Sadie is our oldest girl her nick name is( betsy )then there is Gracie she is our one the vet said would never make it as she was to small so i fed her with an eye dropper for 14days until she learned how to latch on to momma i called her Gracie for the grace of god her lived. and then there is Mikey he is our sucky boy love to be cuddled all the time and is a mommas boy .Our little Lexi was supposed to be caddy but it just didnt suit her .and our last one was 1.8ozs when he arrived and was born c-section and i really wasnt sure how he would make it but after hand feeding him as our momma was very sick. I didnt no how i would ever part with him ,our vet kept asking so what are you calling him and i said i had not named him yet so the girls there said after all of this you will never be able to part with him so we are calling him Keeper, he is 6 months old and his name is Keeper and yes he is here forever |
I was going to name my first boy Winston for Winston Churchill and call him "Winnie," which means friend. My father looked at the picture of the pup and said he was no Winnie. He named him Max. I countered with Maximus because I love the Russell Crowe character in Gladiator. Then our Italian neighbor said Maximo and it stuck. :p Teddy is named for Teddy Roosevelt because he has a real zest for life and likes to charge into things. He is also a great outdoorsman like TR. :D |
Noel I have always wanted a yorkie, everytime I saw one I would tell my fiance Robert. Robert who is the type of man who buys me things with meaning got me Noel for Christmas and gave me a picture of him holding her on Christmas Eve (she was not ready to come home yet) So Noel is my Christmas present and my love from my fiancee.:lovewings |
Naming 3 Yorkies is not easy!!!! 3 Attachment(s) It is so interesting how people come up with names!!! I am NOT as creative as some..... We got our first Yorkie in June 2004. She was a chubby short-legged girl with a MASSIVE coat. I couldn't wait to take her home. My sister's in-laws had a dog (years ago) named Shelby..... & I LOVED that name. So hence.... I named my new little girl, SHELBY! It suited her well..... Attachment 337290 Here is Shelby. In Feb 2005, I went to pick up a little boy.... my 2nd Yorkie. He was from the same bloodline as my little girl. I wanted a name that complimented his soon to be sister..... I had my mind set to call him "Simon". I picked my little boy up, and drove almost 3 hours to get home. Once home, my hubby walked in the door and said.... "Sorry, we just can't call him Simon..... he doesn't look like a Simon at all".... so after hubby & I played and watched our little guy interact with Shelby for awhile.... hubby suggested SEYMOUR. We both agreed that it was a much better fit for him. Attachment 337291 Here is Seymour. In Sept 2010, after a few YEARS of considering a third, a good friend of mine introduced me to a little guy she called Scandel.... It is funny because I called to discuss a dogshow with her.... and I told her my consideration of a 3rd dog. I asked if she had any puppies on the way & She told me she had a little boy that she was holding on to, but had decided she might sell him. So we got to meet him and he even spent a few days with us to see how things worked out before we purchased him. Of course, he fit in like a glove! Now "Scandel" was named for a reason. He is such an active little guy and very mischievious! :D He bounces off the walls when he plays! :jump28ib: But he also is so very loving .... and cuddly.... I just couldn't call this sweetfaced little pup something so "naughty"! LOL.... Hubby, again, said that he didn't look like a "Scandel".... and decided that he defintiely looked like a SEEGER! (not to mention that hubby is a musician....) Of course we used a unique spelling.... we didn't want anyone calling him "Bob"! :D LOLOL Attachment 337292 This is Seeger! That's my story, and I am stickin to it! :p |
I really don't have a story behind my dog's names. The only one that has a bit of a story is Cleo my basset hound. I've always wanted a basset named Cleo after watching that old sit com the People's Choice with Jackie Cooper. The rest are just names I liked no particular meaning. My cats however I changed all of their names. Too many to mention. |
Our little Yorkie started out as 'Violet' which turned into a little sing-song thingy " Vee-oh-let-ah tiny, tiny Petta" and she is now called Petta 90 percent of the time, as she is our "pet-ah". Silliness plus around here! |
My Lexi got her name by a car hauler passing us with lexus on it. It just fit her perfect |
