Juliet or Julie are possibilities.She is the traditional "salt &

crazy about it.

How about Saltine (Tina for short)? I'm not crazy about Pepper myself; to me it's masculine. Or, going a step further from Jenny's Grizzle... Grizelda ? <g>


I would like a name that is different to the traditional hedgehog
names like Prickles, Mrs Tiggywinkle.

In Poland, every second hedgehog tends to be called Tuptus or Tuptusia (depending on sex). Loosely translated, it would be something like "Stompie", or "Tappie"; "tup, tup" (pronounced "toop, toop"; *not* like the English of the same spelling <g>) being the sound feet make over the floor.


I think you ought to name her *after* you get her -- something in her personality will suggest the right name for her, I'm sure...
