How To
How to choose a name for your pet.
When adopting a pet, the name you choose for them is one of your most important decisions. 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. Finally, think about how you'd like to be referred. You might be more inclined to call yourself "dog", or "pet".
These are some tips to get you started.
-
Name your dog a name that reflects its breed. Look up the names of the breeds if you know the breed (e.g. Labradoodle). Or ask someone who knows dogs well to suggest a name based on the breed.
-
Consider the meaning behind the name. Some breeds were named after people or specific places, while others are just names. For example, the Labrador Retriever named "Rover" because he was always running!
-
How would you like to be called? Is it more fun to be called "dog" than "pet"? Are you more likely to call your dog "Puppy" than "Buddy?"
-
Remember to include the first name of your owner. Although it's a good idea to name your dog with your last name, don't forget to include the names of your family members. Your dog could become part of your family as well!
-
Remember that pets can have multiple names. A cat, for example, might have multiple names depending on 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. Many cats adopt their names to suit their environment.
-
Be creative! There are no rules that say you have to follow a certain naming convention. You just need to choose something that is unique and memorable.
-
Be sure to check that your chosen name does not already belong in the hands of another person or organization. This way you won't accidentally take someone else's identity.
-
Remember that choosing the right name for your pet can be difficult. Sometimes it takes some time to decide if a name is right. Keep looking until you find that perfect name.
