Famous turtle names 🐢

1. Franklin : this turtle is famous for having inspired a series of children's books. Franklin is a little shy and awkward, but he is always willing to help his friends. He is also known for his dome-shaped helmet, which makes him look very serious (or a little too serious, according to some).

2. Michelangelo : Although not a real turtle, Michelangelo is one of the main characters in the "Ninja Turtles" cartoon series. He's known for being a bit...odd, with a fondness for pizza and a rather questionable sense of humor. But despite everything, his martial arts skills and fighting spirit make him a beloved hero.

3. Speedy : this tortoise is famous for beating a hare in a famous fable. Contrary to his reputation, Speedy is actually a rather lazy turtle, who prefers to take his time and do things at his own pace.
