How To

How to choose a good name for your pet?

Name selection is one of most important decisions when you adopt a pet. You want to pick a name that reflects who they are and what kind of personality they have.

Consider how other people may refer to them. If you are going to use their name during conversation, for instance. Finally, think about how you'd like to be referred. Do you prefer "pet" or "dog"?

Here are some tips that will help you get started.

  1. Choose a name that is appropriate for your dog's breed. Look up the names associated to the breed, if you have a good idea of what it is (e.g. Labradoodle). Or ask someone who knows dogs well to suggest a name based on the breed.
  2. Think about the meaning of the name. Some breeds are named for people or places, others are nicknames. For example, the Labrador Retriever named "Rover" because he was always running!
  3. Now think about what you'd like to call yourself. Would you rather call your dog "dog", or "pet"? Would you call your dog "Puppy" or "Buddy"?
  4. Be sure to include the name of the owner. It is a smart idea to give your dog a name that includes both your first and last names. However, it doesn't mean you should limit yourself to just including the names of family members. Your dog may grow up to be part of your family, too!
  5. Keep in mind, many pets have multiple nicknames. A cat, for example, might have multiple names depending on where she lives. She could be known as "Kitty Cat" at home but "Molly" while visiting her friends. This is especially true when cats live outdoors. They may choose to name themselves after the environment in which they live.
  6. Be creative! There is no rule that says you must follow a particular naming convention. Be unique and memorable in your choice.
  7. Check to make sure your chosen name hasn't been used by someone else or a group. You won't accidentally steal the identity of someone else!
  8. It is not easy to choose a name for your pet. Sometimes, it takes time for you to choose the right name. Keep trying until you find the right name!
