Naming a seedling

I have had quite a few of my seedlings bloom over the past few years, but never named any or kept any, as they where not special.

This particular one I am going to keep. Rather like it and it is showing promise. Has a striped throat when first opens, similar to the Crispum bloom.

I am going to be using the Prefix "Dynamic" in front of all my seed grown trees.

Looking for a name for this one and thought I would ask all of my Adenium friends to help.

Dynamic ________.

I am also quite interested to see what is happening to this tree under the soil line. Looks like a nice future caudex in the making.

For interest sake. This is a seedling from seed of a bloom called "Have a Dream Most Beautiful". Not even close, but then was not expecting it either.

Thank you everyone for your input. It is very much appreciated.

I decided to call this tree.

" D. Mua Loa " (Dynamic Forever)

I chose a Hawaiian name. We visit there so much and it is paradise to me. My special place.

Thanks you guys. Just a question. Do you think the word 'Dynamic' is too long?

My friend in Australia uses Encue and Kirk, you have a word you use. Do you not?

Right now the only word I use is "Electric" Plasma since I'm sure the three different adeniums are of the same seed batch and the colors are only slightly different. Otherwise the blooms look the same. I haven't thought about using a single prefix for any future ones. But now I am giving it some thought.

Rick I like the name 'Dynamic Fantasy' as it somewhat relates to the parent's name (Dream).

I keep thinking Essence, not sure why. Just what the colors brought to mind I guess.

Crispum flowers look very interesting! I like the curls, Rick.
