Best pet name you’ve heard

[Soubriquet]

I watched a video today and a woman’s pet sphynx cat that she called Nudacris. That tickled me

There's a lady local to us, who has a Dachsund. We were walking our Labrador and my then 5 year old daughter shouted, "Aah! Sizzles!" and made a fuss of the Dachsund.

I was explaining Charlie and Lola to her and she said, "I know, it's actually his name."

I’ve met a couple of times the most glorious white standard poodle called Mark IV.

A Labrador na Jason

*named

Is there a reference to get there, or just the unusualness of it?

I had a greyhound called Barry - his racing name had been Bernie Scripps (the old man who ran the garage in Heartbeat).

He had a little terrier friend in the same village called Brian. We met in the vets once and rendered the receptionists helpless when Barry and Brian sat together and then had to be called in.

Were they pugs in Lincolnshire? My very lovely posh friend has two pugs called Barry and Colin 💕

I.met a dog in the park named Megan Barkle.

My friend had a pet cat called Pushkin

Let's assume you were right...

My favourite is Molly Wobbles for Molly Weasley. It's a shame we don't find out what she calls Arthur.

We were walking in the park and a man was screaming "Haggis! Get out that water! Come here Haggis!"

It was so funny, I am naming my next dog Haggis.

One of the ponies I rode at the stables is called Brian. Which I think is hilarious. All the others are “ie” ending names “holly, molly, polly,fuzzy, etc,,,” then there’s Brian. 🤣

A hamster named Ziggy Sawdust

A hamster called Damian and a bulldog called Mr Ernie. Mr Ernie only ever responded to MR Ernie and he could carry his own lead, I was both in love and deeply impressed.

A friend bought his young family a kitten. All three children and both parents had to write what they thought he should be called on a piece of paper, which they put in a box. The first name drawn out of the hat was the cat’s designated name.

He was called ‘Fury’. He lived up to his name.

it was only two years later that the youngest child confessed to his Dad that he wanted to call the cat ‘Furry’ , but he couldn’t spell.

There is a shitzu in our village named Kevin Keegan.

No, it was in the Cotswolds, but it's lovely to know that there is more than one Colin and Barry doggy pair!

That was Doorkins Magnificat. She was a stray who turned up at the cathedral door one winters night and they gave her a home. She had free run of the cathedral and attended many of the services. She was hugely loved by everyone there and people visited especially to see her. She died a couple of years ago and the cathedral now has another cathedral cat, a tuxedo called Hodge. He, like Doorkins was a homeless cat who had been cared for by a cat sanctuary.

Sizzle is good too for a daschund- from Charlie and Lola

My kitten was a rescue feral and he was savage... he's grey and the cats rescue had called him Stormy ... suited his personality and colour - he's adorable now he's 2 ... loves fighting with his 'brother' ... not related

I met someone whose (medic) parents had cats called Mogadon and Morphine

A cockerpoo called Otto. He was born on 20 February and the owner wanted a palindrome.

That's my nickname for my dog (she's of Siberian persuasion) 🤣

My rabbit when I was little was Reginald Perrin.

A friend has dogs Nigel and Brian.
Another has Mango, a vizsla.
