RedwoodsMama · « **Reply #21 on:** September 28, 2011, 02:55:14 PM »

Ok, I promised a "peek" at some of the prizes, so here is a sample, but not complete. There are more, but I don't want to give it all away, so here are some I got after taking Baby Ruth with me to shop yesterday.

More details...

Read the description of each one for more info.

RWM so remember , these are some of the outfits you may win and there are more prizes, this is just a sampling.

Snowflake, sugar, cookie, candy, dollface, miracle, wonder...

I don´t know if any of the names has been suggested yet, sorry If they have
