Help Name Our Alpaca - Contest Ends Soon!

This cute little alpaca boy needs a name! 

We'd like help in naming our newest addition to our alpaca ranch. Here are some characteristics about this little boy who was born a couple of weeks ago. He is dark brown with soft, silky fiber that we'll eventually shear and sell as yarn on our website. He's really fast running around the pasture, likes to pronk, is very curious, is very proud in his stance like his father (Snowmass Conquistador). He is very independent but still likes to stay by his mom (Daphne) in the evenings. There's more pictures on our ranch website photo gallery  So here's the deal, suggest a name in the comments section of this blog along with reason.
The winner will get a $25 gift card from Alpaca Direct. 

So..put on your creative hat, think about his characteristics and have fun suggesting a great name for this little boy alpaca!

this is a little silly because he’s not a sheep, but how about “Three Bags Full” as in Ba Ba black sheep, have you any wool. Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full.

I would name this beautiful animal “Marta”, which is Spanish for Sable, for two reasons.
1. His Lovely dark sable colour
and
2. That SABLE stands for Stash Accumulation Beyond Life Expectancy – a knitty term for owning more yarn than you can ever knit.

How about Blackberry? Dark and sweet… and just a little tart! :)

I suggest Nieve Carbón or Schnee Kohle—Snow Coal in Spanish and German, respectively.

What a handsome new addition to your alpaca family! As for a name, I’ll go with the first thing that popped into my head when I opened the page and saw him: Salvador Dali. Or just Salvador. Or maybe even just Dali?
Can’t wait to hear what name you choose!
