Call your furbaby something different than their name?

canthardlywait426 · July 2009

Our dogs name is Isadora. Izzy for short. We call her doodle bug most of the time though. It got me thinking- how many of you call your furbaby something other than their actual name? When izzy hears "Isadora" she knows she's in trouble and won't listen!

Jade responds to Jade and Jader-Bears. Jade Marie is reserved for when she is in trouble. Haha.

sare_bear · July 2009

Her name is Blaze but I call her Dog. Or Stinky. She responds to just about anything now.

Gladys the dog is Captain Shaggles, Colonel Snoops, Puppers, Gladabell, Gladiola... the list goes on! DH LOVES nicknames.

Janet the cat is usually Whiskers or Mr. Whiskers. Yes, Mr., despite the fact she's a girl. DH insists Miss Whiskers doesn't sound as good!

I am the queen of giving nicknames to my two pugs, Rocky and Rambo. I call Rocky "bubu", "nookie," "monkey," and "Rocky-bear." Rambo is "rammy," "ram-dizzle," or "dizzy." I feel bad for my future children. I'll probably never call them by their given names! haha

We have 2 indoor cats, Rocket whom we call Bug because he is a good bug catcher, and Deena, whom we call Ne Ne or Princess Pants because she's such a little princess.

We also have an outdoor cat, Guinevere, whom we call Gwinny or Gwinny-bear.

stefuge · July 2009

Sydney I often call Sydney Belle or Syd. Also Baby Girl or Princess cause her personality is totally a little princess.

Trix gets Trixie a lot. I'll also call her Trixie Pix, which has shortened just to Pix. My DH hates this! He always tells me "Her name is Trix not Pix!"

Nemo I call Buddy or Little Man. Hes our only boy, so?

We are totally into nicknames - and they change a lot!

My little doxie's name is Sir Oscar Meyer Wiener (Our Last Name), Esquire. I know it's crazy, it's a long story. Of course we never actually call him all of that. He is usually just Oscar, Oscar D. Dog, Dog, and DH calls him A$$ Breath on occasion.

seells · July 2009

Our dogs name is Banana. We call her B and sometimes bubbhas. We also call her wewechu. (A nickname my dad gave her when she was a puppy because she's part Chihuahua and was so small-only 2lbs when we got her)

MrsCarroll.6-10-07 · July 2009

We call Bailey...stinky, smelly, pooper, puker, furball, old man...he really fits those all at various times.

SallyCampos22 · July 2009

Our little guy's "formal' name is JJ, but he also goes by: Baby J, Juicy Juice, Juicy, Va J J..... I think there's more (most, if not all, created by DH himself).

We also have a cat named TC, but she really only goes by Baby Girl. And she doesn't respond to either name.

Blasianlove · July 2009

M calls her something I don't even know how to spell. She actually responds to it and it's not even close to her name Daisy. I say M and her have a language of their own.

Atalanta0214 · July 2009

Here name is Sadi, also called Sadi Bug, Pupps McGruffs, and an assortment of other random names.

lyse2143 · July 2009

Mrs. Vick · July 2009

LOL! I love this post! Im pretty sure all 3 of our dogs think their names are about ten different names besides their name!

We have a dog named Baron- we call him Bar (like Bear) lil bear (bc of the toothpaste commercial) Li ( short for Lil bear ) l

We have a dog named Gucci and we have the most fun rhyming things with her name like hoochie guc (sounds like hooc in hoochie) and other ones I probably cant spell

Gypsy is our last dog- we call her gyppy, skoppy, gypper, lol anything that sounds stupid basically.

Were pretty creative with them- we love them. I think its fun making up names and stuff for them and seeing them react.

ValentineBB · July 2009

I am so glad I am not the only person who does this!

Dog #1: Jake - aka Jakers, Rakers, Jakerpants, Jakey and Buddy

Dog #2: Bailey - aka Beans, Biscuit, Biddles & Princess Buttercup.

(And, BTW, I am new here and have been lurking for awhile, had to post since I am not the only crazy pet person)

Mrs. BZ · July 2009

loloindiego · July 2009

McJen715 · July 2009

Our dog Tessa I call Pretty Girl 99% of the time, or Ticks/Tickle Bug. The last one stems from when my husband would call her Tess Tickle, and then laugh. Yeah, he acts like he is 12 sometimes.

Our other dog Duke I usually call Bubba. My H usually calls him Dewey. Other nicknames are: Dukers, Dukie, or Dukie Doo.

My cat Emma Louise is Emma Lou, or Fat Cat/Fattie.
