| Should I change his name? You know, I've never really been fond of Riley's name. It fit him when he was a playful puppy but now he's an elegant and sophisticated adult Yorkie with refined taste and I'm thinking he needs a name that fits...maybe something like Tristan. Am I crazy? Here are a few pictures...what do you all think? |

| If you are not happy with his name, you can change it and he will learn his new name and adjust to the change in time. |

| True, I like Riley as a human name anyway. But maybe you'll catch yourself tripping over your words trying to call him something else? I guess you could experiment! Let us know if it works!!!! Good luck! |

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | Personally, I love the name Riley. But if you really don't like it, then you should change it.

| How old is he? I think Riley is a cute name. Personally I wouldn't change my little one's name.

| Riley sure is a beautiful kid! As far as another name goes, that is surely up to you. I think in time he will get to know it. |

| Riley is 2 1/2. I named him when he was about 5 months old...that's when we got him but his name doesn't seem to fit him now. I'll leave it though...he has enough issues already...don't want to confuse my little guy any further! LOL! I'd love to see pictures of JPop...I didn't think Riley had a twin! Are JPop's ears still black too? Riley's never turned tan on the back of them. |

| I think Riley is a great name....... but you could add a middle name or start calling him "Sir Riley" if you want to use something different without confusing him........ he DOES look like ROYALTY, right?
