This topic kinda rubs me the wrong way reputable breeders do not use the word teacup period so why should we? You won't see people out there selling "teapots" and jacking there price up ridiculously so no harm is done with the nick name but with teacups if you are using that word you are saying yep there fine so go look for your teacup. So what is the point of this? Do you want to call your puppy a teacup? To those of us who are educated about the breed feel like when someone uses the word teacup that they must not be educated in the breed. The standard is not to exceed 7 pounds so any yorkie under that is standard not a miniature or anything like that. Personally I think a teacup is something to drink tea out of and a teapot is the pot your tea is in.
