Do You Nickname Your Dogs?

Layla also has a few nicknames:
Layla playla
Princess Layla
Laylosh (turkish diminutive form)
Layla jani ( A Turkish thing again my husband)
Dog child
Missy

Rocky the chi:
Rocky Jack
Rockles
Rocklit
Rocky the boss
Rocks

Angel the Italian Greyhound:
Rangel (we kinda made a spoonerism out of Rocky and and Angel hence Rangel, said like ranger with an L)
Black dog
Mr Angel
Very black dog
Angel Jack
Angel Pangel

When I am angry at them they all get called one of the following: Idiot, retard, brainless, moron. I often follow that up with i am going to sell you on gumtree (kinda like craigslist).

Thats about it ;)

He has a few. His name is Dobby but sometimes I call him "Derbie". My mom nicknamed him "mutt". Another is "sir stupid" All out of love of course!
 
Daisy's nickname is Daisy Duke.

Since shes a red doberman Daisy Duke became "The big brown Duke". Which is kind of funny because not only is Big Brown Duke a play on words "Duke" has multiple meanings. ;-)
 
Oh man, we have a ton of nicknames for the dogs. Let's see how many I can think of...

Drake
Draker Dude
Drakester
Mud dauber
and on some occasions PITA, we all know what that stands for.
Greta
Goober Girl
Goobie
Sweetie
Love Bug, just cause she is my sweet little love bug.




Just remembered this thread and wanted to make sure Goobie's nicknames were documented before I forget. And add a couple. Most of the time she was called Goobie Doobie and would start a little dance when you said it.....so cute. She also got called Hoover because she loved to go in the kitchen and sucks up any crumbs I may have dropped. Such a silly girl....
 
Booger-ee-boo..... that's most common.
Adders...occasionally
If he could talk he'd likely say it's Addyleaveit ;)

I recall starting a thread before asking "Can a Dog Successfully Have Two Names?"

I've got two key names for Oji. The funny thing is, you all on here get to know his "secret" name. I only utter the name when I have something good for him. That's his "real" name.

Everyone else, including my wife and daughter use his other name – a name chosen by my little daughter.

Now, people I meet on the street or elsewhere who ask his name: They get lies.

By the way, isn't it silly that people ask your dog's name? I mean, strangers who you've just met and are chatting with. Such a common question, but almost meaningless. No way on earth I am going to speak Oji's name to a stranger just so he can learn to ignore it.
 
I thought I was the only one who had multiple nicknames for my sweet Athena!

Teenie
Theenie
TT
Sister
Sissy

And there is no rhyme or reason why or when I use them! Just terms of affection I guess <3
