New Rat!!! PICTURES + Help me pick a name!

I got a new rat boy today! I think he's a black berkshire, I'm not totally sure, what do you think? He's got good eyes, nice coat & tail, didn't hear any little whispers to his breath.

He's been a real sweety, tried to hide in the beginning though, I really can't blame him, I let him chill in his cage and take a nap before I took some pix, I just got him home a little while ago I'm so excited!!

:D :D :D

Please tell me what you think I should name him, the above names I all like! Give me suggestions too. :)

SHYAM m Indian

DOUGAL m Scottish, Irish

God luck! :D

I like the name Tafino, he is so cute.

Adorable rat! I would love to have a black berkshire, I have never seen any around...even in the local rat rescues. Can't wait to see more pictures!

Hmmm....naming animals for me is hard unless I actually see, touch, and hold the critter. Hmm...some names I, personally, would consider:

Schwarz-- "black" in German
Nero- "black" in Italian
Preto-"black" in Portuguese
Svart- "black" in Norwegian
Dougan
Charlie
Nile

He's cute! I voted for Teshi.

Here's another name :)

Dunkel - Means dark in German

I LOVE THE NAME CHARLIE!:D :D SO CUTE! call your new ratty Charlie! :) :D :) ;) :) :D
