Who pick out your pup name I was wondering if I was the only one who didn't get to pick the name of their yorkie pup. my first yorkie my son named Ichabob for the life of me I can't remember why there was a reason. My 2ed yorkie Wicket my husband name him the moment he laid eyes one him because he remind him of an Ewok from star wars. My thrid yorkie was suppose to be my moms, again my husband comes up with Ted D. Bear because he look like a bear cub. I did shorten it to Teddy, but since Teddy never went to live with my mom, my husband now calls him Ted D. Hubbie tells everyone that there mine little runts but I make sure they know he named those little runts. :) |
I got to pick Bandit's name (my teaching aide came up with it after seeing a picture) and DH agreed, and he picked Nala's name and I agreed (although she responds better to her nickname...crackhead:rolleyes:) |
I got to pick it, although I had to listen to all of the suggestions.:D |
i named each of mine...then again i am not marry or have kids....lol |
My husband named my female, Georgia (female dog version of Curious George :)). And I named my male, Chewy (after Chewbacca and the fact he is a chewer). I almost named Chewy, Teddy B. because he looked like a teddy bear (just like you hehe) but then decided to go with Chewy. I am glad I got to name one of them at least! |
My boy's and hubby named both of mine. Well I actually did name the first one but the name never made it through. |
Ultimately my mom picked Kharmello's name. We had afew names pre-picked buy after meeting him we figured none of our names fit, so we came up with a new list. After awhile Kharmello kind of stayed but I will always call him Cody for short! :) |
Out of 5....2 were named by my daughter and I....the others I kept their registered names. |

We had a family vote . So I guess I did name them , but not alone... I could of pulled veto power if I really wanted to ;) My son came up with Sydney and we had about 4 more names , the family took a secret vote and Sydney won. Chloe was also named by family vote. I was stuck on Mia , Zoe/Chloe , Piper , Lily and a few others. I just couldn't decide...The boys really liked Chloe best and dh liked it too so I went with what everyone seemed to like. So we have a Sydney and a Chloe both names by us all :) |
When we adopted Barley he was already named by either the shelter or the adoption agency. I didn't care for the name at first and before getting him thought about changing it. But when I seen him in person and knew how bad his life had to have been I just couldn't change it. :rolleyes: sounds stupid, but he was very obviously abused before making it to the shelter and since they gave him the name and it started him on his new life, I just couldn't change it. Then when we got Bijou I asked my daughter to think of a girly name that would flow well with Barley's. She came up with Bijou right away and within ten minutes of having her with us she was named. That's the fastest we've ever named a pet LOL Normally it takes days for us all to agree on one :D It interesting to hear how everyone came up with their name choices! Cool thread! :clapsmile Thanks for sharing!!! |
Picking My Yprkie Names My husband has named all 3 of ours. Our first one he surprised me on Valentine's Day saying he was taking me to pick out an orchid. So of course she had to be named Orchid. The second he named Cactus Jake (a female) and our latest Elf (a male). At first the names all sound a bit weird but eventually seem to fit. Interesting thread - glad someone started it. |
I kept the name the breeder picked for him. She named him Chase, and we couldn't have picked a more fitting name. He loves chasing us, and we are always chasing him (he's a very busy boy ;)). |
My 16 year old son wanted to name (MY mothers day gift) our first female Roxy, but it sounded wrong, so I got to name her Princess Contessa- (Tessie). She has an attitude to match. He named the 2 boys Calvin and Hobbes after his favorite comic strip. They are brothers but 6 months apart. My husband didn't care because he has nick names for them anyway. |
I usu pick out a name before getting the puppy. I picked Gypsy cause I always wanted a long hair dog named Gypsy. I made hubby promise not to give her one of his nicknames. For example he calls or Boston terrier who is named Sophie, Stomp cause she stomps around. |
I actually knew what my my little girls name was going to be before I even got her. Missy's name is short for Miss Lady Jane. She is named after my mom. I lost her suddenly late last summer and it was a very difficult time for me. It's actually why I decided to get a puppy. Maybe not the best of reasons but I needed something to focus on and get me through. My moms real name was Mary Jane but my Gram always called her Lady Jane when she was in trouble. Mom didn't like the name but some how I know she does now. |
I had her name picked out before we met. The day I went to meet her for the first time, the question everyone asked me was "does she look like an Armani". Funny thing is I thought it was original only to find out that she is one of several Armanis at doggy daycare...LOL! |
I named our first baby, Bella. She was named after her fur mother, a beautiful and sweet shih tzu/chihuahua mix. Even if that wasn't her fur mama's name, I would have still gone with the name Bella. As for Rocco, I had a rather long list of male names to choose from. His original name was Scooter (named so by the breeder) but I let my husband have the final say. So Rocco it is! And everyone since then says that he looks very much like a Rocco. :) |
hubby suggested Hot Rod and that stuck. We wanted something in the car theme so he came up with mag wheels --Maggie, so I said Maggie May. It worked out great cause she is born in May and I like the Rod Stewart song. lol |

Hot Rod is SOO freakin cute :D |
I picked out my first Yorkies name.I love the Yankees and Derek Jeter is my Favorite Yankee player. I had my little Jeter's picked out for 10 years befor I got my sweet boy. Sadly he passed away January 15 of this year, he was just over 2 years old. I miss my Jeter so much:( With Axl, my oldest son picked it out when we went to our breeders house, I wanted it to be DeMagio but when Mason saw Axl playing he just knew that was going to be his nam. His Full name has DeMagio in it so I still got it in their LOL With my lil Girl Yumi Yasha, my husband and 4 boys all said that we should give her a cute Japanese name. Yumi means Beautiful and Yasha is spirit/demon in Japanese. I wanted to name her Babe Ruth, but her Japanese name sur fits her to a tee!! |
I was lucky to finally name this yorkie.her call name is Tessa . Her regisstered name will be Barefoot Contessa with her breeders name on front after she is spade and I get her limited akc reg. papers. Vicki |
I picked Katie's name mu hubby picked Suzi's and my daughter picked Odie's as he's her puppy. Hugs Shirl x x |
I'm happy to say I get to pick the name. (He (puppy) comes home in 5 weeks!) I do listen to my husband and son on what they don't like however. For example, one of my favorites was Sundance. Husband said he didn't like that one. That was fine, I have list! Right now my favorites are Copper and Cowboy. Son doesn't really like Cowboy, but...he is 24, probably moving out this year...so...my dog...I'm going to name him what I think fits and what I like! :animal-pa My husband is a sweetie and doesn't really care, but I do want him to like what I pick. :) |
i picked my yorkie's name, princess kona mocha latte, "kona" my family was not a fan of, kona, for a girl ... they said it sounded like a boys name ;P |
I named Rucker after my favorite singer ever, Darius Rucker (used to be lead singer of Hootie and the Blowfish and is now a country singer). |
I did.. I guess.. I brought it up and everyone agreed. :) |
My husband had both a female and a male name picked out before we got our Yorkie. We only had two males to choose from so Zeus it was. My husband loved the idea of a big name for a tiny pup. Zeus lives up to his name:D |
