Cage size / looking for names thread

Ok so some of you might know i recently got a tegu(I'll pictures as soon as possible). I'm planning on building a 7'x3'x2.5'-3' cage and i was wondering if you guys think that would keep the little bugger happy when he's older? I know the minimum is a 6'x3'x3' but it's just my nature to make sure it's ok.

My other question is what are some good names for a tegu? I was kind of thinking Alice because its semi-unisex if thats possible :p I'd like unisex names seeing as i can't tell the gender because hes only 11" s long. :)

Thank you,
Spencer

The cages I built for our adult Tegu's are 7ft x 3ft x 3ft. They are adequate for a 3.5ft lizard. I built them that size because that's the room I had for the first one. Then I stacked another on top, then built another one. Soon there will be a 18" snake version.

I'm not very good with names. "Hey you" always works. I call our newest snakes "big snakey" and "little snakey". Yes not very original but the snake doesn't know the difference.
