I think 'Ami' is a boy. Now I'm in a pickle over the name.

ren said...: you know, there are men called carroll and leslie and lindsey and such, i don't see why ami should be any different. or you could always just go with his first name. he wouldn't be the first boy called puffy.; May 11, 2006 2:54 PM
Joanne said...: I figured out at about year 5 that Baxter was really a girl. (She didn't cotton to me picking her up and petting her tummy so I never noticed she was not a boy.) She just kept the name Baxter.; May 11, 2006 3:02 PM

K. Marie said...: Considering we tend to whack the gender-defining traits off most of our domestic pets anyhow, what does it matter? I think Ami is just great. I think you could even keep on considering it a "her" if you like. Besides, as long as you keep Ami separated from other hammies, you can just keep on pretending you have no idea, right?; May 16, 2006 9:47 AM
Joanne said...: Ooh... plus that guy on Miami Ink is named Ami and he's pretty butch. I think you can keep Ami.; May 16, 2006 10:28 AM
Jodi said...: Yeah, I'm sticky with Ami and the plethora of nicknames I already gave the critter. Ami-Ham is usually what I end up calling him.; May 16, 2006 11:29 AM
