In the original Rocky, what is the name of Rocky's pet turtle?

In the original Rocky, Rocky’s pet turtles are named Cuff and Link.

Rocky keeps Cuff and Link at the pet store where Adrian works. The turtles appear in the early Philadelphia scenes and help show Rocky’s quiet, sentimental side before the championship opportunity changes his life. Their names are a small detail, but they are part of the film’s memorable character world.

Rocky visits Adrian at the pet store and gradually develops a romantic relationship with her. The store therefore becomes an important setting for both the turtles and Rocky and Adrian’s early interactions.

The pair is sometimes remembered as a single pet or confused with other named animals in popular films. Cuff and Link are two separate turtles, and their names reference the linked terms “cuff” and “link.”
