The 70+ most hilarious pet names and how they got them

1) Azerbaijian?

For those who do not know, Azerbaijian is a country. So it makes sense to name your dog after a country instead of a random word. More sense than naming him LouLou.

2) She Knows What’s Up

This neighbor is only the most amazing neighbor ever. She doesn’t use the pets’ given names but instead gives them much better names. We can see The Doctor doing this.

3) This is Actually a Thing

For some reason, people like to give their female cats girl names then eventually start calling them really normal man names. It’s a whole thing and no one knows why.

4) Also Scott

His name is the whole chorus from I’m the Scatman only with Scrapman instead. Does he also go by Ski-bi dibby dib yo da dub dub yo da dub dub?

5) Stay Away From Ambers

If you haven’t called your pet a food, then are you really even a pet owner. You can go with something like Pumpkin or Love Muffin of you’re a beginner.

6) That’s a Lot of Years

Only the best of us are lucky enough to keep a cat for 17 years. This cat has lived over twice as long as he would likely have in the wild. No wonder these felines are abusing their powers.

7) Another Royal Family

These pets are given names fit for kings. But that is a little obvious considering one of them is King Anton, who is, of course, their leader. Second in command is Henrik, and so on.

8) Frankie is the Only Option

If you have a Dachshund and it’s not named Frankie, then do you even have a Dachshund? That’s what I thought. Although anything to do with sausage is also acceptable.

9) Tibbers!

These names are so high IQ that the general population will never be able to full appreciate them. This dog will be given the best food and win every show he enters into.

10) Say My Name, Say My Name

Jeanie Beanie Bonky Beanie is about as natural as you can get. Who needs a name like Jean when you can be as colorful as that? That was one quality upgrade.

11) From Hero to Roast

Many animals follow this path, but a cat isn’t usually one of them. It doesn’t take long to realize your cat will never be the hero you thought they were going to be.

12) Read That Twice

Did you catch all that? If not, you’re not alone. Tiger-Biger-Billy-Bigey-Boo is one that you will have to memorize before moving on from the simple Tiger.

13) Such a Disgrace

Imagine, just imagine changing Obi Wan Kenobi’s name to Coco. That is just not cool. Sure, Coco the Disney movie is alright, but Obi Wan? Who could do such a thing?

14) Things Have Changed

Their first dog seemed like an old monster. This new one? He seems a little conceded and a lot spoiled. When you start rhyming with your dog name, you know that you are wrapped around that little paw.

15) Never Surrender

Buzzkins is totally acceptable but you can’t claim The Floof. There are millions of cats and dogs that get to be called The Floof no matter what their original name may be.

16) Yep, Short

Imagine learning as an adult that your cat’s real name wasn’t what you thought it was. Would you change a thing? Probably not, but it would feel quite strange.

17) Works For Her

Let’s face it, dogs don’t care what you call them, as long as you do call them. So if you want to take a cute name like Nutmeg and ruin it for your family, then go for it. Nutty won’t mind.

18) A Lot to Take In

This is a lot of reading and a lot of trying to understand exactly who is who. It seems there are three cats with about thirteen names it total? Spooky.

19) Bootsbootsbaby

Try saying her name five times fast. Or just once, because it’s really catchy. Although Lucy is one of the best dog names you can come up with, we can accept their replacements.

20) Okay Then, Pops

Can you even pick a favorite out of all of these adorable names? They fit old dogs, baby dogs, small dogs, and big dogs. Even fluffsters and Chinese Crested!

21) They Love Their Dogs

You cannot even speak these names unless you love your dogs. Try calling your dog one of them to find out how much you really care about them. Start with Peggy Weggy Woo Woos.

22) Stanley, How Could You?

We can all relate to this. Your dog strung out the trash again, is whining because the cat is pestering him, or had a little accident inside. That’s his name, don’t wear it out.

23) That’s Enough

This is adorable. Tigger loves affection but this cat, not so much. Cats are known for controlling how much humans touch them and this cat is the perfect example.

24) Just Put “Cat”

This cat isn’t just called cat, but is officially name cat. The poor kid wanted to call her Disco but sadly, no one else did. Maybe when he gets older he can get his own Disco cat.

25) Mind Blown

Carpet isn’t an awful name for a cat. But using her name to name her offspring is just about the smartest thing one could do. Mat could be short for Matthew and Rug is one of those cool, “rugged” dudes in school.

26) Perfect Explanation

This is the absolute best explanation and reasoning behind a name that we’ve ever seen. As long as it’s a stroke of the hand and not a “stroke” or a seizure. It could happen.

27) Don’t Mince Words

You can tell that this dog is a good dog. She’s sweet, funny, and has a big personality. Actually, can we meet Mince because we already love her. Wait…he said “was” didn’t he?

28) Not Too Shabby

In English, this doesn’t sound too insulting, but of course, in this girl’s language, it is. Although, Fish isn’t at all. You never know, do you, Goat? Yeah, not the Greatest of All Time.

29) Little Man!

Moo is a good name for a cat but so is every other name that this H mentioned. DogBearCat is a great one for those as confuse as Babe. Baa Ram Ewe!

30) Classic Evolution

This is what an evolution

31) Deserves the World

This dog looks so extra sweet that he deserves the best. Including a name like Piglington Doglington. He is royalty for sure and needs to feel like it.

32) I See What You Did There

Yeah, not really. Wilson and Pickle don’t really have any relation right? Unless you are referring to Wilson Pickett and the Land of 1000 Dances. And about Bumface? Well, it relates to any name.

33) Smart Move

This was a grand move, Mrs. Tovey. After all, having to say that ten word name would get tiring and he’d never get scolded. This is what America believes everyone with an accent is named.

34) Try Saying It Without a Lisp

Anyone who can appreciate Lovecraft is a friend of cats everywhere. There is a realm that people like this live on and commoners like us will never reach it.

35) How Cultured

This cultured family names their kittens after Russian figures, which is pretty dope. But when someone else took over the care of one…well, she went from the subject of one of the greatest books of all time to something that sounds like a bodily function.

36) Popsicle FTW

This person should write a book about cat names and become a best selling author. I don’t even have a cat and I’d buy a book like that. Who wouldn’t?

37) Try It Out

Just try saying Jarvalarv and Harvay with a Mexican accent and you’ll understand why they use the names. It’s so catchy that you’ll be saying it over and over again.

38) The Noover Vacuum

Blade is a good name for a vampire, vampire hunter, and a black lab, apparently. Although Puppa Nui is about as perfect as you can get. Sure does have a ring to it.

39) I’d Like a Pupperoni To Go

This scruffy little girl seems quite likable. Imagine calling him Pupper John or Magnolia. Both fit so equally that it’s amazing they are so different.

40) Now This is Evolution

This is what pet name evolution is all about. You start out with a decent name. Guts makes her sound determined and strong. But then Google? Well, maybe she’s a know-it-all.

41) So She’s Irish?

Looks like this toddler was the only one who knew this cat’s real name. She didn’t want to be called grey because it made her feel old. And Graham made her sound like a cracker. Eamonn is refined.

42) Gotta Love Him

It seems that this Dog-o-bog enjoys the not so fine things in life. And when he does, he gets a name to go along with it. He seems like a real character.

43) Coopins Lupins Poopins

Another Obi who no longer goes by Obi Wan Kenobi. Instead, this one goes by Obi McObertons. Which is a long way from Mr. Kenobi. At least Coops didn’t travel far.

44) Beans are Good for the Heart

Beans has to be one of the most refined dog names that you can come up with. And if you have another? Broccoli will work as Beans and Broccoli sound great together.

45) The Little Snoot

No one expected Martha to go downhill this fast. Or should we say uphill? Surely this gal would much rather be called Fandango than Martha.

46) Was It Even a Beagle?

If this dog wasn’t a beagle and it was still called Beagle, then this family won the name lottery. However, naming your dog Happy Birthday would make Christmas cards a lot of fun.

47) Not An Evolution

This is more like the evolution of pets through time not a single pet. Giving pets middle names is the perfect way to make them feel like family. My favorite is Pepsi Peter.

48) Eric Eggbummers

There is nothing wrong with the name Eggbum or Eric, but if you want the perfect name, you have to put them together. Just don’t forget to follow it with “the Third.”

49) Me-Me-Meow

Me-Me-Meow makes Jasper sound like he needs to practice his do-re-mis just like on Aristocats. In fact, perhaps this is a descendent of Duchess?

50) A Born Stray

This adorable dog reminds us of Tramp from Lady and the Tramp. She does look like a Sunflower though, “How did you get so cute?” fits her much better.

51) Does He Have Chest Hair?

This is everyone. What you call your dog probably depends on how they are acting and how you feel. Had a long day? Then Honey Bun probably won’t cut it.

52) Her Daughter’s Dog?

We’re going to assume she meant her daughter’s dog here. If so, she also means that her daughter will regret that name in a few years and will want to call her dog Mabli again.

53) Up for Manchester

Is Sir Topham Fatt QC is a better tname than Eric Catona, footballer for Eric Catona? This might just be the hardest decision yet because both names rock.

54) So What Do You Call Him?

If I were her, I’d call him Cap’n or Barney. There are tons of ways to get around this and she should hop on the name evolution bandwagon to save herself from embarrassment.

55) Goddess of Love

Their dog is the Goddess of Love, also known as Poochos Poochos Ghali, of course. The cat? Well, that’s just old Murph. Hmmm…what a strange combination.

56) Foxface Alpha Wins

Another champ with dog names. Again, if Daniel doesn’t write a book on dog names then what is this world coming to? He obviously has a gift that should be harvested.

57) We Don’t Know Their Origins

We don’t know what these cats were named at birth but I guess that doesn’t matter in this case. These names are way better than any other name they could have been given.

58) Not Even the Sandwich

He is so “intelligent” that they tried out Rubik’s Cube and it just wouldn’t stick. So they ended with Reubunzel and called for him to let down his dog hair. Of course, he never listens.

59) Yes, Harry Potter!

There are more Harry Potter fans in the country than people who have dogs. So, I guess that means a lot of people will get this reference. And somehow feel sorry for this old canine.

60) Pizza Time!

Everyone loves pizza and everyone loves Pete-za! It’s the perfect nickname for a dog named Pete or Petey. You can’t go wrong with tacos or alfredo either.

61) Suits Him

He looks like both Sharknado and Truffle. It actually looks like he’s trying to say Truffle but he has a lisp that just won’t allow it. Let’s go with Sharknado then.

62) Poor Ted

We would hate to hear what happened to poor Ted. Now we can’t say, “How’s it going, Bill and Ted?” Instead, we get to say, “How is it going, Mr. Billanious Blatticus?”

63) She is the One Named Idiot Cat

This anime loving family started out with Luna and Loki, adorable names for cats. But eventually, their true colors shined through and they became Cute Kitty and Idiot Cat.

64) Shep is Common

Shep is a more comon cat name than you would think. But Sheepstack Lightning? We can guarantee you, she is the only one with that dear name. Please keep it sacred.

65) He is Salty

We can imagine a dog named Charlie being a little salty but a dog named Salts has no choice in the matter. That’s Captain Salts to you, by the way!

66) Every Kitten Ever

Try naming your cat something like Eris and not calling her Princess Poofypants. She is a fluffster and always will be one, no name can change that.

67) Lord Boobington III, That Is

He comes from a long line of Lords and Boobingtons. His daughter will marry a Duchess and their daughter will marry a Prince. Soon, his bloodline will take over the world.

68) That’s a Lot of Personality

It looks like Heidi has a lot of personalities. One of them is friendly, one cranky, one excited, one silly, and all pefect. This describes every dog ever.

69) It’s a Ritual

This is a strange name for a cat and the more you think about it, the less sense it makes. I think I would stick with Cat most of the time too, which is the most popular name for a cat.

70) Sounds About Right

This is what we like to see. Dogs with super normal names being called every crazy thing in the book. Dog owners know what that’s like. This is the inevitable.

71) That’s a Lot of Names

All these random names and those dogs probably respond to any word called out. Next thing you know, they’ll think their names are Mom and Dad.

72) She Likes It, We Like It

This retriever enjoys having her name spelled out, but she loves it when her family accompanies it with a little cheer. Let’s hear it for the girl!

73) She’s About to Drop a Fat Beat

This dog sounds a lot like a DJ. Like, who wouldn’t listen to DJ LTJ Schnookem. She would definitely yell her name three times during each song.
