I tried different names not only Talis, but also Toccata in honour of Bach's music and because she lets me touch her, unlike her brother...but names ending with a "a" don't sound right for her colour. Léto might be not that bad after all.

But now I'm wondering about Thisbé which would be a good match for Tibère.

I guess "Toto" will always be used anayway, whatever her official name becomes.

Of course in North America we think of Dorothy's little dog but I also think it works affectionately for a young animal.

Whatever she responds to!

I tried several names but they didn't work. Thisbé looks great on the paper (the perfect match for Tibère) but sounds snob and silly when I call her that.

She's a cutie. I think she looks like either a Léto, a Sâto or a Galatée:

Toto will remain a nickname for sure, anyway.
