Percy, and when he's misbehaving call him Percival

This! I had a dwarf rabbit that was Percy but Percival when he was being bad. 😂

I see where someone is coming from upthread about The Wombles. I'd choose Tobermory out of their names, as it sounds like a fine name to bellow across the park, or to be called out when he goes to see the vet!

I have a soft spot for pet names that get, "That's not a dog name!". I always champion John as a good, solid name for a dog. Unfortunately, all of mine have been girls so far! Rodney, or Roy, might also suit him.

He looks like a Hugo to me. He's gorgeous.

He’s beautiful! I like Ozzy I think.

Percy all the way! Percival when he's naughty.

I’m loving Rod/Rodney/Rod Stewart as well, Thank you for the puppy tax.

Wowwhataworld · 19/07/2026 01:40

He does look like an Ozzy. Someone else said Rod Stewart so could use Roddy.

Another vote for Percy from me

Sorry this is the pic

I think the name Jeremy would suit this sweet boy!

Beansandbats · 19/07/2026 02:08

He looks like a Humphrey to me!

twinnyone · 19/07/2026 02:16

Because of his colour. Truffle, Treacle, Fudge or Biscuit.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 19/07/2026 09:52

He looks like a lamb...so "Jackson" (Slow Horses) main character Jackson Lamb

I would go for Gary (Oldman) but I think it's a frowned upon name so "Barry"
(not Manilow , but Taylor from "Sorted Food" who is my favourite out of the group )

comofn · 19/07/2026 10:32

Thank you all for your amazing name suggestions. The kids are adamant they want to call him Percy. So think he will be Percy.
