How To
How to choose the best name for your pet
The most important decision you will make when adopting an animal is choosing a name. Names should reflect the personality and character of your pet.
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. Finally, think about how you'd like to be referred. You might be more inclined to call yourself "dog", or "pet".
Here are some tips that will help you get started.
-
Name your dog a name that reflects its breed. Look up names that are associated with the breed if you are familiar with it (e.g. Labradoodle). Ask someone with a good knowledge of dogs to suggest a name.
-
Take into account the meaning behind the name. Some breeds are named after people and places while others are simply nicknames. For example, the Labrador Retriever named "Rover" because he was always running!
-
How would you like to be called? Do you prefer to be called "dog?" or "pet?" Would you prefer to refer to your dog as "Puppy," or "Buddy",?
-
Don't forget to include the owner's first name. 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. You may have your dog as a part of your extended family.

Many pets may have more than one name. A cat, for instance, could go by different names depending upon where she lives. 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. It is important to pick something distinctive and memorable.
-
Check that your chosen name isn't used by any other person or group. So you don't accidentally steal someone's identity.
