A Collection of Unique Names for Your Pet

Just as our parents gave us our special names, it is the same case with our pets. Names give power to the person or animal; it can be its success or downfall in life. We always give the best, prettiest or most popular names to a baby, why not to our pets also? We ourselves are sometimes not contented with our names so what makes us think that our pets are satisfied at being called Brownie, Blackie or Whitey?

Other ideas on how owners can give their pets a suitable name:

• For Gamblers — Ace, Gambit, BlackJack, Roullet, Bingo.
• For Drinkers — Mai Tai is a convenient name for a cat, and so are Shirley Temple, Margarita or Daquiri. While dogs can be called Migsy, Quatro, Napoleon or Fundador.
• The Anime Buff — Beyblade, Samurai X, Doremon, Dragon, Bubblegum, Questor.
• The Computer Nerd — Mouse, Techno, Mac, Acer, Rom, Apple(s).
• The Cartoon Lover — Scooby, Snoopy, Garfield, Marmaduke, Sylvester, Tweety.

When you still can’t think of a name for that pet, perhaps the easiest is to name it after its appearance and behavior. Does that kitten look like a Puffball, a Fur-Bomb or a Mop hair? Is the puppy Frisky? Lazy? Happy? You’ll find something far better than those mentioned.
