Guest roo Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 Well, with their pedigree names i sort of pre plan them, but their pet names sort of just come to me, we once had a dog i was going to call Bruce, but he ended up being a Horace. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 With our babies, Kika already came with a name. Kenzo we chose. Since Shibas are from Japanese origin, we wanted something to reflect that. So, we came up with too Japanese names. Once we got him he was SOO much a Kenzo, and not Yoshi. For his pedigree, we based it off of the meaning of Kenzo. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 My cat is name Minou b/c when I was living in France that is how they called their cats. Growing up I had a cat name "kitty" since they usually only come to that, so i figured my cat might come to Minou One of my dogs is name after Serge Gainsbourg, a french singer from the 70s. He is one of my ex-boyfriend's favorite singers. We lived in France together. Unfortunately most people think he is named after the drink or a surge of electricity. My new dog is named Kingston... I got him in Kingston and wanted to name him something Jamaican since we are living here now. But couldn't think of anything so just started calling him that. I've had him a few weeks. I wanted to change his name but it might be too late. I was thinking of calling him Zion. Maybe Kingston of Zion. Quote
science_doc Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 Our cats are named Aidan - for Aidan Quinn cause he had blue eyes and Mina - short for Willamina I think from interview with a vampire (these cat's were named before I came on the scene, so I am venturing a recollection LOL). Our dog was named Abigail - from my favorite Steven King book The Stand. I just loved mother Abigail when I read the book :P Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 Cadie is really short for Cadence. My husband really enjoyed marching band in the past and still has a great appreciation for music. Her "pet" name from me is Cadie-Bear...I have no idea how that one came about, but it stuck. Quote

Guest Anonymous Posted July 20, 2002 Posted July 20, 2002 we rescued our first dog from a shelter and the whole way home we were racking our brains to find a name. He is a Pit Bull/Boxer mix and I was trying to think of a good sturdy name. I was trying to associate something with BOXER. And at the same time...my boyfriend and I looked at each other and said "How about ROCKY?" Like in the movies (Rocky Balboa). The second pup we got from a breeder and I had no idea what to name her..so I looked on the internet for some ideas and we named her Lexie. Her UKC registered name is Princess Alexis. I couldn't think of anything. With the pup we are expecting in October, we already have a name picked out. The breeder we are getting her from has Century in their title, so we are going to name her 'STORM of the century.' Quote
