How To
How to choose a name for your pet.
Name selection is one of most important decisions when you adopt a pet. You want to pick a name that reflects who they are and what kind of personality they have.
It is important to consider how other people might refer to you - for instance, if they are going to be called by their name in conversation. You should also consider how you would like to be called. For instance, do you prefer "dog" or "pet"?
Here are some tips for getting started.
-
Name your dog a name that reflects its breed. If you know the breed (e.g., Labradoodle), look up the names associated with that breed. Ask someone who has a deep understanding of dogs for suggestions on naming a dog after the breed.
-
Consider the meaning behind the name. Some breeds are named for people or places, others are nicknames. For example, the Labrador Retriever named "Rover" because he was always running!
-
How would you like to be called? Are you more comfortable calling your dog "dog" or "pet?" Would you prefer to refer to your dog as "Puppy," or "Buddy",?
-
Be sure to include the name of the owner. While it is sensible to name your dog after your last name, you don't have to limit your options to include names of family members. Your dog may grow up to be part of your family, too!
-
Keep in mind, many pets have multiple nicknames. A cat could have several names, depending on her location. At home, she could be called "Kitty Cat", but when visiting friends, "Molly". This is especially true of cats who live outdoors. They will often adapt their names to match their environment.
-
Be creative There are no rules stating that you have to stick to one naming convention. You just need to choose something that is unique and memorable.
-
Check to make sure your chosen name hasn't been used by someone else or a group. So you don't accidentally steal someone's identity.
-
Finally, remember that choosing a name for your pet isn't an exact science. Sometimes, it takes time for you to choose the right name. Keep at it until you find the right match.
