No Longer a Member | Rizzo reminded me of a muppet, so I started looking up muppet names and Rizzo was the little "Jersey-Italian" rat with an "attitude" lol, so it worked for me because I wanted him to have an Italian name for my landlords family's sake. Plus my favorite cafe near work is "Cafe Rizzo" actually didn't notice until after I named him, but I figure I might have to aquire one of their cups before I leave Italy. |

| I named my first one Milou form the Belgian cartoon Ten Ten and his dog Milou I named my second one Jean because from the day she came home she was always scratching her nails on my jeans. Off course if I new from the beginning that I would have to Yorkies, I would have named the one Gin and the other Tonic or the one French and the other Fries Maria |

| Arabella Lilliana When I lived in Montreal I would watch The Road To Avonlea, there was an episode that had one of the sisters come home, you guessed it her name was Arabella. The name stuck with me, I don't know it is a good old fashioned name that you just don't hear now a days. Well, 14 years later I decided to get a Yorkie and instantly knew what her name was going to be. My daughter came up with the middle name. She was looking through Italian baby names and came up with Lilliana. It just flows together nicely. Plus, Bella knows that if mommy uses the full name she'd better start using the "I'm sorry and I Love You" face.

| I had lots of names picked out for my little guy but didn't choose any before getting him. I still hadn't decided on a name on my way home with him in the car. I was thinking if he was a girl I would have named him Tiffany because of all the things I bought for him before bringing him home. Then I got to thinking of expensive cars and Bentley came to mind like a light bulb going off. So, my handsome boy's name is Bentley!! |

| My male Maltese was a Christmas gift from my husband so we named him Casey Kringle. So when we brought home a little girl Yorkie puppy we decide to stick with a C names. I wanted to name her Charm and no one liked it and I couldn't come up with anything that fit her. She went a week with no name and in the middle of the night my husband woke me and said Chloe and it fit her perfectly. When I got my second Yorkie pup I again wanted to name her Charm and got vetoed again. Again it took about a week when sister suggested Claire and I loved that name and my granddaughter added the bear after Care Bears, so she became Claire Bear. When I got my 3rd Yorkie I was firm and put my foot down and said 3's a Charm and that is her name. She is a little Charmer and it fits her personality. |

| In our family, it is tradition for my husband to name our dogs. He takes his job very seriously and always comes up with names that we love. He named our first dog 'Keesu'. She was a Shih-Tsu and Keeshond mix so her name was created from her breed. Kee-su Then he named Skye after the Greek word for 'dog' which is 'Skylos'. When we adopted Milli, she was SO TINY. So, he decided to call her Milli as in the 'millimeter'. Her middle name is Jewel - after the actress Jewel Staite. |

| Great stories everyone . I guess I never really explained why Hannah named Our Yorkie Daisy when Hannah and her friend Ollie were in the hospital , they seemed to be the 2 that spent the most time there they both love Thomas the train and would spend hours playing trains together ,at night Ollie and his mom would usually come for a visit before bedtime Ollie would climb into bed with Hannah and they would snuggle and watch a Thomas movie. When Ollie got Rosie Hannah , decided that is what she wanted for her wish too , and follow suite and Named her Daisy. Last edited by Daisy2010; 09-13-2010 at 09:21 AM. |

| Great idea for a thread! My husband loves to choose names but from what I understand he found the most ridiculous names when he had pets in earlier years. So when we got our fur baby I was quite concerned with his suggestions. I had a long list of names but finally settled for "Merlin". Hubby didn't like it at first but when my girlfriends all were on my side he agreed and now he thinks I chose well....as always, just takes him some time to realize it

| Beamer had his name when we got him. The breeder's son had a BMW and he named him Beamer. As he a year old when I got him I kept his name as Beamer. (And he is as close to a BMW as I'll get LOL) With Lil Bit, she was a puppy and were thinking of names for her. I had none in mind. The name has to fit the puppy, and I knew her name would come to me. Then I decided on "Bonnie Blue", and my husband said she is just a Little Bit, so then and there and ever since she has been "Lil Bit"

| DH is a big Snoopy (from Peanuts) fan, and when I was thinking about getting a puppy, DD thought that naming a puppy Snoopy would help convince DH that a puppy would be a good idea. It worked, and now DH and Snoopy are inseparable.
