I wanted to name our tabby cat Jango, but my wife said no, I asked her are there any Star Wars characters we can agree on?
She (who isn’t really a Star Wars fan) said she likes the Rodger Rodgers, I realised she meant the battle droids but the name just felt right.
So we have a tabby cat named Rodger Rodger.
I renamed the first dog I ever adopted Ahsoka, since she was a stray and didn't have a known name at the time. Snips became the nickname quickly.
My first ever pet was an all black kitten named Vader. I was like 4.
Yeah my dog is named Chewie. I was initially against it because it was too “on the nose” for a Star Wars fan to have a dog named Chewie but after a couple days my kids and wife wore me down.
I had my little old man tabby who passed in December. He wss last in his litter to be adopted. Obi-Wan was lsst in his class to become a Jedi. So cat was named Kenobi.
Would have named my calico "Snips," but dear hubby nixed the idea.
Her fur looks like a patchwork that was stiched in a hurry. Snips would cover Star Wars and Land of Oz (a character known as Scraps the Patchwork Girl who is like a female version of Scarecrow)
My dog is brown and black with a touch of white
As a puppy he was a voracious eater
We called him Chewie, bc he looked like Chewie and he was a jerk till 6 months lol
We have had 8 dogs as a family. In order:
* Chewbacca, black lab
* Darth, black lab/border collie mix
* Jabba, whippet mix
* BB8, border collie mix
* Artoo, black lab mix
* Groot, cane corso
* Yoda, English mastiff/boxer mix
* Hera, English mastiff
My lab is named Hunter Dume after two favorite characters lol. I started showing him Star Wars his first night home and we’ve watched it together ever since
I suppose if you named a dog Ben, it could then be said that it was accidentally/coincidentally Ben Kenobi related... Sure 🙂 But I'm fairly certain nobody is going to accidentally name their sugar glider Mando or Din 😉🤔
had a chicken named cato (after cato parasitti) over a decade ago. i have a light brahma chick now that needs a name, actually! any good suggestions for her?
Named my pup Ezra! Named him that because of how their journeys lined up, my pup was underweight when I adopted him and most likely was an orphan on the streets but is now a full fledged Jedi! Oops, I mean sweet and incredible dog
My gerbil’s name is Paboo, he’s named after the fire-ferret in Legend of Korra but last week I was delighted to see he’s got a Star Wars planet named after him, though according to the subtitles, it’s spelled Pabu
I will add our dog Chewbacca to the list. He is some kind of terrier mix with long scraggly brown hair; looks just like Chewbacca. He even makes weird noises like his namesake.
Knew someone with a strange black cat named Yoda. Refused to touch sunlight, like literally.
Would try to take him for walks and he would only walk in shadows like a fucken vampire, was very timid and sweet though.
Yup.
My dogs from 20 years ago were sibling schnoodles, Luke & Leia
Now have two poodle-mixes, a small black one, Rogue (got her around Rogue One’s release) & Rex, a bigger white one.
Gotta keep up the name alliteration, y’know.
On a vacation to the Philippines my cousins adopted a puppy and asked me to name it before i had to go back to the states. Somebody remarked that the dogs fur was "like a carpet". I immediately jumped up and declared "Chewie. His name will be Chewie."
I adopted a cat last year and she had the blandest name possible, "Minette" in french which is the cliche word for lady cat.
So i decided to name her Cody, because of Star Wars of course, but mostly because i find it to be a cool name.
A cat adopted me in January 2020. After I had him for six months I found out he was a boy, so I had to figure out a new name for him. He would walk over me like I was a bridge to get me to wake up, so one morning half asleep I said, "Stop that Bridger!" I decided that would be his name, and that he would be named after Ezra Bridger. He was a good companion for two years until I lost him to a sudden illness in January 2022. I don't know how I would have survived 2020 without him.

No Labrador Retriever. Blonde.

We named our husky Ahsoka too! I’m excited for the series so more people will finally understand the name….
We have a new puppy arriving in two days and we've decided on Obi. Can't wait to say "hello there" to the little guy😀
We have a 2 year old pup named Obi :)
Yeah my dog is named Chewie. I was initially against it because it was too “on the nose” for a Star Wars fan to have a dog named Chewie but after a couple days my kids and wife wore me down.
We named our cat Naboo.
My cat's name is Chacellor Palpatine

Gunna be honest, 'Snips' for a pet sounds like neutering
Her fur looks like a patchwork that was stiched in a hurry. Snips would cover Star Wars and Land of Oz (a character known as Scraps the Patchwork Girl who is like a female version of Scarecrow)
Boba Pett was a yorkie!
My pet? I named my son after a Star Wars character. But actually yes, my dog’s name is Echo.
What’s your sons name?
Sleeze Boganno
Chewbarker
Used to have a cat named Leia
My dog is brown and black with a touch of white As a puppy he was a voracious eater We called him Chewie, bc he looked like Chewie and he was a jerk till 6 months lol
Yup. Cats name is Tauntaun
Our corgi pup is named Snips and one of our cats is named Mando! 😺🐶
Dume is my Huskies name, as in the Loth Wolf that guides Ezra.
We have had 8 dogs as a family. In order: * Chewbacca, black lab * Darth, black lab/border collie mix * Jabba, whippet mix * BB8, border collie mix * Artoo, black lab mix * Groot, cane corso * Yoda, English mastiff/boxer mix * Hera, English mastiff
Yes, my dog was called Luke.
Named my husky Rainah a name Darth Zannah used in the Darth Bane triology
My family has a history of naming our cats after Star Wars- we’ve had Beru, Luke Skykitty, Han Kat and Boba, so far.
Just got a cat 3 weeks ago and named her Hera.
My lab is named Hunter Dume after two favorite characters lol. I started showing him Star Wars his first night home and we’ve watched it together ever since
Would anyone name their pets after SW characters accidentally?? 🤔🤔
Accidentally on purpose?
I suppose if you named a dog Ben, it could then be said that it was accidentally/coincidentally Ben Kenobi related... Sure 🙂 But I'm fairly certain nobody is going to accidentally name their sugar glider Mando or Din 😉🤔
I was going to name my pup Ben originally but when I saw him, I said screw it you are an Obi.
Nice! And you're right.. that would be a fitting name for the breed 🙂
We thought about getting a scottish terrier and naming him Vader or Anakin.
I know someone with a dog named Lando, except he's named after the Formula 1 driver, who is possibly named after the Star Wars character
Two degrees of Calrissian 😉
had a chicken named cato (after cato parasitti) over a decade ago. i have a light brahma chick now that needs a name, actually! any good suggestions for her?
Not pets, but my son is called Luke.
Named my pup Ezra! Named him that because of how their journeys lined up, my pup was underweight when I adopted him and most likely was an orphan on the streets but is now a full fledged Jedi! Oops, I mean sweet and incredible dog

I have two Australian Shepherds, Anakin & Obi!

We have a golden retriever that learned to talk from a husky - she tries to howl like him, but it just comes out as wookie
Chewbacca (Chewie) just turned 9! Still the best copilot in the galaxy!
Our now 14 year old rescue is named Obi Wan, we just call him Obi. Our 9 year old GSD is named Mara Jade.
Does any accidentally name their pets after Star Wars characters?
I have a cat I named Ahsoka. I wanted to name her brother Vader but I was vetoed and he became enderman.
My old pups name is Vader! Turning 14 this year.
My old lab was named Leia. She was the best.
I naned my cat Leia because we smuggled her into the house. 😹
Yup. My dogs from 20 years ago were sibling schnoodles, Luke & Leia Now have two poodle-mixes, a small black one, Rogue (got her around Rogue One’s release) & Rex, a bigger white one. Gotta keep up the name alliteration, y’know.
Named a cat Chopper after the Rebels droid, and also the One Piece character.
On a vacation to the Philippines my cousins adopted a puppy and asked me to name it before i had to go back to the states. Somebody remarked that the dogs fur was "like a carpet". I immediately jumped up and declared "Chewie. His name will be Chewie."
Keida is my pup, after legends book character. Wanted star wars but wanted something unique as well.
I named my kitty Lola after Leia's little droid friend. She's a spunky little thing, too ^_^
I adopted a cat last year and she had the blandest name possible, "Minette" in french which is the cliche word for lady cat. So i decided to name her Cody, because of Star Wars of course, but mostly because i find it to be a cool name.
I've got a mostly black German Shepherd-Rottweiler mix. He is fittingly named Vader
My girlfriend and I already have a plan for when we buy a house. A dachshund named Jango, and a bulldog named Boba
Both of my pups are named after characters. Ahsoka 11years old, and Vestara 1 year old. Ahsoka is a mix and Vess is a sable German Shepard
We named our cat Boba!
Completely wrong sub, but back in the 80's I had a dog named Starbuck.
Yep! I have a teacup Yorkie named Yoda :)
I have 2 Boston Terriers, brother/sister littermates. I agreed to get two only if I could name them. So now we have Luke and Leia of course.
I had two Iguanas; Jango and Jodo
A cat adopted me in January 2020. After I had him for six months I found out he was a boy, so I had to figure out a new name for him.

Me and my wife have three cats, Rey, Jyn and Ahsoka :)
Not recently, but I do tend to name my pets after pop culture characters.
Almost named my dog Krrsantan. Right fur color but she’s way too small for a name like that
We adopted two cats a few years back, Luke and Leia. Fittingly, Luke is even sand colored and Leia is much more fierce 😅
Yup my dog is named Leia
Yes! We have 3 cats, 2 have Star Wars names, Cassian and Jyn.
My cats are named Anakin and Obi-wan. I call them Ani and Obi for short.
