Name regrets

All this talk about naming Jackson's pets got me think'n about my dog's name.  Her records show her name was Ozzy, then Dimah, then when we adopted her I named her Nina so that it kind of rhymed with Dimah so it would be easy for her to learn.

BUT NOW I realize I should have named her Pita.  Pita the Pitt Bull.  Pita Pitt. See what I did there?! I suppose it's too late to change her name again? 

Anyone else name their pet one thing then thought of a better, more suitable name?

  • One of DH's rabbit beagles is named Double Barrel. It's his AKC name he came with so we didn't pick it but it's really annoying when I'm trying to yell at him to stop barking and I'm trying to yell a four syllable name...

  • My dog is named Xena.  Fits her perfectly.  So when we decided to get another dog I wanted to stick with the show references...and name him Ares.  DH said no and we finally decided on Lestat.  Well...hes should have been Joxer from the Xena series instead.
  • We had a yellow lab named Buddy whose name got changed to Kelso over the years as his antics reminded us of the character from the tv show.
  • I knew two labs named Frank and Beans. And another pair Ramm and Noodle ;)

     

  • I do sometimes regret naming my
    Chihuahua after Dexter. He is a demon biter so it shouldn't surprise me! But it's so fitting.

  • My dogs name is Samuel Hughston Jackson III he goes by Hughston or Hoppy. It fits him :)
  • No, but I often call other people's pets names based on what I think they look like. And then I have a hard time using their real name because the name I gave it fits so well.

  • We named our puggle Max (so original, I know) but we should have named him kibbles or wrinkles. We have 400 nicknames for him though (Maxie, Maxie Moo, Muglet, Snuglet, Chicken McSnuglet, Maximus Weinerus etc.) so he answers to a lot of things, lol!
  • My cats have so many nick names sometimes I forget what their real name is! My.black cats name is lucas but we call him luke, lukey, lucifer, then when he's in trouble Lucas Grabeel like the actor. IDK why? The cat we found painted on to out door doesn't really have an official name so we just call her kika and gata. My kitty that died last November was originally named Meek which turned into rico, tiko, taco, chacho, chacho mustafa. We're fucking weird lol

  • We have two schnauzer mixes. Their names are Doug (the big one) and Curly (the little one). When we were at puppy manners class, the woman couldn't remember which dog was which, but knew one of them had a 'man's name'.

    So she started calling Curly, Jim.

    We totally should have named them Doug and Jim. What a pair.

    We call them Doug-Doug and Curl-Bot. :)

  • @audrey1787 I want to name my next pet Kevin, just because it's funny like Craig. Who gives an animal a name like that? Us :x
  • Oh some of these names remind me of a dog at a training class named "The Dude."  He was sooo chill and had long hair.  I want to get a big chill dog and name him that....
