Favorite place, person, animal, cartoon characters, comics, etc., can serve as different sources for naming you pet hamster. Giving your favorite name to your hamster is like tying more threads to the bond you are going to share with your loving pet. If you happen to see any particular trait in your pet, that might help in choosing a suitable name. The gender also is a deciding factor in naming your hamster; an obvious fact! You won’t like your lovely girl hamster to be known as ‘Crush’ and nor will your hamster!
