| Furbabies names! Hey everyone! I've noticed on here that everyone has such CUTE names for their little babies! I was just wondering how each person came up with their individual pup's name. I'll start... my little Oliver was named because he was the tiniest little guy in his litter but the one with the most personality and I immediately thought of Oliver Twist (noo idea why haha) so I named him Oliver for short How did you come up with your puppy's name??? I can't wait to hear all the cute stories!

| Fun topic! My husband actually named Wolfie. The lil guy thinks he is ten ft. tall and bullet proof so he is named after the great mythic warrior Beowulf.

| Our baby's name officially is Little Sammy Star but we call him Sammy. My sons named him after Sammy Sosa (and we're Yankees fans, go figure!). I wanted to name him Toby but I was overruled!! No matter what his name, he is loved to pieces!! |

| Lil Bit is really "Bonnie Blue" - at least that is the name we decided on when my husband got her, but she was such a Lil Bit that we started calling her Lil Bit. Beamer was named by the breeders son - he had a BMW. She said I could change his name when I got him, but I figured he had had the name for almost a year and he was probably as close to a BMW as I could get - so hence he is still "Beamer"

| Jackson came about the week before I picked him up. I had a picture of him (before I even met him) and had a list of doggy names I liked. My mom & I had just watched Walk the Line w/ Johnny Cash and we loved his song 'Jackson' and I sang it karaoke as a joke, lol. Well... the name just stuck. I kept looking at his pic and nothing else stuck out to me... my aunt had also joked that we could call him Jackson Five and I am a fan of MJ as well so the name worked out!

| The day I got Mr. Darcy I thought through the men I felt represented the epitomy of a man- and Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice (Colin Firth!) came to mind......then when I decided to get another Yorkie, a little girl this time Miss Lizzie was the obvious choice- so my 2 furbabies are Mr. Darcy and Miss Lizzie!!!

| Fynnlie has been changed from the original, Finley. It means "Fair Warrior" in Scottish. Since Yorkies are from Northern England - really close to Scotland, I thought it was cute. Plus, he'll have to be a little warrior with my Main Coon cat, Tugger! Also, I hope to get Fynnlie into being a Therapy Dog, so he'll be my little warrior there, too!

| When I went to get my little one I had no idea what to name him. I had already bought a carrier, bed, food, toys, harness, leash etc. The most I have ever spent on a puppy before. I said if he was a girl I would have named her Tiffany after Tiffany's in NYC! Got to thinking of expensive things and the name Bentley came to mind!! It just clicked and that was it!! |

| Rosie was already named when we got her. But I never had a little girl, only boys so I added a middle name for her. So, on her papers her name is now Rosie Marie. Ha ha. She thinks she is my daughter too so I treat her like one. Spoiled as much as possible!! |

| Well, we saw Cody before picking his name. I actually wanted to name him CJ, but my mother didn't agree and was all "no we need something better". She we kept throwing names back and forth and finally settled on Cody. I however was going to get my way with the middle name and he is now Cody Julian. Once we get his sister she will be Chasidy Jade |
