James Roday on Reddit discussing Treehouse

Reddit with JAMES RODAY

I’m James Roday from Psych and A Million Little Things. I also directed two horror movies for Blumhouse’s Into the Dark Horror Anthology Series on Hulu. AMA!

JAMES RODAY: Roday here. I think. I'm typing things in a box so that seems encouraging.

JAMES RODAY: I think I'm an hour early. That's the first time in my adult life this has ever happened. I'll pop back by a little later. And I'll be READY.

JAMES RODAY: Yo! How about I knock out these early bird questions like a baller.

QUESTION (CharlotteBeer): Given your latest is part of a seasonal series, when did you start work on the script -- and how long did it take you? How did y'all settle on the Ides of March?)

JAMES RODAY: CharlotteBeer -- it all came together very quickly because of my schedule on AMLT. Got the thumbs up in April and we were shooting in early June. It was an idea I had been kicking around for years but current climate and conversation definitely opened a window and my collaborators and I jumped through it.

CharlotteBeer -- Oh, and we settled on International Women's Day. Hulu made it Ides of March.

ASSHOLE QUESTION (yanderebeats): So uh what the fuck was that scene with them putting the snake on his arm? Like what was the direction given to mcpoyle exactly, did you specifically tell him to do the worst job possible or what

JAMES RODAY: Yandererbeats -- 1. Well, the dude is tripping on psychotropes so he's seeing all kinds of shit and the ladies are using that to their advantage. 2. No, I think Jimmi Simpson is a genius and generally requires little direction from me 3 (bonus) You sure this is what you want to be doing with your time?

QUESTION (ConicalSun): What advice would you give to someone that wants to pursue work in film? Directing in particular.

JAMES RODAY: ConicalSun -- Make something. Get familiar with a camera and how to shoot. If you can afford to take a filmmaking class that provides instruction and equipment, sometimes that helps speed the plow. But I'm guessing you know what you like and don't like about movies and it's easier than ever to get out there and make your own content so give it a whirl.

QUESTION (psych-o5life): Out of every character you have ever played, which one are you most like?

JAMES RODAY: psych0-5life -- Probably the dude I'm playing now on AMLT.

QUESTION (seppukuu): What is your writing process like? Do you live out the stories in your head or, since you usually have a writing partner, do you prefer a more systematic approach that involves discussions and outlines?

JAMES RODAY: Seppukuu -- Todd and I have been writing together for over 20 years now. We have such a great shorthand that we can accomplish a lot quickly without spending much time in a room together. Vodka helps. We talk story, specific scenes and generally write the stuff we see best in our heads, respectively. Once we have a very rough draft, everything becomes much easier and the streamlining and polishing begins. That's generally when character voices really start to take shape as well.

seppukuu: In vodka veritas!

QUESTION (Nikesneaker): Hi James!

Do you have a favorite director/actor/actress that you look up to as a “hero”?

P.S. supa excited for Psych: The Movie 2

JAMES RODAY: Nikespeaker -- I grew up an enormous fan of Val Kilmer as an actor, Rick Baker and a SPX Make Up Artist and Stanley Kubrick as a director. I'd add Bergman, Wes Craven, John Landis and Quentin Tarantino to the list of directors I've really appreciated over the years and Lynne Ramsay is an absolute force of nature. I also CANNOT WAIT to see what Julia Decournau does next after RAW...

QUESTION (mooviescribe): If you were to direct another horror feature (not for Dark Horror), what type of script catches your eye?

JAMES RODAY: mooviescribe -- I will def be directing more horror. I love the genre and believe there are plenty more good stories to be told. As for scripts -- anything that moves me catches my eye. Being scared is fun but if it makes you think and feel -- that's the real fire starter

JAMES RODAY: I just realized I can reply to questions by hitting reply. This is GOOD SHIT.

QUESTION (Wizardmer): I am such a huge fan of Psych, and some of my favorite episodes were the fun homages to classic horror movies, here's lassie was my personal favorite. Was there any other horror movies you wanted to do as an episode?

How did the costume design come to life for treehouse? I loved those awesome outfits, super dope

JAMES RODAY: They let me check most all the remaining horror boxes in A Nightmare on State Street. It's just a big sloppy buffet but I loved every minute of it. Costume and mask design were the work of the incredibly talented Diane Crooke. She was one of a whole team of lady designers that elevated every element of Treehouse and I am eternally grateful.

QUESTION (UHeardAboutPluto): Have you heard about Pluto?

JAMES RODAY: That's messed up, right?

UHeardAboutPluto: James, you have made me the happiest I’ve been in a long time. Pysch is my favorite show ever, and that response from you was perfect. Thank you for being awesome!

QUESTION (AsymptoticGames): I just want to point out that I love when co-stars of some of my favorite shows hang out outside of the show. On that note, how was Dule Hill's wedding?

JAMES RODAY: Beautiful.

QUESTION (psych-o5life): Are you helping with production on Psych the Movie 2?

JAMES RODAY: Co-wrote the adventure and we're prepping it now. Steve will be directing and it's gonna be sweet.

QUESTION (bakuryu69): Hey big fan James - what drew you to directing horror. Will you be doing more work in the genre (possibly pineapple related)?

JAMES RODAY: I've been a fan of horror since I was old enough to know what movies were. Somehow convinced my mother that I loved being scared and wanted to learn how all the cool special fx and make up worked. She went for it.

QUESTION (Maxzhouse): Hey man, I really dig your work. I was wondering if you’re into writing and if so what your process looks like? Thanks mate!

JAMES RODAY: It generally looks like one inspired hour of writing a day and 23 hours of procrastination and thinking I should never write again.

Maxzhouse: Ah a man after my own heart! Thanks for answering brother, Hope the best for you and yours. Peace, love & Mercy

QUESTION (seppukuu): You said before that your high school production of Elephant Man was the most challenging acting gig you've ever done. Is this still true, and would you like to do it again now that you have considerably more experience under your belt? What would be another (type of) character you'd find most challenging/exciting to play?

JAMES RODAY: I'm too old to dip back into John Merrick's skin but man that is a tough play to pull off. Moving forward, I think characters that are well written with a real point of view (good or bad) are the ones that we all want to play as actors.

QUESTION (TheReelPliskin): Hey James. I just wanted to say you're awesome! I've been watching everything you're in or a part of ever since I saw a little movie called Rolling Kansas. Can't wait for the new Psych movie and I fell I'll hafta get Hulu now so I can see your new movies. Ok. Enough of that. Now for the question. Outside of Psych and Little Things, what is one of your personal favorite movie or show you've been a part of? P.S. . . SUCK IIIIIIT!!!

JAMES RODAY: It's gotta be Treehouse. And a tiny film I was lucky enough to be a part of a few years back called Pushing Dead directed by Tom Brown. Worth checking out. Important subject matter.

QUESTION (deadpool902): Hey James!

Quick two-part question:

What aspect of anthology storytelling entices you the most?

Were there any horror stories or films that you turned to for inspiration when directing for Into the Dark, and if so what were they?

Thanks for stopping by and I can't wait for your return to Santa Barbara!

JAMES RODAY:

The fact that, in this case, 12 different filmmakers got to come in and do anything they wanted without worrying about stepping on toes or syncing up with any of the other films

Raw, Thelma, Goodnight Mommy -- 70s horror.

QUESTION (tedlogan43): Mr. Roday - Gravy was fantastic, A Million Little Things blows my mind, and Psych is a part of who I am at my core. I wanted to ask what it is like to get to continue working with so many great professionals like Dule Hill, Michael Weston and Jimmi Simpson. Do you feel like your continued projects with them are improved by your on-going relationships with them? Thanks for the profound impact your roles have had on my life!

JAMES RODAY: I am tremendously lucky to have so many insanely talented besties. I am no dummy. I surround myself with ladies and gents that make me look way better than I deserve and will continue to do so as long as they'll let me.

QUESTION (fangirl005): What is the best thing about working on AMLT?

JAMES RODAY: The cast. And knowing that we're dealing with issues that affect so many people every day. It feels good to be a part of those conversations in even the smallest of ways.

QUESTION (jmsturm): Hi Mr Roday, big fan.

Who would win if Shawn went head to head with the Mentalist?

JAMES RODAY: Well he'd def be the comic relief.

QUESTION (TheWalkingGamefreak): Good evening James, just want to say hi

JAMES RODAY: sup

QUESTION (seppukuu): Marvel called and wants to give you half a billion dollars to direct Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Do you accept, and would you still try and shoot it in 3 weeks on a 200 dollar budget instead?

JAMES RODAY: hahaha. that's a great answer and the honest to God answer is that I'd only do it if I thought I could bring something unique or unexpected to the fanbase. Otherwise there are plenty of ladies and gents for the job.

QUESTION (FusionCinemaProd): What would you say is the most creative horror film of the last decade?

JAMES RODAY: Creative? That's pretty subjective. I'd say last years reboot of Suspiria was a pretty big creative swing that mostly succeeded IMHO. And I stand by RAW as one of the best films of the last decade, period.

FusionCinemaProd: Raw is a fantastic film. I’ll have to check Suspiria out on blu ray when it comes out here in the UK.

QUESTION (modsrfagbags): What was your favorite “Gus don’t be...” line from Psych? My favorites gotta be either “eleven and a half pound Black Forest ham” or “the 100th luftballoon”

JAMES RODAY: I am a sucker for a luft balloon

modsrfagbags: Oh shit thanks for responding

QUESTION (imdannyg): Have to admit, the torture scenes with Peter Rake (Jimmi Simpson) gave me flashbacks to your work in Blood Drive. Is there any connection there at all and/or did it prepare you in anyway for this scene in Treehouse?

JAMES RODAY: Welcome Daniel. You know I hadn't thought about it until just now. The two projects are so tonally different but I'll say this -- shooting scenes designed around a character that cannot move is challenging to say the least. Blood Drive probably did serve as a dry run for me without even realizing it.

QUESTION (seppukuu): Have you ever done special effects make-up on another person? If not, would you like to try or are you happy watching the professionals do it for you?

JAMES RODAY: I used to do it quite a bit as a kid. There's a reason I didn't end up being the next Rick Baker.

QUESTION (HippoMafia42): Hey James, huge psych fan here, I know psych the movie 2 will start production sometime this month, but when will that be? Hopefully within the week?:)

JAMES RODAY: Soon. We need a little time to find and build things.

QUESTION (miatosc): What was your favorite scene to shoot this season on a million little things?

JAMES RODAY: There were so many. My scenes with Colin the dog in the "day before" episode were especially sweet.

miatosc: haha! I was guessing any scene with Colin since he’s such a sweet dog.

QUESTION (thepineapplesplat): James! Man glad to hear your free-spirit self. Huge fan of Psych and no matter how much I’ve watched the episodes over and over it never ceases to make me smile. You were apart of a master piece and taught me to always stay true to the inner child in me. Absolute master piece!

Serious question, do you see yourself doing any meet and greets with fans in Canada? Perhaps in Vancouver where Psych was shot?

JAMES RODAY: thanks! So glad it resonated with you. As for meeting fans, I'm always happy to say hi -- I struggle with the format of conventions because I wish fans didn't have to spend their money. They already do so much by just watching and keeping shows on the air....

thepineapplesplat: Yeah definitely makes sense. Meeting you and Dule Hill is definitely on my bucket list. I’m not a huge on meeting celebrities (I think of them as regular people) but psych stars will definitely hold a place in my childhood/adolescence memories. Thanks for bringing it to life! Sorry if I seem like I’m fan girl-ing out haha!

QUESTION (seppukuu): Will we ever see a new play written (and directed) by you?

JAMES RODAY: someday.

QUESTION (psych-o5life): What was your favorite episode of Psych to film?

JAMES RODAY: Probably Dual Spires because it was the closest I'll ever get to being in Twin Peaks.

QUESTION (NateLeport): What was your favorite episode of psych to work on? What was your favorite running gag like the pineapple, I’ve heard it both ways, come on son, I’m Shawn spencer and this is my partner ____, etc.

JAMES RODAY: I became partial to singing suck it towards the end

QUESTION (leeselislisuh): What was your biggest recurring nightmare as a kid? Mine happened a lot when my mom was pregnant with my little sister, and I kept dreaming she'd be born with a full set of very pointy teeth. Horrifying. Huge fan and excited to see more of your work!!

JAMES RODAY: What a question. And what a nightmare. I used to dream that I was a werewolf but I thought that was awesome and didn't want to wakeup

QUESTION (bsischo): When does the next Psych movie come out? I loved that series and I really enjoyed the last movie.

JAMES RODAY: Good question and not sure of the answer. If I had to guess I'd say around the holidays again

bsischo: Really looking forward to it!!!

QUESTION (imdannyg): How did the music choices for Treehouse play out? Priscilla Ahn's Under the Covers is the bomb!

JAMES RODAY: All those needle drops are in the script. I tend to write very specifically to music and, knowing we'd have little to know music budget, I chose songs we had shot at getting. We got all of them. Priscilla, per usual, stepped up and wrote something incredible just for the movie. Another ridiculously talented dear friend who I will employ forever and ever as long as she says yes.

QUESTION (TheWriteOwl): James, thank you so much for doing an AMA and letting us all fan-girl our hearts out. I think it's rare to see someone who moves as smoothly as you do from being a comedic genius in a show like Psych and a thrill master in movies like Treehouse.

What attracted you to these two, disparate genres, and can you speak a little bit about why you think you've seen so much success in both?

JAMES RODAY: Better to be lucky than good and I've been very lucky. I have dedicated myself to being as good as humanly possible to try and make sense of how blessed I've been. Growing up, horror and comedy were the genres I gravitated to the most so they've been in my bones for a very long time. I still remember seeing An American Werewolf in London in the theaters as a six year old. That just about sums me up.

TheWriteOwl: Your dedication and your inherent love for what you do really shows up in your work. As a fan, it's awesome to see - thank you!

QUESTION (eppukuu): Film or digital?

JAMES RODAY: Film. But I do understand the revolution. We shot the first three seasons of Psych on film and Tuesday the 17th was shot on Super 16 which is one of my very favorite formats. There's something truly special about knowing you only have so much film to shoot on and so many takes to get it -- really brings a crew and cast together. And it just looks so good. Though technology has definitely curbed that with HD.

QUESTION (angelusgirl): I started watching Psych after I watched the awesome episode Dual Spires. What was your favorite Twin Peaks Easter egg in the episode or memory of filming it?

JAMES RODAY: The last scene in the diner was a blast because it was a basket of easter eggs. And I'll never forget watching the cast of my favorite show reunite in real time at the Sutton Place bar. Some of them hadn't seen each other in 25 years.

angelusgirl: And a follow up if I may, what did you think of the showtime season?

JAMES RODAY: Well. I loved it because it felt like the deepest recesses of David Lynch's mind were turned loose and who knows if or when we'll get to experience that again. That said, I understand why it wasn't for everyone and if you came in expecting an evolution of the original series....well, you probably didn't get what you were hoping for.

QUESTION (cabose7): How is Timothy Omundson doing?

JAMES RODAY: He's such a badass and he's doing great. He has exceeded expectations at every turn and I cannot wait to bring Lassie back home.

QUESTION (]miatosc): what’s it like working with Allison Miller? She seems super funny and passionate about her work.

JAMES RODAY: Miller is a truly gifted performer. I lucked out getting her as a scene partner. She pushes me, carries me and makes me better. No question.

QUESTION (imdannyg): Did you write Agnes with Nancy Charles in mind? She (and all the cast) is incredible!

JAMES RODAY: We did not but boy did she come into her audition and own that role. When she left we all looked at each other and were like "well, that's that."

QUESTION (seppukuu): You survived the (non-zombie related) apocalypse. The planet is a wasteland. What do you miss most?

JAMES RODAY: Dogs and pals.

QUESTION (mndrlyn): Hi James! Two questions. 1. Does the beard stay for the new Psych movie? 2. What do you do in your off time that makes you happy?

JAMES RODAY: You'll just have to wait and....oh who are we kidding, Shawn doesn't have a beard. I generally spend as much time in NYC as I can and relax by thinking about the next juicy thing I can make. And vodka and sports.

QUESTION (psych-o5life): Do you know what's gonna happen in AMLT season 2?

JAMES RODAY: I may know a thing or two -- which still leaves close to a million

JAMES RODAY: You awesome ladies and gents I'm gonna wrap this up in the next five minutes. We've actually gone over an hour and I don't want to break Reddit.

QUESTION (imdannyg): What are the most difficult constraints to overcome with a limited budget such as this? Is it just time, is it human resources, is it gadget/technology oriented issues? What extra thing would help the most with a limited budget like Treehouse?

JAMES RODAY: All of the above. And I would always choose time over money.

QUESTION (SydneyHollow): Shawn was a big hero of mine for a long time. Then I realized over time that Shawn is a huge dick. Nevertheless, your ability to breathe such life into his character is nothing short of amazing. All the actors on Psych, really, are truly gifted!

Did you ever have doubts about how successful Psych would be?

JAMES RODAY: Hahaha! I love this. And believe me the longer the show ran, the more challenging it became to keep a character like Shawn digestible. It's like watching Puck of Peter Pan for muuuuch longer than a movie or a play. But yes, that was a wonderful group of actors and humans and we are family. Lightning in a bottle to be sure. The success of Psych never ceases to amaze me. Truly. And that's all because of the fans. 100 percent.

QUESTION (JessicaSimbro): In writing a female role for one of your films, what personality traits does an attractive woman have in your mind? And what then makes that same woman gaspingly frightening?

JAMES RODAY: I believe attractiveness lives primarily on the inside. I'd say the same for what makes anyone frightening.

QUESTION (woahbells): From interviews you seem introverted and introspective but not uncomfortable being questioned about both work and personal topics. Assuming I'm correct and that you are an introvert, how do you reconcile that aspect of your personality with fame?

Also, I noticed the subtle pineapples on Peter's daughter's shirt at the end. Was that intentionally done?

JAMES RODAY: Not my choice but I also didn't veto it so...

QUESTION (firmhair): Come back to White Rock. Our Pier is gone :(

JAMES RODAY: Deal. And with that, thank you all for joining me. It's always a pleasure to connect with you all. If you haven't checked out Treehouse on Hulu, give it a spin. I am enormously proud of the work from all involved and especially grateful for the opportunity to work with and learn from so many talented and insightful women. Be kind to yourselves and others and get ready for a million little spoonfuls of delicious flavor in the future....

250 Funny, Famous and Cute Frog Names

New Post has been published on https://www.petculiars.com/250-funny-famous-and-cute-frog-names/

250 Funny, Famous and Cute Frog Names

Frogs are small creatures that can be found all around the world and some people like to keep them as pets as well. As long as you build a proper environment you can easily keep some aquatic types of frogs in aquariums at home.

Regardless of whether you get yourself a real frog as a pet or buy a frog plushie, you will have to find the perfect name for it. I thought I’d make this part easier for you and designed a few lists of names, either funny or cute, that I believe would be perfect for a frog.

Good Frog Names

Lily: YOu might already know that frogs really like to sit on lily pads, in water. This is why the name Lily fits a frog just perfectly.

Pickle: The green color of most frogs makes them look just like pickles. So you surely understand why Pickle would be a cool name for a frog. It is a pretty funny name.

Plutoad: This is a joke around the name of the cartoon character Pluto and the word toad which means frog. Pluto is not only the name of a Disney character but also a planet.

You might also like my articles about the best names for squids, octopuses, or groundhogs.

Pluto is portrayed as the pet of Mickey Mouse. It was first a part of a cartoon in 1930 and it didn’t take long for it to become a known star in the cartoon culture.

Plutoad is especially an option if your frog stands out with its facial expressions because Pluto was very loved for his.

It’s always a good idea to give your frog a cute name, as they are pretty cute creatures.

Below you will find a list of other cute names for frogs.

Nibbles

Ladybug

Kiki

Joy

Joey

Jellybean

Indy

Huey

Hopper

Honey

Green Pea

Daisy

Cubs

Cosmos

Biscuit

Billie

Decent Pet Frog Names

This list is comprised of some pet frog names that simply make sense and won’t stand out in any way.

Werner

Twinkle

Turbo

Snowflake

Sam

Richie

Peanut

Papa

Nico

Nickie

Mace

Jem

Hobbes

George

Frosty

Buddy

Birdie

Bailey

Audi

Arnie

Albert

Funny Frog Names

If you’re more of a funny guy and you always want to make your friends laugh, then giving your pet a funny name would surely be a conversation starter.

It’s pretty easy to find a pun name for a frog which makes the process of finding a name really fun.

Below you will find a few ideas of fun names for a frog.

Lollihop: Considering that frogs move around by hopping, a pun around their way of locomotion really makes sense. Some of them are also colored, which made me think of a pun using those two words. This resulted in Lollihop. This is not only a great name for frogs but can be given to other hopping creatures as well, especially if they are very colored.

Hip Hop: A pun name made from the name of a musical genre would be great, especially for those that like both the music type and the animal itself. Hip hop works great for frogs mostly because they jump around.

Gwen Stefroggy: If you’re a Gwen Stefany fan, then why not give an homage to her with your frog’s name? It sounds really funny to call your frog Gwen Stefroggy, although it might be a mouthful for some people. This is not the only star you can use to name your pet frog. With enough imagination, the sky is the limit.

If you still haven’t found a name for your pet frog up until now, below you will have a longer list of funny frog names to pick from.

Warty

Thicky Nicky

Lilly Paddy

Hoppy

Frogger

Fatso

Dapydil

Daddy McFrogger

Croaky

Hilarious Frog Names

In the next part, you will find some more hilarious frog names to pick between.

Green Man: If you’re a fan of superheroes, or even if you just want a special name, you can never miss when naming your pet after a superhero. Who says a frog can’t be a superhero? And they are already green which makes figuring out their superhero name even easier.

Hypnotoad: This is a great combination of the word toad and hypnotize. This was actually a character from the TV series Futurama. You will surely get a few smiles out of Futurama fans when they find out you named your pet frog Hypnotoad.

Famous Frog Names

Your frog will surely have a memorable name if you name it after a famous fictional character that people love.

Trevor: You might have heard of Trevor if you’re a fan of the Harry Potter series. This was a pet frog that was given to Neville, from his uncle Algie, as a gift. Trevor will resonate in the ears of Harry Potter fans, but will have little to no meaning to someone that didn’t see the movie series or read the books.

If Trevor isn’t the name you were looking for, maybe these other famous frogs will have more interesting names:

Mr. Toad

King Harold

Jeremey Fisher

Froggy

Ed Bighead

Bufo

Brer

Other Cool Frog Names

Yoda: You have surely heard of the character Yoda from the movie series Star Wars. Even if you haven’t seen the movie series, his pop-culture popularity has surely reached your ears. Yoda looks just like a frog, which makes this name appropriate. He is known as one of the best Jedi Masters, despite him being small and having a weird way of talking. It is one of the best fighters in the movie.

Snoop Frog: You would surely turn heads if you name your frog Snoop Frog. It’s an homage to the famous rapper and world-known star Snoop Dog. The rapper is considered among the coolest people in the world, which would make your frog also seem cool by association.

Female Frog Names

If you know for sure that your frog is a she, then you should find a perfect name in the list of girl frog names from below.

Zelda

Zadie

Velma

Trisha

Sydney

Skylar

Skye

Shelly

Sandy

Samantha

Sable

Roxie

Rosy

Georgia

Felicia

Elsy

Ellie

Donna

Dahlia

Cindi

Cathy

Baby Frog Names

The list below offers some choices for baby frog names, but you should remember that your frog will become an adult at some point, so a baby name might not fit anymore. Use one of these names if your pet belongs to a smaller species.

Zoom

Umberto

Stuart

Smarty

Shelby

Rex

Puppy

Puck

Jett

Jamie

Grady

Ferdinand

Carlos

Astro

Adam

The Best Frog Names

Every individual finds a different meaning behind the perfect frog name. However, the names below are among my favorite frog names.

Ribbit: You’ve surely heard the sound a frog makes when trying to communicate with other frogs. It’s just that, a Ribbit. This is why the name Ribbit sounds like a way in which you are trying to talk to your pet. It’s very easy to pronounce and everyone will understand its meaning.

Kermit: Most of us have grown up with the lovely series that featured Kermit the frog as a character. Kermit was one of the Muppets that appeared in both Sesame Street and different Muppet productions. His first appearance on TV screens was in 1955, which makes this frog over half of a century old. The frog was used as the logo of the Jim Henson Company mainly because the character was played by Jim himself.

Kermit was not only a character but also the main host of the Muppet Show. This is why naming your frog Kermit will surely awake some memories in the minds of a lot of people.

The Perfect Pacman Frog Name

One popular genus of frogs goes by the name Pacman frogs. It is a stage name, as their official genus name is ceratophrys. Their stage name comes from their resemblance to the popular characters from the Pacman game.

Paku-Paku: If you were to consider the nickname that these frogs got and their similarity to the characters of the Pacman game, a cuter version of the nickname would be Paku-Paku.

A Frog Name From Disney

Prince Naveen: You surely know the story of a prince that was turned into a frog, but do you know the name of that prince? It turns out his name is Prince Naveen and the movie is called the Princess and the Frog was first aired in 2009.

If you are a fan of Disney, their characters, or simply like the story of the prince turned into a frog, then Naveen or Prince Naveen could be a cool name.

Naruto Frog Names

Throughout this Japanese manga series, you’ll meet a few different toad characters, and you can find their names in the list below.

Shima

Kosuke

Gerotora

Gekomatsu

Gamariki

Gamamaru

Gamakichi

Gamaken

Gamahiro

Gamagoro

Gamaden

Gamabunta

Gama

Fukasaku

Yellow Frog Names

Yellow frogs are a pretty interesting species that come in a combination of black and yellow colors.

Stripes

Black Eyes

Golden Dart

African Dwarf Frog Names

The list below should give you a few ideas for African Dwarf Frog names.

Toothless

Swimmer

Spotty

Smol

Flipper

Amphie

Aquatic Frog Names

If you know for sure that your pet frog is an aquatic species, then either Strangefoot or Pipidae should be appropriate for it.

On the other hand, if you have an African Albino Clawed frog, then it should be called Claw, in my opinion. It just sounds right.

Figuring out a name that perfectly mirrors the frog’s personality, species, or colors is a great way of showing respect for its characteristics. The lists above should give you some great ideas to name your frog. If you have a better idea, please leave a comment below.
