- Pet naming tips
- Short & Sweet - A shorter name is easier for you to say, otherwise you will end up calling your dog/cat, etc by its nickname anyway. i.e. Maximillion (Max)
- Meaningful - Try to choose a name that means something to you. In my opinion it gives you a stronger bond to your pet.
- Ironic - Sometimes people choose pet names that are opposite their pet. For instance, calling your St. Bernard, "Tiny" or your Chihuahua, "Grande".
- Appearance - Another option is naming your pet off of appearance. If they have spots, you can name your pet "Spot". If they have stripes, you can name them "Tiger", "Zebra", "Stripe", etc.
We hope we helped you on your pet naming journey!
