Hi everyone just wanted to ask what the most popular pet name for your breed is ... In Cavalier king Charles a lot of boys get called Charlie and bitches Bonnie as in Bonnie prince charles ..do you find in your breed there is a most common pet name ?

Male Basset Hounds are called Fred after the cartoon in the Mail paper, and Bessie basset seems to be for female bassets.
I have named my basset Dexter.

oh good point, if I had a basset, I would HAVE to call him Fred :-D

what not Bertie ......:)

Oh yes, I'd have to have two then! :-D

I dont have a breed as such but the most popular pet names here are Jack, Bailey, Marley, Buddy and Jake for males and Skye, Holly and Abby for females.

i'm getting my king charles in 4 weeks, and i will be calling him Georgie, i dont think thats that common (or is it) ithink its a vey sweet little name it was my son that come up with it (he is 6) and now he is vey proud of him self, and every time i talk about Georgie he reminds me that he thought of that name

Scotties and Westies are always called Jock! :-D  Or Hamish, or Mac, or Donald, or Angus!!

We thought up as many Scottish names as we could for our Scottie, then ended up getting a bitch and couldn't think of a single Scottish female name, other than Nessie!!!  I threatened to call her Noo Noo - for och aye the Noo, but unfortunately it stuck and we referred to her as that for the rest of the evening (this was two days before we went to visit) and I said we'd better pick a real name quick before we get used to this or she will be Noo Noo for the rest of her life, and so she became Millie, but Millie Noo Noo for short ;-).  We do still call her Noo Noo a lot though.  Anyway, another Scottie at puppy school is called Bonnie, which is a good idea, Bonnie Scotland and all that.  But I think everybody just gets boys all the time so they can call them Jock.  :-D

I wonder how many Rough Collies there are in this world by the name of Lassie....

LOL good point !!!!!!!!!!!

Not  mine and i have had them for over twenty years  :-D

Jean :-D

I thought all female Westies were called Skye!  :D

One of my nans neighbours have a scottie called   Scott.  I think they put alot of thought into that one.
Im in the process of looking for a cat,  Ille probably call it Dave or Dereck, my daughter wants to call it Norman.  Joe will be pleased.

Oh yes, I forgot that!  I belong to a Spanish Scottish Terrier site on MSN and the owner's Scottie is called...Scottie!  But he's excused, he's Spanish, to him that's an exotic name :-D

If I ever have a cat, I shall be calling it 'Cat'.  As in Holly Golightly's name for her cat in Breakfast at Tiffany's.  I think its the purrrrr-fect name ;-)

it might get a complex if you call it norman as in norman no friends LOL My mum once had a cat called Tigger i think she spent ages choosing a name LOL

Hi Emma,
I named one of my Boxer pups Norman :D

My cats are called Saffron (or Saffy - she's a dark tortie) and Clyde (black and white)they are semi-long haired.
I also have at my Nan's Bandit (he's a semi-long grey and white) and Tiffany (or Tiffy) which is my Nan's cat.

We've also owned, Lucky, Beauty, Smokey, and my mum had a cat called Pudding and she had
kittens and they kept one called Cornflake....no accounting for taste :D

When I had a cat I called her POOD, cause she was a poodie cat!!!!! How sad, but I was young.  I also called my rabbit Starsky, I'm sure you can work out why. :D

Jax

Boxers = Bruno, Tyson, Cassius, George, Frank, Ali....
Basically any 'Boxer' that is well-known in the Boxing ring.

Oh yes, I'm going to have to have a boxer called Bruno to go with Fred and Bertie, the Bassetts :-D

Border Terriers.  Usually called "OY" "STOPIT" or "GETDOWN"  :D:
Dawn.

My Westie is called Deefer as in D for dog!! My Mums first westie was called Macduff.

We called our first westie  Heather Now how was that for being original

Jean

I think Winston is about the most popular name for a Bulldog male and layla/lola for a female :)

In ACS's the boys are called Aussie or Digger and the girls Indi or Sydney

The wierdest name Ive heard for a dog is my ex's mums dog Meem. I have know idea why and never asked,  but certainly wierd.

One of my daughter's friends called their dog 'Askit' , as in
'what's your dog called?'
'Ask it' :D

:D :D :D I think 'sit' is a good name for a dog, 'come here, Sit' 'stay Sit' 'down, Sit' :D (old i know but i think its good :) )

As Melody said in her post, the northern breeds have very inuit names,  Nanuk (Samoyed) was named after the word polar bear in Inuit (I thought she looked like one as a pup!).  Tundra's name is another popular name for a Malamute.

We met a family in Pets at Home who told us their Scottie is called Dundee.  I understand their line of thinking but can't help but feel they must sound very odd calling him over the park...

Not as bad as my sister when she bought her Springer, she wanted to call him Rambo....the film was very popular at the time but I said "No way am I shouting that in the park"!!!!!!!!

Popular names for Munsters?...Max seems to be a favourite and a few Hermans.  Millies & Molly/Mollies ocassionally.

Some friends of ours have a cat called 'Seefer' as in 'C' fer cat!!

I quite fancy a 'Deefer' as in D fer dog!

We used to have a cat (1980's) called Rambo but shortened to 'Bo.

I've met a few sheps - border collies of course.

I have been told many times that I look like a King Charles cos i've got big eyes and curly hair (like ears) so I think Charlie is a very appropriate name for them!

i went for normal  dog names

weve got   FIDO  - terrier x whippet
  BEN - collie x sheepdog 
SASCHA  - collie
AND PEPSI - great dane

were not very adventurous with names

pepsi  was named after the big one in blackpool  because we bought him from their  and  hes the biggest dog weve got!!!

Bradley used to come to 'Oh dear god what have you done this time'. Or 'what on earth'.  He used to be there in a flash and sat down with his chest puffed out looking very very proud of my duvet and pillows that he had eaten and spread all around the bathroom. Ah bless! Miss him.

my son is called Bradley and down ..sit and noooo are great nick names for him :) and he is 11 but still dribbles when sent to bed early :(
