Default Alice or Alan!?

Hello all!

This is Alice, I was wondering if anyone could help confirm if Alice really is Alice?

I have had her a few months, and am wondering if I should have checked earlier!

I believe she is a Mediteranean, can anyone tell me her proper latin posh name!?

Let me know if you need more pics, and what of - I think I got the obvious bits in!?

Looks like a female to me and Alice is a Spur-thigh tortoise, Testudo graeca ibera.
