How and why did u choose name... - Page 4 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Sasha's litter name was Sassy... So I wanted something that sounded pretty close to that. I really do like the name too... Her registered name alludes to the fact that she was a little sneak when she was a puppy "Sasha's Midnight Affaire." I wanted her to sound important but also a little dark and mysterious in a sneaky way. I am so glad she grew out of being a little sneak!! I would love her no matter what though.

We named our lilttle girl "Baby". It just seemed like a fitting name and my husband and I have the hardest time agreeing on any names .I kinda wanted to name her sophie but after we talked about Baby it was settled.

Mine was named Bonnie, because that is what she was to us. She wasn't the so called perfect Yorkie, but she had a great personality, she was very pretty. She hated grooming and bathing, but if you told her she was pretty afterward she would prance around.

Cpt. Jack Sparrow came about because we adopted an all black kitten a couple years ago and named her Black Pearl. (Along with Pearl came her gray and white brother, Milo and we have an orange tabby named Mr. Poops - named as such because when he was little, he would hide behind the furniture and jump out and attack your feet - I wanted to call him Sh*& head but didn't think that would be very nice, so I settled on Mr. Poops. However, his vet records have his name listed as Bonsai.) Since we had the Black Pearl, it was only fitting to name him Cpt. Jack Sparrow. Jack for short or bubba, bubby, bubsy, buddy, stinker, stinky, stink a dink, cutie patootie, little stinker, Jackus, Jackus sprackus, Jack sprat, Jack a roo.... He comes to just about anything. LOL

My little girl always has a scrunchie in her hair, and the little girls of the neighborhood could not remember her real name, Andromeda; so they started calling her," Lil fu fu girl". It just kind of stuck!

My morkie's name is Tanner. When we met with the breeder he stuck out the most to me. He looked perfect. I took me a little while to figure out what to call him. He is black with tan legs and a tan face, his tail also has tannish highlights. So I decided to name him Tanner. We call him Tan Tan, The Tan Man, Tan Tan the Man Man and Goofy, because he is "goofy" Looking back I don't think I could have picked a better name for him.

Our mutt Marvin was named by the Humane Society and we never changed it...We call him Marv, Marvolo, marvin the moron (when he is dopey) Marvin the Martian from the Looney Toons Cartoon

The little Yorkie we found was so scruffy when we picked him up off the street we named him Fizz-gig after the little "dog" thing in the Movie "The Dark Crystal" We call him fizz, fizzy, fizzelsprung, and Fizzel Wizzel, and lil bit

When I got Boo Boo i was camping for the summer with my family. As soon as I got him to the campsite he instantly bonded with my Aunt's cocker spaniel, who sorta adopted him as her own. From day one he followed Coco everywhere she went, it reminded me of Yogi and Boo Boo, hence his name.

I planned on naming my

baby Cerise... which is French for cherry. I LOVE all things French and it is a part of my heritage. The amazing thing is that her wonderful breeder had named her first...hot pink puppy (which is my favorite color

) to mark and identify her by, when she was born, and then days later changed it to Cerise... before I even joined YT. I joined with her name already chosen and was willing to wait for the right Yorkie to fill my heart. One day I saw a post in the Yorkie for sale/wanted section and was in shock

When I saw her with her name and realized she was named before I joined I knew it was fate, and she was MY

BABY

That's such a cute story, I think kids can make such cute nicknames; I love the name "Lil fu fu girl!"

Wow, what a cool story, I'm sure you believe in fate!

Our lil girl is named Shayna. After changing her name about 3x, I just kept thinking how beautiful she was, so I remembered my grandma used to call me Shayna Punim when I was growing up, which means Beautiful Face in yiddish and that was it. So that's my reminder of my Grandma, my heritage and love of this beautiful face.
