My girl looked exactly like this and she was called dirty snowball, then again I saw a white pomeranian a snowcone stall and 2 ice cream trucks on the way home so it felt right
I decided to go with Mochi but then found out she actually is male the pet store told me wrong gender, so I was thinking Dumpling, but not completely sure if I should leave it at Mochi or change it because well I assumed that he was a female at first and have been calling him Mochi, I honestly thought she was was a bit to chubby when I got her but then realized she had so much fur so I was blaming it on the fur, I thought the fur near her tail looked funny but assumed it was that way because she had so much fur, it didn’t look like she had balls it looked like a lot of fur, but I decided to finally see if she would let me hold her on her back so I could actually see if she was female, I’ve never seen a hamster that was so hard to identify the gender, after looking I was so much more confused, there was no visible balls, but my hammy just didn’t look female or male, I just assumed she was female but started questioning it more and more and my gut told me that she was actually a boy, let’s just say I found out because he got excited, and she turned into a he, he’s definitely a boy all right, but it’s hard to even tell he has balls, they look like just fur and I thought hamster balls were supposed to be huge and he is older so I would of assumed, but it does make me feel better finding out that the hammy I thought was really over weight, actually isn’t it’s basically just all his fur and slightly balls, but mainly the fur, he has a lot of fur for a short haired hammy especially on his underneath area
Hmmm.. their balls are huge, but contrary to other rodents they can tuck them away. Just look at him when he's just woken up and you'll see them hanging out, but whenever he's coming out of his lair and does his entire "removing any smells from the fur"-routine before venturing out, he will also tuck them into his ball pouch, the large, furry protrusion on his back side.. 😂
Just do a quick edit of your original post, mark it as such and just write a few words along the lines of "Update: I decided to call her, or as I recently found out, HIM Mochi or Dumpling. Please help me to decide."; otherwise people probably wouldn't be able to connect the two posts.. 😅
Well true 😅😂 I didn’t think of that 😂😅 The problem is it never lets me edit posts on this page, there’s not even an option for me to do so, I thought I just couldn’t edit/update posts here

Tinkerbell, Cotton Candy, Candy, Bubblegum, Sugar, Sweet Pea, Donut, Caramel, Chocoball? I know she's white, but it's hard for me to think of white food lol
Heres what went thru my head when I saw her.
~Oh shes so precious!
~Whats taters, precious?
~Po-Tay-Toes! Boil em, mash em...
~Hey..Could name her Tater...no...call her Tato! (Pronounced -Tay toe)
just wanted to say she looks JUST like my mochi when i first got her. sadly she isnt with me anymore and i miss her very much, but considering i saw other people suggesting it and you want a food based name, I think mochi would be wonderful. take good care of her :) these pictures brought me much joy
I think Pearl is actually a cute name I also like Mochi and Minnie
Thank you I like those names but out of the 3 I prefer, Mochi and Pearl
Oh Mochi would be a great hammy name!!
