ohhh, isn't it fun picking out a pet's name?
I named our dog "shelby" because it's an english name and I always thought it had a beautiful and playful lilt to it.
We adopted a cat and named him "felix" because it meant "happiness" he was our first pet right after we got married and I was so happy we had gotten him, and it fits him perfectly, he's a black and white cat with a lot of spunk.
We had a stray come to our door, a tiny tiny little cat who was pregnant, we found homes for all her kittens once she had them and then kept her for ourselves, she is such a sweet kitty, to match her gentle personality and to match felix's name, we named her Fiona.
I named my horse when I was only 12. his full show name is CBA Knight Train. I wanted to call him Gus, but my parents insisted I name his some nickname off his full name... hence I called him Trinny.
Now that i'm an adult, it's a funny thing to here me call him that to people, but it shows how much he and I have grown together.
I'm thinking about getting a second horse and naming him Aspen or something a little more dignified than "trinny"
hehe
and gosh, i'm loving this thread! reading through all these responses is so neat!
