Can you help me name my chinchilla?

Asked by crisw (14145points) April 2nd, 2009

I recently adopted a chinchilla from the Humane Society. She came with the spectacularly unoriginal name of “Cheech.” She is three, typical chinchila color but a bit darker than most. She is an active, friendly critter and she deserves a better name, but I’m at an impasse. I like biological names (I was thinking “Lani” after the chinchilla’s scientific name, C. laniger) or perhaps an Incan name, but I couldn’t find anything that struck my fancy. I’d prefer a simple, short name she might actually learn. Any cute ideas?
