WHATβS MY NAME? π½ π π #WhatTheSuccWednesday #HelpMeNameM...
So here is my latest succulent acquisition and I finally got myself a Tigerβs Jaw, although to me it looks more like an Alien as in from Alien (1979), Aliens (1986) and maybe even the latest, Alien Romulus (2024)? Has anyone seen the latest Aliens movie? Should I risk it?!?
Or is it a green alligator π ? I donβt know π€·ββοΈ but I would be interested in your thoughts and ideas for a name as I am sure there are some great ones out there. And finally I have a new succulent before this weeks #WhatTheSuccWednesday. So I donβt fill up the thread thanks to @RJG with heaps of photos of my Tigerβs Jaw #tigerjaws and also my βsoon to be flowering π€πAloe Vera #AloeVera, I thought I best have my own post plus I also want a name for this tiger π
So can you help me and look to join #HelpMeNameMyPlant ?
Some plants look funny, some plants look bizarre and some are just plant weird π€ͺ
Go get βem, Tiger π―!!!! #Seymour #theamigos

Wow @Seymour that plant looks dangerous to me!! Hope it doesnβt hurt you when you have to replant it!! It does look Alien like in that first photo you shared!! π¦· π€¨π½
@Seymour Very cool plant ! It looks like a T Rex in the first picture though I love @SuperblyLilac s answer too . Good luck
@WildDaisies Audrey @PoisedAlbo named her plant Ripley so I ended up up calling a Cephalotus CP Ridley (Scott) after the director of Alien so I wouldnβt like to βborrowβ Ripley although itβs an excellent name for such a plant. Not sure the character Ripley would like to be called an Alien, suspect she might say βGet away from her, you b@$h!βlike she did in Aliens (1986) LOL π
@UltraKoreanfir Liked the way you βWeaverβ-ed that last suggested name in, Melisse πππ½
@Amateurbotany Hey Rachael, I think I am going to have to see what the fuss is all about with Alien Romulus after having recently rewatched Aliens π½ π½
Thanks for the heads up π The legend is that James Cameron pitched Aliens by writing Alien on a board and then adding a dollar sign so it read Alien$ ! Sounds like more Alien movies may follow after this last one π

@Seymour we just rewatched 1-3β¦classics!!
@SuzAnthophile Hey Suzanne, I love Shere Khan the Tiger π
from The Jungle Book as it was voiced by George Sanders who had the most mellifluous voice and I love his acting π a great suggestion so thanks for sharing. Donβt know the Aladdin tiger that well but great movie too! Thanks for the suggestions
@Amateurbotany Poor David Fincher with Aliens 3, if only he had been allowed to do what he had wanted to without studio interference. Alien still holds up well and I hear π it βmakes an appearanceβ in Romulus but no spoilers here !!!
@ArdentNeontetra Godzilla Minus One !!! ππ
@SvelteKingfern Sophie, thatβs not a name β¦ πͺ LOL π Hopimg to save that name for a Crocodile Skin Fern π or Crocodyllus Fern after putting another shrimp π¦ on the Barbie !
@JenniB81 Watched Aliens recently and James (not Jimmy) Cameron shared how they made the cat hiss for the film, apparently put a strange cat in from of it and you get that reaction ! Jonesy was a highlight ! π
Love the idea of the Xenomorph , Xeno is so close to Xena the Warrior Princess LOL π a great Kiwi π₯ production and actress Lucy Lawless !

All right. How about, depending whether the plant is a she or a he, the "plain" Mike, or Sue. The person who is to know, will know. Are these big enough shrimps π¦ π¦ on the Barbie for you πππ @Seymour ?
@rebbieirl Hey Rebbie, love the angry chihuahua noises πππ€£π I know too many Chompy and Bitey π¦· π¦· Venus Fly Traps πͺ€ , even some of my Greg friends have called their VFTs Bitey and Chompy. Chompy reminds me of a chocolate bar we had heat called a βChompβ and the character does look a little like the Tigerβs Jaw π―
@Seymour LMAO oh so glad π ahh thatβs fair! Those are very good names for those plants!
@Amateurbotany @JenniB81 @PoisedAlbo @SuzAnthophile @UltraKoreanfir @WildDaisies @ArdentNeontetra @CourtlyKingfern @oldplantlady @JazzyGardeNerd @Enlivenedlychee @BetterKiwifruit @Araceae @SvelteKingfern @SuperblyLilac @rebbieirl @PiousWaterfern @Neverwas @ILoveMyPlants
Well, that was fun everyone ππ I caved in and went with the name @WildDaisies first suggested although we were dancing around the name with Sigourney (Melisse) and I finally decided to surrender when I heard the sad demise of Audreyβs @PoisedAlbo Ripley.
I just couldnβt get Newt screaming βRipleyβ out of my head after a recent revisiting of Aliens (1986) and itβs hard to call it Queen Alien but I did add Romulus as suggested by Judy @oldplantlady and finally Xenomorph as suggested by Jenni @JenniB81 just so my Ripley doesnβt get confused for any other Ripleys.
I just hope I wonβt regret adding Romulus after I see Alien Romulus π€ππ½but the reviews above are good π
But now thanks to you all I want to get another Tigerβs Jaw, even if only a small one so I can give it another cool name suggested above. So thank you all for the cool π names. In the meantime I welcome Ripley Romulus Xenomorph to the #HelpMeNameMyPlant named plant club !

@BetterKiwifruit Thanks for seconding Ripley, let me lnow what you make of Alien Romulus if you remember πππ½
Hey, @Seymour went to see Alien Romulus today... I enjoyed it, but I felt a bit mixed about it, too. Now watching Alien Convant at home. Have you seen the movie yet? π½
@BetterKiwifruit Hey Clare Rebecca, I suspect my response will be mixed as I already know a little about Alien Romulus and even Covenant and Prometheus were lacking even though great actors etc. So probably see Alien Romulus this week, thanks for sharing your comment. π½Loads of sequels coming out at the movies this yearπΏ π₯
