Would you rather give your pet a human name or a pet name?

[LostTeen011]

Would you rather give your pet a pet name like "Ms, Scruffy, Dusty, Comet, or Pal?" Or a human name like "Dominic, Issac, Samantha, or Francine?" Or would either be type be fine.

[TheWhiteTornado]

I'd probably be more for a more human name, though it'd probably be something intense like Zeus or Kraken or something out-of-the-ordinary. I'm just weird like that though

[bitesize]

Dominic the cat. hahahahhaah.

I'd like either, although it would still have to fit just right. I wouldn't call my cat or dog say, Richard, but neither would I call either Fluffy or Mr Squibbles.

[Heartlines.]

Well... I had a snake that incorporated both: Jake no shoulders.

That was his name.

My grandma has a cat named Rats Ass

[Kitty.]

I chose pet name.

[snakewhisperer28]

i have a freakin zoo and honestly i do both.. i have cats named muffin and teddy bear, but i have a snake named chloe. Tho the majority of my human named pets are named after famous ppl. ie Lars my lizard is named after Lars Ulrich from Metallica lml

[Guile]

I always give my pets human names, or name them after companies/products, I know that's just sad ^^

I have had a variety of pets, my sister named my male dog a female name and it ended up gay, I still blame her for that one though

[MegaMadness]

I would do either. I have a dog called Prince Charming, and I had birds called Bobby, Mr Jay, Bluey and Aussie.

[Melody Pond]

My dog's called Poppy. To me that was always more of a pet name but recently it has become a really popular name for girls.

[Ancora Imparo]

I think it depends on the type of pet really. All the pets I've had though have had a mixture between pet names and human names.

[Nostalgia]

i would prefer to give my pets human names, but in the past my pets have had names like pickle and mischief but the one named mischief was named mischief befroe we got her, we had a hamster named fudge and we had two goldfish named cleo and goldie, we also have had 2 rabbits called tom and tiny. now we have a dog and a cat, the dogs called bruno and the cats called lucy, i prefer naming my pets human names. but we've had a mixture of pet names and human names, but i prefer to give my pets human names.

[Magic.]

I don't know ... either is cute.
My friend's dog is called Alfie and he "suits" it, if you can say dogs suit names ... but another friend's dogs are called River and Sky and they suit them too ...
Either way I guess, I'd have to wait until I actually got one.

[Skeleton]

Five of my six dogs have human names, the other one has a pet name. I prefer human names.

[Speechless]

Pet name

[Fictional]

My dog's called Archie and it really suits him... i think I'd lean towards 'old-fashioned' people names

[TakeTheLeap]

To give you an idea...
My cats are Bubba, Squirt, and BC.
My dogs are Cocoa, Raine, and Chloe.

Chloe's the oddball because my brother's ex-girlfriend named her. Bad idea. Although, she IS the oddball of the family anyway.

So, I voted for pet name. I'm the one who named Bubba and Squirt.
Their names DEFINITELY fit their personalities.

[Leela]

Well I have a cat with a human name but the rest of my pets have pet names

[Nicole!]

I've had both. My dog's name is Bella and when she had puppies we named them Boone, Annie, and Kevin. So I guess all my dogs have human names. Any other pet I've had had pet names with the exception of the hamsters I had.

[Palmolive]

I rather my pets have a proper pet name. Like snuggles, or whiskers. Not something like Louise or Katie

My cats are called Suki and tinkerbell xD

[ChaosControl]

I chose either, because I'm going to name my dog after a person, but it wouldn't suit a human name as a first name.

...Ramone

[Rainbow Dash]

I like both all my pets seem to have "human names" though. My dogs are called Charlie and Miley, my cat is called Oliver and my hamster (well, old hamster) was called Harry.

[Power Cosmic]

*shrugs* I'm not sure ^^;
I don't really think about it I guess, I just give them whatever name seems appropriate, I mean, I named my frog after a spice, which is neither really >.>.

[JuneBug]

we got a dog called joker dunoo where name came from lol but suits the dog lol he is crazy

[Awakening]

Either one. But it seems like now that I think about my dogs have human names and my cats have pet names.

[Reverie.]

I would name my pet according to what it looks or acts like. but then again, if i couldnt think of a name that suits that, a human name is fine so either.

[Discombobulated]

I have both, i have 2 dogs called buster and lucy, 2 cats called bobby and kim and 2 rabbits called biscuit and ginger :-)

[Nightmare]

I'd probably name my pets names from like anime or manga that I really liked but could never name my kids.
Like, Kururugi, or Euphemia, (Euphie for short), or L haha.
-Dan

[Anthropomorphic]

I'd probably lean more towards human, but I also think that every name should have a meaning.

My dog's name is "Zydeco". Not a very common name for any living thing. Zydeco is actually a kind of blues music.

[aerochick]

Well, I guess I prefer using human names, but my cat's name is Ginger (which I take as a pet name) and I think it suits her very well
Then again, she was named after Ginger Spice when I was, oh let's say 5 or 6, so I don't know if that would be pet or human...

[emma01]

Well I would say either, but I wouldn't use Mr. Something. It has to be a one-word name!

For example Pebbles, and Snowy are not really human names, I like those ones (my friend called her cat zazzles for eg) LOL but then I also don't see anything wrong with the name Poppy, Oscar, Lucy, Milly, Tabitha etc!

[Berries and Cream]

either one would be totally cool (:

[Tara.]

I don't care either way. Just depends on what kind of personality they have.

[sassygurlone]

I have to see the animal first then a name usually comes to mind.

[kitkat_kate]

I really don't care, and I've done both. I had a cat named Heidi, a dog named Scotty, another dog named Theodore J. Teddy Bear (though, Teddy for short), and several fish: Dexter, Ikatik, Sashimi, and Princess. It all just depends.

[escape_thereal_world]

Most of my animals have always had human names. Almost.

I had dwarf hamsters: Angel, Lucky, Pepper, Bashful, Sweetie, Shiro, I don't remember other names

I have ferrets: Bonkers, Riley, Loki (soon), Lincoln, Booth

And a degu: Jack

Had cats: Kiki, Zoey, Little Bit, Eclipse

I suppose a bit of both, but generally human-like names

[alixthetree]

I'm more for both. Currently I have pets named

Dogs: Asia, Macy and Sophie
Cats: Thomas and Marble
and a hamster named Maggie

[Marshmellow]

It depends on the pet. Usually, I prefer pet names, but one of my dog's names is Micah, and I named him. Generally, if it is a 'human' name, I pets to be named ones that aren't too common. (Like, for example, I wouldn't ever name my dog "Jacob" or "Emily.")

Ultimately, it depends what seems fitting for the dog. My dog that I grew up with was named Trixie; my mom named her that because when she was a puppy, she would dance.

But our cats' names are Snowy, Buttons, and Tinkerbell. :P And our other dog's name is Buddy...or Budrick Duke Biggles, as I like to say.

[Anatidaephobia]

It doesn't really bother me. I think it depends more on the animal and there personality

[Toast]

None of my pets have human names actually, but I am not opposed to SOME human names. I have Java(dog) and Sapphire(horse) at the moment but if either of them were a boy then her name would have been Gabriel. However, I have come across horses named : Jim, Bob, Pete and others I can't think of at the moment. Those are just terrible names for any animal. Also, I work at a dog kennel and there is a huge excess of dogs named Buddy, as well as Molly although I think Molly is a cute name for a dog. Buddy for a dog is just uncreative(Sorry Cola! Budrick Duke Biggles is an awesome name though ).

[JustDanielle]

I've never gave any of my pets human names. My Goldfish was called Lio. My dog was called Fluffy. My Kitten was called Mittens!
