Your opinions on this original name please... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Safire · 04-09-2011, 06:36 PM

My current yorkie's name is Tetley, as in the tea. I'm adopting another yorkie, a 5 yr old female, next week and her name is Cleo. I'm not big on the name Cleo, I find myself always having to think about it before I say it (doesn't roll off my tongue easily) so I want to change her name once she comes to live with us.

I'm all about original names, and I want a name that matches with Tetley's. I came up with the name Pekoe (as in orange pekoe tea).

What do you think? Is it cute? Hideous? I kinda think it's fun to say. Am I crazy?

I think it is cute. I love original names. I also love sticking with themes for your pets (hence both my dogs being named after designers). I think if you want you should switch it. You are also sticking with a name that rhymes with the current name so it will probably help them learn the new name easily.

Very cute

itsbaddangel · 04-09-2011, 07:08 PM

I like it too! Pekoe is similar in sound for Cleo to get used to, too.

Any tea name would be cute in combination!

boopster · 04-09-2011, 07:57 PM

If Cleo is already five years old, will she adapt well to a new name? I don't know... But I do think Pekoe would be a cute name.

I love the name Pekoe.

I love unusual names and think you have a winner for a name.
