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!

Since he’s an alpaca who looks like a storm cloud, how about “Catequil” (or just “Quil” for short), for the Inca god of thunder and lightning? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catequil_(god))

He is A beauty! How about naming him Romeo? Loveable for sure!

I looked at him and the first name in my head was Moose.

How about “Apu Machu” which is the Incan name for the conquistador Pizarro, which ties his name in nicely with his father’s.

I like Bowden. It was the first thing that popped into my head, and it’s almost, sort of, a little bit like a combination of his parents’ names.
He’s a cutie-pie!
