Funny/cute/witty/daft… let’s hear ‘em.

When my exh (named Dave) and I got our first dog we named him Rodney. After Dave.

We have a dog called Rodney. At least, that was his name initially but it soon became Roddy as it’s just easier to say. He is mostly just Rod these days, which I like because when the kids were little, they had a story book called ‘Rod the dog’.

My friends cat was called K9

I live this

I'm a big fan of 'human' names for dogs and cats.

A friend of mine had a wonderful, now sadly deceased, JRT named Colin. I loved him.

I'm not saying this is a good name, but when my brother and I were in Germany we distinctly heard a man summon his GSD by the name of Adolf. We did a double take and looked at eachother to confirm but we'd both heard it.

A sausage dog called Richmond

I heard of a pair of dogs called Whiskey and Soda.

I had a cat which had a name but answered (sort of) to 'Cat'.

William can’t remember what breed but he definitely looked like a William

Growing up we had a dog named Mack the Knife after the Bobby Darin song. He was always referred to by his full name and I always thought the song was about him! He was quite intimidating.
In those days, dogs often took themselves off for a walk😀

A friend has got a Newfoundland called Mouse.

I know a Cocker Spaniel called Jarvis( Jarvis Cocker)

Deefa

(Dee fa[for] dog)

We had a rabbit called Arthur (r for rabbit) in the basis of meeting a dog called Deefer :)

Not a dog.
We got dd a rabbit years ago and the assistant wrote Rab on the box.
She was forever known as Rab C Niblett
Rabsie for short.

I know someone with a greyhound called Mouse.

a greyhound called Mouse.

That's kind of appropriate though. They look like mice. Long skinny mice.

Chaos! Very apt fir the dog in question.

I worked in a boarding kennel at one point and we heard some fab names. There was a bull mastiff called Mouse who was a regular, and a total sweetheart. There was also a cat called Everest- because he liked to climb!

I know a Cocker Spaniel called Jarvis( Jarvis Cocker)

Me too! Does his owner clean windows?

My gran had a dog called Steve.

Tempest

I had a Jack Russell dog called Mister. I had him from a rescue centre in the 1970 era. He was given the name Mister,by an old guy who was in charge of the rescue place.. I chose him, out of about 10 other dogs,
I used to feel a bit stupid, when calling out his name on walks ,if he ever ran ahead of me etc. many men would turn around to look..!

Labrador brothers called Henry and Dyson.
They lived up to their names!

I met a poodle called Noodle once.

I love Nick Grimshaws dog “Pig”.

We had a black lab called “Jason”. Best dog ever.

Monty and Carlo.
Talullah.
Julie.
All lovely dogs.

I had a border collie called Comet. His mother was Hailey, so he was Hailey’s Comet.

I now have Lord Archibald, obviously known as Archie. Ex-racer who didn’t know his name at all when we got him. I believe his kennel name was linked to his ear tattoos.
