Changing Your Yorkies Name - Mean? Confusing? Stewie's nickname was Monster. Now its shortened down to "Monst". We NEVER call him his name. Ever. My dad refuses to call him Stewie (I live upstairs from my dad so we are together everyday)He only calls him "Monst". As I type this, my dad is yelling for him from the other room. He no longer knows his name is Stewie. Monst is such a force of habit! Is this mean? Are we confusing him? and have you inadvertently changed your Yorkie's name to his/her nickname? |
"Monst", how funny. I seriously doubt it would confuse them. I think eventually they learn to respond to many words/sound of your voice.... Besides, Yorkie's are soooo smart!!! :D |
That is cute...and original...Monst..perfect for Halloween. I think they can get used to severla different names just as we do. I am sure he lves it. :cool: |
I think Monst is great!!!! Very cute name!!! heheh!!!! PS--go Tribe!!!!!! |
I hope it isn't mean or confusing because we have done the same thing. We have called Lily 'wookie' forever. She only listens to me when she feels like it anyway so I guess it doesn't matter what I call her. |

Poor Lexi is in the same boat, we were at the vets yesterday and they kept calling her Alexis and she wouldn't responde the tech came in and said it's Lexi and she jumped and turned around to see. They then all started saying Lexi. She does have many names though :rolleyes: and the only 2 she doesn't responde to are Alexis, or Alexis Lynn. My husband mostly calls her baby girl. |
My "Tinker Belle" must be really confused then! We call her........ Tink Muffin scruppy smink poo-head beee-beee ........or anything else that comes to mind..... sometimes a combination of those above, (scruppy-muffin) oh, and then theres.... sminker-doodle doodle noodle stroodle she doesn't seem to care WHAT we call her! |
Yeah same problem here, her real name is Princess Porscha Kay um porscha when I want her to listen but more than everything else Porka! I dunno it's sounds good hahahah |
Out of 7 younguns not one is called by just one name. Midori was Dori-dooz; Cruiser is Cruiseman; Remi is Rem-dooz; My hubby is not imaginative with nicknames so he just calls them by their real name twice. Remi is Rem-Rem; Skylar is Sky-Sky; Snickers is Snick-Snick. You get the idea. They respond to each name we call them . I have a gorgeous new girl-with her tongue sticking out all the time. She has not named herself yet, but when I use my high-pitched baby voice or praise voice, she comes running..She is 13 weeks old and under 2 pounds so I have to call her often to make sure she is okay, so I hafta name her soom or she will think "Mommie's baby" is her name.. |
