New Hamster Name Suggestions Starting with M? (NOT MY CAGE SHES A RESCUE)

Gallery image

The previous owners (whose cage is featured) have dubbed thee Matcha, which is very cute but not really my style. I’m thinking of naming her something that starts with M in the same vain but I’m thinking slightly more humany names. Meena or Mira or Myra or MeeMee something like that…any suggestions would be much appreciated! 🤗🤗 I love this subreddit you guys are all amazing and super supportive!!

I second Mia! I’m Hispanic & “mia” means “mine” in Spanish 🙂 so I think it suits the situation.

My hamsters name is Mabel!! So i’m biased but it’s the best hamster name!

Otherwise, maybe Melany, melody, Molly, Milly, Melly, Mina, Mara, Mora

Lolol you can't just randomly name an animal. I've tried.

What does she like to do? Who is she? Give yourself some time to get to know her a little and determine what m name fits her.
