When I first brought her home , I wanted a girly name for my baby . I had heard shorter names are easier for dogs to learn . I thought Suzi was a cute name for our girl , and she responds well to her name. :) |
I originally thought that I wanted a female puppy when I started looking, and I was sure I wanted to name the puppy Audrey, after my favorite actress Audrey Hepburn (since I didn't want to name any of my future children after her and leave them feeling like they couldn't live up to her or something). But then, I found a breeder I loved and she told me she was going into retirement from breeding and she had one litter of 2 puppies that was due in a few weeks, so if there was a female, it was mine. Unfortunately, the female in the litter didn't survive the birth, but there was a little boy and she sent me a picture. I fell in love and decided to take the boy instead. I went to see him and he was perfect. But then I was faced with what name? I thought about a few others, Bailey, Sterling, and then it clicked, Hepburn! What a perfect name! So now I have my furbaby, Hepburn, and I couldn't be happier! We call him Happy Heppie, and the kids I babysit for call him Heppie meal, because they love mcdonalds and their english isn't so good, they think heppie sounds like happy. |
When I got Tensley his name was Tank! Come on! No way was I gonna keep that name. He's of noble blood so he deserved a noble name - LOL! Looking at his AKC and all the names in his lineage was horrible. Where did these people come up with such crap? So, I did breed research for the origin, etc and thought a proper English name was in order. So, I saw the name Tenly but that sounded too feminine. So, I added to it and came up with Tensley. Then, picking and choosing from his horrible lineage names, I put together his AKC name - Tensley's Silver Ghost Hunter! |
I once have a ferret names Wiggles. and loved the name. so when We got our Schnoodle I wanted to name him Wiggles to but my Boyfriend didn't like that and hes big into baceball so we negotiated and came up with Wriggley. like Wriggleys Field. the Baseball Field. So when we Got our Yorkie Chipper we stayed with the base ball theme and named him after Chipper Jones a Big base ball player. |
She came with it! I didn't get her until she was almost 6 months old. They had been calling her Rosie so I kept it Rosie. I did add her middle name. So now she is Rosie Marie! |
Rhia got her name from the Celtic goddess Rhiannon. :) |

Hi I'm new to the Yorkie world and George is my furbaby. When my grandchildren were toddlers I would say to them '' I'm going to hug you and love you and call you George '' I think it was from a Bugs Bunny cartoon from when my own children were small. So when I told our 11 yr old granddaughter I was finally getting a puppy I asked her what do you think I should call him she said without a pause ''George''....we love George and have had a lot of people tell me they love his name ..BTW I love this site ! |
I got the name Zach from a very embarrassing and horrible situation which I really don't like to talk about but since you people are like family I guess I can tell you. In August I got involved with a major puppy scam. I was stupid and I ended up spending $3500 on this puppy scam. When we thought we were going to get the puppy we named it Zach, but there was never a puppy and I really got taken in. I was so depressed that my friend went out and got Zach for me. We thought that having the name Zach would help me get get over this trauma. I was a mess. If we ever get another male yorkie we are going to call it Oliver after my favorite musical. |

Well, my husband and I are huuuge comic book junkies and we wanted to name him after a comic book hero so we sat down and made a list but nothing seemed to fit, and he wasn't really giving us much of a reaction to anything we tried. Just as we were moving on to other random name ideas, my hubby wanted to name him Chuck Norris, the little furball comes running into the room with an ace of spades playing card in his mouth. (To this day I have no clue where he found that card) We both jumped up and said "Gambit" we didn't even think of that character! After laughing for a while, we started calling him that and he responded fairly well to it so now my little shoe destroyer is named after the card throwing X-Man, Gambit. |
In the weeks before Opi came home to us, we (me, my hubby, our son, daughter, son-in-law, daughter & fiance) would toss around names..cute names, fun names, silly names, strange names. One night we're all sitting around and my son-in-law says "she's so tiny, she needs a big name...how about Optimus Prime?" I was "huh? no! she's a little girl!" Well let me tell you, while she was a gift to me from my hubby, and she was my baby..I was completely overruled, out-voted, and I lost..lol. My family went nuts for that name. :confused: no matter what name i came up with or my arguments against the name..i couldn't win. They whole lot of them to to our family & friends and all over facebook people loved her name. I had one request/demand.. that while her official name is Optimus Prime, I wanted it to sound cute, so I came up with Opi, for her initials obviously..both her names are a hit! she does have many nicknames..dopie, dopamine, littlemus prime, the dopester, opidoodles. I will say..she does really act like she's as big as her name sounds. :) |
Shoes, Brazilian Porn Star,Hispanic name,the song Copacabana, Beer and Texas BQ.:D |
I wanted to name our dog Toby but my sons thought that was a stupid name. So they named him Sammy after Sammy Sosa who played for the Cubs at that time. We are Yankees fans so I don't know how we wound up with a dog named after another team's player LOL. |
[QUOTE=Heck, I always thought Elizabeth and Sparrow would be together at the end anyway - boy did I get that wrong! LOL[/QUOTE] :thumbup: ME TOO!!! Or rather, thought they should be together :) |
