How do you feel about giving pets human names? I find it a bit creepy tbh.


My brother Fido feels the same way.

It's fucking weird. "OH there goes Fred humping the vacuum again."
@MrBlueGuy Jimmy Fletcher used to look us dead in the eyes while peeing on the carpet. 😐
My pets always have human names. I'm not going to be at the dog park calling out, "Puddles, stop rolling in the mud! Get out of the mud, Puddles!"

Most dogs do, these days. Why not? Are we all supposed to call them Fido?? 🤣😂

It is silly yes, but better that than foisting absurd, bully-bait names that sometimes would be better for dogs, on children by fashion-victim parents.
I’m good with it.

I like them having people names as they often believe they are people

@nonsensiclesnail Agree! This is Oscar and his name really suits him!
Do you think we’re supposed to call a dog cookie?
KarenisKenziesmum · 51-55, F
@Gingerbreadspice Cookie is a general nickname for a guy with the surname Cook or Cooke, so it is a human name in that way.
@KarenisKenziesmum It’s also a biscuit or cake.
KarenisKenziesmum · 51-55, F
@Gingerbreadspice I know that, I was just saying how it can be a personal name.

I don't mind it one way or the other, TBH. I've had pets with both human and pet names. 🤣

I remember that when I was a kid, my parents were always saying that animals should never have human names. I don't remember the reason but I remember the stress they used to put on this opinion...as if it was a matter of law or something. 😆

It's absolutely the norm where I live.

Cesare is a pretty common name for cats, for instance.

Also I know of a dog named "Lapo" (named after "Lapo Elkann", that if you read as "Lapo el càn" would literally translate to "Lapo the dog") 🙈

@Elessar We had a cat that my mom named that.

I suck at naming things so I use film character names like Freddy or Jason
AllycatAD · 26-30, F
it's up to you, naming a dog shark and take it to the beach might not be a good idea.

Some can work. But not Kevin. Not bill. But some human names are ok.
A d his favorite position is doggy style
