Today I met a dog called 'Batman'!
Apparently the kids named him Grin
What's the funniest dog name you have come across?!

Tallypet · 10/12/2014 17:50

Simon. It was/is a Labrador.

I have a cat called Ray Grin

CaulkheadUpNorth · 10/12/2014 17:56

Steve and Bob.

I like people names for dogs. Not dog names for people though.

I was seriously considering 'Batfink' for our SBT. When she gives you her belly her ears flap back and all I have going through my head is 'My wings are like a shield of steel'. I need a life don't I?!

I am getting a bit bored of the human names. Batman is great.

Tallypet · 10/12/2014 18:07

I love human names on pets - so cute Smile
Our cat ended up being called Ray because he's a stray and DH in all his creative wisdom thought Ray the Stray was magnificent.

I don't like it. I want to call him Sam. Or Barry.

My lab is called BatDog

I can't even blame it on kids cause I named him that

LoathsomeDrab · 10/12/2014 21:41

I know a standard poodle called Frank and a whippet called Tim Grin

MsAdorabelleDearheartVonLipwig · 10/12/2014 21:44

I like Dave for a dog. And Ralph.

DDog3 has a human name (not very common, a shortened version of a fairly well known name) but answers beautifully to "Pig"
It stemmed from the fact that she snores and snuffles like a small pig and just seems to have stuck. The sadness is that her name was actually the name I would have used for a DD if I had one. Once it became apparent we wouldn't have any more children I decided to use it anyway and now everybody ignores it- even people in the village call her Pig

Ah, I love the name Pig! I also met a dog called Reg this morning. We have just moved to the area so I wonder what others are going to pop up Grin

MrsFox - My 13 week old is called Pigi :)
The rescue lady named her, we wanted to change it but she answered brilliantly to it when we got her - so Pigi stayed.
It suits her, greedy little gannet that she is :)

I've known brothers called Benson and Hedges.
Dog.
Woof - woof had a cat brother called Mieow.

dementedma · 14/12/2014 11:02

Dad's boyfriends dog is called Nigel.he's only a puppy - a collie- so I'm hoping he will grow into it!

hoobypickypicky · 14/12/2014 11:09

The dogs owned by friends, acquaintances and relations include -

Mouse the Greyhound. Monkey the crossbreed. Ralph the pug and another who was a Golden Retriever. Lady Antonia Fraser the Afghan Hound (known as Antonia to her friends!). Fish the German Shepherd. Spud the Labrador. Spanky the Jack Russell. A fluffy, shaggy mixed breed called Albert. Reg the Staffie cross. Lucinda the Corgi.

I have some very odd friends and relations. Grin

DrElizabethPlimpton · 14/12/2014 11:10

My Labrador is often called by her full name - Lillian - when being particularly daft.

FlatCapAndAWhippet · 14/12/2014 19:16

We've had a "Matthew" and a "Spider".
Grin

cafesociety · 15/12/2014 14:42

HarrietSchulenberg · 15/12/2014 15:03

Our lurcher is called Stanley. He came from Rescue with it but it suits him so we kept it.
