How To
How do you choose the right name for your pet?
Choosing a name for your pet is one of the most important decisions you'll make when adopting a new animal into your home. Names should reflect the personality and character of your pet.
It is important to consider how other people might refer to you - for instance, if they are going to be called by their name in conversation. And finally, you should think about how you yourself would like to be referred to. What do you prefer, for example, "dog" or pet?
Here are some tips for getting started.
-
Select a name to fit your dog's breed. Look up the names associated to the breed, if you have a good idea of what it is (e.g. Labradoodle). Ask someone with a good knowledge of dogs to suggest a name.
-
Take into account the meaning behind the name. Some breeds are named after people and places while others are simply nicknames. The name "Rover," for example, was given to a Labrador Retriever because he was always running around!
-
How would you like to be called? Would you rather call your dog "dog", or "pet"? Would you call your dog "Puppy" or "Buddy"?
-
Be sure to include the name of the owner. It makes sense to give your dog a name that includes your last name but doesn't limit yourself to only including your family members' names. Your dog may grow up to be part of your family, too!
-
Many pets may have more than one name. For example, a cat might go by several names depending on where she lives. While she may be called "Kitty Cat" at her home, she might go by "Molly" when visiting her friends. This is especially true for cats that live outside. They may choose to name themselves after the environment in which they live.
-
Be creative There are no set rules. You just need to choose something that is unique and memorable.
-
Check that your chosen name isn't used by any other person or group. That way, you won't accidentally steal someone else's identity!
-
Don't forget that choosing a name is not an exact science. Sometimes, it takes time for you to choose the right name. You can keep searching until you find your perfect match.
