    Miss Fluffina Duckina - as fluffy ducks are known to be the masters of reptiles (and have snack tattoos hidden under their plumage)

    or just go with Bee and write a romance between her and the Honey character ...

    Some East/South Asian flavor:
    Naga (Personal favorite; deity/supernatural entity in snake form)
    Soma (Naga princess of Khmer lore)
    Nanda, Upananda, Sagara, Vasuki, Takshaka, Anavatapta, Manasvin, or Utpalaka (Serpents gathered to hear the Lotus Sutra)
    Ananta, Shesha (King of Snakes)
    Manasa (Queen of Snakes)
    Kaliya (Poisoned the land around it but defeated by Krishna)

    Miscellaneous mythological:
    Nidhogg (Ate the roots of Yggdrasil)
    Jormungand, Jormungandr (Serpent that wrapped around Midgard)
    Quetzalcoatl (The feathered serpent of Aztec lore)
    Gorgon, Medusa (Greek lore; you're probably familiar?)
    Hydra (A many-headed reptile for an MC with many snakes)
    Mara (Really stretching on this one; the Buddhist symbol of worldly attachment and temptation very roughly equivalent to the Abrahamic tradition's serpent which tempts Adam and Eve)

    More literal:
    Snake (Welp.)
    Viper (Pretty self-explanatory)
    Adder (Or Blackadder, if you're a British comedy fan XD)
    Boa, Python, Anaconda (non-poisonous; latter two also double as innuendos for male genitalia)
    Dragon (Might as well go the whole hog, huh?)
    Venom (A little on the nose, but maybe that's what you're aiming for)

    Vennessa .
    sounds like a female version of venom so people can remember the character better.
    The meaning of the name is "the gift of god".
