What's the funniest name you've heard of for a family pet?

[CityCommuter]

A friend told me today that they've finally named their new Shih tzu puppy who they got a week ago. He's gorgeous and fluffy and they've chosen the name Monkey! I know it's none of my business but I really don't think that name suits him and it sounds a little bit silly... but it's kinda cute at the sane time I guess!

A cat called Dave

We had a budgie called 'Buj'

The best one I saw was a massive tortoise called Shelby

Knew someone with a boxer called Delboy and a whippet called Rodney. Perfect for them

A little boy I know named one of their rescue battery hens Pokemon.

Ceefer and deefer seem to be very popular for cats and dogs respectively. Also Shelly, sheldon and voldertort for tortoises and monty for pythons. I know Victoria Peckham the hen, Minnie the Great Dane, Harriet Jones the hamster, Samantha the giant African land snail and Barbara the KC spaniel.

A cat called Clawdia

A neutered male Siamese cat called “Two Less”, when I was as a child. It was said as one word, so I thought that the name came from Siam (now Thailand) and didn’t make the connection until I was older.

Two dogs. One called Burnt Toast and another called Picnic.

Also Rover the budgie because it was very fierce - it once saw off a cat that tried to grab it.

I love it when people use boring human names. My Aunt has a dog called Gordon and she talks about it as if it is a human so you’d be forgiven for thinking as much if you didn’t know any better.

I like the family on Gogglebox with the big Rottweiler called Dave.

My mum’s friend used to have a dog called God and a cat called tac.

My parents called their cat Lickie Wah Wah.

Thankfully he never went out because there was no way I'd be shouting that in the street!

A cat called Princess Pumpkin Fluffypants.
A dog and a cat called Floozy and Discount.

We had friends with a Doberman called Doris.

And I used to ride a horse called Kevin.

Currently have Wilson, daughter's cat is nessa. I've had Brian, Barry, Bob, Hugo and Grebo.

We used to have gerbils at one point called Benson and Butler (RIP Hedges & Lambert obvs ).

We had cats called Stella & Artois. Suited them both.

Also aware of a chicken called Gregory Peck (not mine).

I had 2 guinea pigs called Hop Scotch and Pip squeak. The idea was that they were to be called hop and scotch or pip and squeak but I wanted the full names apparently so that was probably quite odd!

A dog called Ronnie Barker.

I once had to take DS2s pet to the emergency vet.

I sat there in the waiting room, and the vet came out and said in a loud voice:

"Ripjaw please".

Everyone looked around for the Rottweiler, or the snarling Alsatian, or possibly the python.

Very embarrassed, I stood up- holding the dwarf hamster.

My Late Dad had a Jack Russel who's name was The Moo, she had Friesian Cow coat markings, and was a nasty tempered little thing, so the name also came from Alf Garnett, the TV show of the time, who refered to his on-screen wife as 'The silly old Moo!

I have two cats, one called buddy, one called
Holly

I really really wanted to name my cat after a foodstuff but DH refused. He wanted to be dignified when calling the name up and down the street.

Our ferrets have always had fairly normal names.....Angel, Marley, Pink, Winnie......but my friend's ferrets are quite another story. Truly Scrumptious, Fuzzyfelt, Norbert Dentrassangle and Eddie Sobart (Bertie and Eddie for short) and another friend has a ferret called Ronald.

I'm sure I saw somewhere someone called their cat cooking fat... as in fooking cat!
