How to choose the right nickname

Breeders and ordinary owners have different methods for selecting nicknames. In the first case, all the canons and rules by which a particular nursery names its puppies must be observed:

The dog's nickname will begin with the letter that appears under the litter number in the alphabet (each kennel has its own order, the year of birth or month may be involved, one way or another, all puppies from a particular mother are named with the same letter);
There must be a name prefix that refers to the place of origin of the parents, the puppy’s homeland, the name of the kennel (it can be located either before or after the main nickname, for example, Vanessa iz Zolotologo Luch or Sheriff aga Alpha);
Animals registered in the club are not given prefixes, only nicknames in alphabetical order, they are registered in the stud books;
The full nickname should not exceed 40 characters, only 15 of them can be allocated to the prefix;
According to the rules, a name can only be used again after 30 years.

The owner who bought a puppy is faced with long, inconvenient names and, most often, shortens them. So the dog will turn from Patricia into Patty.

Under normal circumstances, of course, pets are not called pretentious phrases consisting of prefixes, endings, names of a club or kennel. But there are several recommendations that will help you choose a loud, successful nickname.

Scientists have long found out that a dog understands only the first 4 letters, therefore the nickname should be as short as possible with the emphasis on the first syllables. The best option would be two-syllable names.

Another rule is the minimal use of “growling” and “barking” sounds. This can provoke aggression or misunderstanding of the pet. In addition, you cannot use words that are consonant with basic commands (“Fu”, “Come to me”, “Nearby”, etc.), similar to the names of household members.

It will be better if the nickname reflects the character, appearance and pedigree of the puppy. Although if this recommendation is not followed, really funny nicknames can result. For example, if the mongrel is named Duchess.

Popular old Russian names

Among Russian dog breeders, it is not customary to call animals the same as people. However, it is quite possible to use native Russian names that have already fallen out of use as nicknames. Some of them have gained real popularity among animal lovers, but are still considered quite rare and original-sounding.

Beautiful nicknames

Only the owner can judge the beauty of a nickname. Tastes could not be discussed. Consonance may seem strange and awkward to some, but another person will consider it the best option for their pet. To choose a really good-sounding nickname, you need to rely on associations with the puppy's temperament or appearance.

The names of flowers or rare plants are ideal for a girl: Agave, Quince, Azalea, Acacia, Begonia, Vanilla, Geranium, Carnation, Deutzia, Disa, Spruce, Christmas tree, Jasmine, Willow, Caria, Cinnamon, Lavender, Magnolia, Mistletoe, Radish, Plum, Beans, Violet, Persimmon, Needles.

Of course, what nickname will sound better than the name of the goddess of the ancient world: Athena, Asia, Aphrodite, Artemis, Hera, Gorgon, Hecate, Dryad, Demeter, Iris, Lethe, Moira, Nymph, Pandora, Persephone, Siren, Fiona, Ephra, Juno.

Russian nicknames for girls dogs

The Russian language is rich not only in common nouns; you can choose or invent an affectionate word that characterizes your pet and is familiar to the ear. Most often, Russian-language names are chosen for domestic, northern, and Caucasian breeds. It is important to take into account the color of the pet, the length of its fur, physical abilities, size, and character.

Now it is fashionable to turn to Old Slavonic vocabulary, choose outdated names, names of mythological creatures or archaisms: Mlada (young), Golub (modest), Bozhana (gifted), Mara (strict), Yasna (clear), Dara (gifted), Diva (mythological evil spirit), Mavka (mermaid), Yuda (mythological creature), Dogoda (god of the wind).
For large dogs accustomed to work and harsh conditions, strong northern names are chosen: Vyuga, Yurta, Taiga, Ada, Vesta, Aurora, Lada, Snowstorm, Speed, Strela, Askania, Yunga, Alaska, Naida.
For small and medium-sized breeds, you can choose a nickname that characterizes their color or disposition: Weasel, Smeshinka, Blob, Umka, Snowball, Squirrel, Drop, Bulka, Buka, Busya, Zlyuka, Bug, Zhulya, Chunya, Kapa, Paw, Doll, Beauty .
Some nicknames come from Russian names: Aska, Pashka, Dusya, Rusya, Fima, Julia, Eva, Laura, Nora, Lyusya, Ksenya, Senya.

Should you give your puppy an unusual name?

We decided to give you an unusual nickname, something cool and funny, and you have every right. But remember that a dog is given a name for life. It will be quite difficult to retrain.

The names of favorite characters and fictitious ones can eventually become boring and boring to the owner. Perhaps a poorly thought out choice of name will put the owner in an awkward position on a walk, and others will be embarrassed to hear it.

Try to choose a name that is understandable to the dog and can be easily pronounced by the owner, since during training and on walks you will have to repeat it many times. Remember, if you get a dog for hunting or exhibitions, you should take the choice of a nickname as seriously as possible. We hope we helped you decide on a nickname for your four-legged friend.

Foreign with meaning

The best name for a dog is the one whose origin comes from the homeland of the breed. So, for example, a British nickname would be an ideal option for a Yorkshire Terrier, and a French one for a French Bulldog.

Now, along with the flow of Eastern culture, Japanese and Korean traditions are pouring into the Internet, in particular into social networks. This is also reflected in the animals' nicknames. Anime fans name their pets after their favorite characters or even just Japanese names.

German nicknames

The best German nicknames are those that characterize a specific dog:

Nelya (fast);
Muti (brave, courageous);
Agna (saint), Amelie (work);
Atala (nobility);
Bit (blessed);
Bruna (brown);
Wilda (wild, free);
Hertha (spear);
Greta (pearl);
Jit (great)

The French language is very melodic and beautiful, it’s no wonder that from its vocabulary you can choose elegant and beautiful names for sleek doggies: Avril (open), Adele (noble), Aimi (beloved), Anet (benefit), Blanche (white) , Giselle (collateral), Inez (chastity), Claire (clear), Luke (light), Polly (little), Sylvie (forest), Flo (flower), Esty (star), Elin (nobility).

English and American

English and American nicknames can be heard in any Hollywood film; such names are already becoming cliches, and have been among the top nicknames for several decades. Now, of course, they are used less often, but for now they are considered the most popular: Smallie (small), Lucky (lucky), Sandy (sandy), Shiny (shiny), Bright (bright), Cuckie (cookie), Goldie (golden-haired) , Jane (simple), Ricky (restless).

Often in the West you can find double names: Popple Heart (purple heart), Fest Lady (first lady), May Dreams (my dreams), Pretty Baby (beautiful child), Little Pappy (little puppy), Windy Day (windy day).

Among the common Japanese and Korean names, Indian and Vietnamese nicknames, which are rarely used in Russia, stand out: Amita (endless), Ananda (happiness), Bala (young), Vida (knowledge), Gita (song), Jyoti (light), Kanti (beauty), Leela (game), Meera (best), Padma (lotus), Rati (rest), Tara (star), Shakti (powerful), Shoba (brilliance).

This could be an original name for a pet:

Jeong (sincere);
Mei (flower);
Tu (star);
Thai (friendly);
Lan (peace-loving);
Wang (cloud);
Kim (gold);
Scourge (jade);
Mi (beauty).

Chinese

Chinese may soon become one of the world languages; some people study it for self-development, while others study it to work with foreign partners.

One way or another, the Chinese nickname will suit any Asian breed:

Gee (pure);
Zhu (babmuk);
Kiang (rose);
Xu (snow);
Luli (jasmine);
Meili (beautiful);
Ting (grace);
Yubi (emerald);
Suin (simplicity);
Xia (pink clouds).

With meaning

To choose a meaningful nickname, you need to take a close look at the puppy. This may take several days. We need to focus on his first habits, behavior, appearance, emotions that he evokes.

You can create a nickname yourself. To do this, they play with words. An original option would be to collect the first letters of all names in the family. Or a combination of the first part of the month in which the puppy was born and the end of the camp where the breed originated.

Of course, relying on words with a ready-made embedded meaning, it is easy to choose an interesting nickname that characterizes the pet.

Rules for choosing a name

Each breeder, when searching for a nickname for a four-legged friend, decides for himself whether to come up with a simple, easy-to-call name or an ornate and long one. Jack or Ronaldinho? The owner’s intuition and life experience will help.

The first meeting with the owner is very important

Selection rules:

It is better to avoid long, elaborate designs to make it easier for a person to call out to a pet, and for the latter to respond to its nickname. In pedigree records, a Yorkshire terrier, for example, may be called Cleopatra, but in communication the owner calls it Cleo or Klepa.
There is no need to give a girl's name to a dog that is given to a family member or close friend. Confusion will arise, the animal will not understand whose name is: his or the household? Naming a dog Olya when you already have a wife, Olya, is a bad idea.
It is advisable that the nickname correspond to the weight and dimensions of the pet. For example, it is absurd to call a Central Asian Shepherd Dog Face, and a Chihuahua Panther.

Important! Dog trainers and owners of elite kennels often assign a nickname to puppies that begins with the same letter as the mother’s name. The name is official and is recorded in the dog’s documents.

Rare and unusual

Originality in choosing a name is always a plus. Because the frequency of using the same nickname can interfere with training, walking and simple interaction with the puppy. Other pets will run when called, or vice versa - the dog will run in its own name after another person.

An interesting rare name would be a professional word from the owner’s field of interest, for example, from astronomy: Omega, Andromeda, Comet, Alpha, Beta, Zeta, Delta, Iota, Sigma, Theta, Eta, Venus, Dia, Eris, Callisto.
Some breeders prefer to name puppies by brand names: Cola, Zara, Toyota, Mazda, Blanco, Bershka, Lacoste, Gucci, Chanel, Audi, Geely, Tesla.

You cannot judge the beauty of a name for a pet, because people have different tastes and different hobbies. Perhaps the dog will be named in honor of some great event or person who left a mark on the owner’s soul.

How to teach a dog a name

After much debate and searching, a name was chosen for the puppy. Now you need to accustom your baby to his nickname. This is an important stage of education, only after it can you begin training the baby: teaching the first basic commands, walks and socialization. In the process of habituation, a close relationship is established with the owner, and the baby begins to feel like a “person.”

Training rules:

They start almost from the first days of staying in a new home, from 2-2.5 months. The baby is given several days to get comfortable in the new space. You shouldn’t wait any longer; at the age of 3-4 months, the dog is already able to master the first commands;
If an adult dog comes into the house and its name is unknown, training begins immediately. Adult dogs are able to get used to a new name in a short time;
The nickname is pronounced several times, achieving the moment when the dog raises its head and makes eye contact with the owner. Repeat several times;
In the process, no diminutive nicknames are used, only the full form of the name;
In the future, interaction with the dog will take place according to the formula “name = attention”; there is no point in knocking the pet down;
All actions are carried out in a confined space so that nothing distracts the puppy from the process;
Reinforcement is given only after attracting attention and then after following a command.

Dog names for pets depending on size

For small dogs, as a rule, a nickname is chosen to match their appearance and character. Decorative dogs, regardless of gender, have a cheerful and friendly disposition. They are very mobile and active. For breeds such as Spitz, toy terrier, corgi, there will be cute, short nicknames: Asya, Dina, Mimi, Mila, Busya, Zosya, Norma, Jill, Fairy, Vinnie. Fluffy pets with a gentle disposition can be called Fluffy, Tuchka, Dandelion.

Pugs or bulldogs with an impressive but slightly comical appearance are called Sausage, Grunya, Bonya, Frosya, Bulka, Basya, Brunya, Plyushka, Sima, Shunya.

For large pets, solid nicknames that emphasize their status are suitable. They should not be too pretentious and long, but be convenient for comfortable pronunciation. Large dogs require proper upbringing with strict discipline; they cannot do without a training procedure.

Important! Dogs of impressive size are given names in which the first letters do not coincide with the syllables of the main commands.

Giant pets with a cool disposition will be given the names of gods or heroes from mythology. The unusual nicknames Freya, Hera, Diana, Aurora, Clio, Gaia, Leda, Hellas, Asteria would be ideal.

A large dog should have a serious name

A short introduction

Let's agree: giving cool nicknames to a dog is much more fun than naming a child. With a child, you know that their name will be judged on your choice for years to come by classmates, interviewers and others. But with a dog the rate is lower. No matter what you choose, everyone will think it's cute—so you might as well push the boundaries and choose a cool name for your dog. After all, you don't want every puppy in the park to answer your call.
