Dilys (produced Dill-iss). Friends have a rabbit called Dilys and I think it's brilliant!

I used to have a dog called Maureen. I'd be standing calling her and people would look at me -probably wondering why my mother in law was in the bushes! 😂

Another of my pets is Beryl (hence my username)

And another is Edith.

All great names!

Frank is right, what were we thinking. PHOTO. PHOTO.

I am not giving out any suggestions until I see a photo!

Bet its cute. Saw a tea cup Yorkie puppy yesterday...

GuppytheCat · 26/04/2022 16:47

You're brave, OP! I know children called every one of your 'old lady' names barring Ethel.

How about Edna or Doreen?

InstantSunshine · 26/04/2022 16:47

Yes Lettice! It's delightful.
