Is your Yorkie named after a famous character/song or famous person? - Page 20 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Prettygia · 04-24-2011, 08:16 PM

yes my little one is named Jolie after non other Angelina Joilie!

dawn27 · 04-25-2011, 10:14 AM

Yes and it is all because of my husbands and his odd/strange obsessions with SyFy and female music artists:

Sheena (cat) = Sheena Easten
Nalla (cat) = Nally form Lion King
Mariah (cat) = Mariah Carey
Miah Michelle Miller (Yorkie)= Sarah Michelle Gellar "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"
Ruby Bella' (Yorkie) = Ruby a demond from SyFy show "Supernatural"

SHALL I GO ON....?

Yep, all "charcters" here (well except one cat that my son named Chooch because he LOVED trains

)

Alice - for Alice Cullen from the Twilight saga
Miya - after the Husky Miya in the movie "8 Below"
Darla - I had watched "Little Rascals" the movie that day

Summer - my favorite character on the show "The OC" (off air now

)

My little girl is "Lady Windsor" aka Winnie. Windsor is the last name of the Royal family. Since, she is a princess and Yorkshire is an english breed, I thought it was only fitting.

candi- rhymed with sandy (from grease my fav movie at the time- i was 10!)
kitty- after hello kitty
bambi- that one's obvious
river- after the character in joss whedons 'firefly'... any fans!?!
dexter- after the series dexter

does a registered name instead of pet name count?
Poppets kc name is FireFly too; it was gonna be serenity, but there is Nothing serene about her!- just cuz i'm a bit of a whedon geek!

every litter i raise is named after a tv series- this time its Charmed, so atm we have Piper, Phoebe, Paige, Prue, Billie, Coop and Leo!

and kuki is after a chimp from the animal planet series monkey buisness/ monkey life, but i'm not sure if that counts either!

My yorkie name is Brooklyn because Im new to Brooklyn and I like it! I think he likes it too!

DJDB · 02-02-2012, 01:05 PM

Ozzy Osbourne. I don't particularly like the name and it doesn't suit him at all. Oz is the most docile, submissive, happy little guy. I would never look at him and associate him with a heavy metal singer. My b/f picked the name. I think he would suit something like Romeo, Sweety-Pie, BabyFace, or Roo.

Taryn0405 · 02-03-2012, 01:05 PM

Gizmo after the Gremlin.

I wanted to name him Spunky or Porkchop though.

beecee · 02-03-2012, 01:42 PM

Jimmy after James Dean, but ya'll know that

Jeepmom · 02-03-2012, 03:06 PM

Gizmo from gremlins- fits his split personality
Nigel- from Frasier
Marjarita- not a person but a great drink

Dellanok · 02-03-2012, 03:17 PM

Yes, Jasper is named after a raccoon that Laura Ingalls had as a pet in Little House on the Prairie. Ya, that pretty much dates me...lol

yorkiedallas · 02-03-2012, 06:59 PM

My YT is named Dallas because:
1.) He has the prettiest blue silver coat, just like Cowboy colors
2.) He is a proud mini-Texan
3.) He thinks he is the biggest, baddest thing ever.

enchilila · 02-03-2012, 07:22 PM

Mine is obvious. The dh named her Betty Boop after Betty Boop!

NewYorksBrandy · 02-03-2012, 07:32 PM
