About funny snake names

Snakes have no legs, no eyelids and no interest in playing fetch, which is exactly why joke names suit them so well. This list is puns and jokes from end to end, built on the words keepers already use: hiss, slither, fang, scale, coil and shed, plus species names like boa, python, cobra, viper, adder and asp.

That gives you film and phrase puns such as Little Hiss Sunshine, Slithering Heights, Coil Me Maybe, Fangs for the Memories and Chairman of the Boa-rd, and celebrity parodies like Reese Slitherspoon, Shed Sheeran and David Boa-wie. A handful of classics most keepers know are here as well, Danger Noodle and William Snakespeare among them. Other strands joke about shape (Judgmental Shoelace, Aux Cord, Living Pretzel), knots (Knot Today, Forget Me Knot) and the limbs a snake does not have: Twinkle Toes, Skipped Leg Day and Look Ma, No Hands. Ball python owners get a run of ball jokes, from Disco Ball to Ballpark Figure.

A snake will not come when called, so the name is really for you and your visitors. Pick the one you will enjoy saying out loud and writing on the enclosure card. Everything in the list is clean.

How to choose funny snake names

  • Match the pun to the species. Boa-hemian Rhapsody needs a boa, Corn on the Cobra is funniest on a corn snake and Life of Py belongs to a python.
  • Use the snake's habits. Lid Lifter fits an escape artist, Drama Noodle fits a hognose that plays dead and Shed Sheeran fits the one that always seems to be mid-shed.
  • Ironic names are funniest at the extremes: Fluffy or Mittens for a large constrictor, Wrecking Ball for a tiny hatchling.
  • Plan a short version for the enclosure card and the vet's records. Wacky Inflatable Tube Man can go by Wacky.

Frequently asked questions

What are some funny names for a snake?

The best-known ones are Danger Noodle, Nope Rope, Monty Python and William Snakespeare. This list goes further with Little Hiss Sunshine, Reese Slitherspoon, Coil Me Maybe, Snake It Off, Judgmental Shoelace and Knot Today.

What is a funny name for a ball python?

Play on the word ball: Disco Ball, Stress Ball, Belle of the Ball, Crystal Ball and Ballpark Figure are all in the list. Python puns work too, such as Pythonagoras, Humble Py and Life of Py.

What are some ironic names for a snake?

Anything that promises fur or feet. Fluffy, Mr. Cuddles, Mittens, Twinkle Toes, Happy Feet, Tap Dancer and Hands Free all get a laugh because the snake so clearly has none of those things.

Do snakes know their names?

Not the way a dog does. Snakes have no outer ears and do not learn to come when called, although many get used to a keeper's handling and routine. The name is for the people around the snake, so choose one that makes you smile.
