Shelly has many nicknames:
Shell, Shelly Belly, Puff, Princess, Bellissima Principessa (yes I speak to her in Italian), Fluff, brat, Poop machine, pooper, baby girl, and beautiful. I'm sure I missed some. She has many nicknames. I talk to her in Italian when she is being a little angel or just waking up. I will scold her in Spanish when she is being a naughty girl.
 
I often refer to the chinchillas by "collective" nicknames, including: "chinzillas", "chinnichangas", "chinny-bo-binnies" and "chinchilla deluxes" (because of the Oxbow label, and yes I know that "deluxes" isn't really a word :p).
