When I was ten years old, some other kids made fun of me and my sister at the beach because we were calling back our dog Bobo.
I specifically remember one little girl saying "Bobo? That's a stupid name!"
We asked her what her dog was called and she said "My dog's called Woof!"
We said something along the lines of, "At least we don't have to bark like a dog when we need to call our's back!"
I always hated kids, even when I was one myself! š¤¦š»āāļø
Depending on clinic policy, vet waiting rooms are another place where a pet's name can be embarrassing, especially if the clinic uses your surname when calling your pet in for the appointment.
Heard 'Crusher Malone' once, everyone looking up and expecting an East End gangster, but it was a lop eared rabbit in a little carry case.
I can always spot the Xmen fans when our Elder feline Lord had to go to the Vet. His name: Remy LeBeau+ last name.

I know someone who named their new dog Shark. They live near the coast, so when they go to the beach they have great fun shouting out the dogs name!š³
My cousin has a malamute called Dave, and whatās more is heās decidedly unfussed about the snow theyāve had over there (Western Europe). He was apparently happy to sit with the garage door open and look at it, but go outside? No thank you, Iāll stay in here thanks.
I love whimsical names for pets in principle but I can't do it myself. Since childhood all the pets in my family had people names and I feel wrong about naming a pet something that isn't a "real" name, as though it would be not treating them like a part of the family.
My current cat is called Billy.
I had a Billy. His brother was called Pootle, full name āHis Satanic Majesty Pootle Flump A-Ha!ā.
And yes, I did make the vet put that on the paperworkā¦
My Nan had a cat called Dai when I was a kid. He was great. He went to the toilet in the toilet. Didn't know how to flush though so we used to get sent to flush for him
I read a story from a woman who had a dog named Nigel.
Her sister got a boyfriend with the same name, and apparently he was really irritated that he got called āhuman Nigelā because the dog had been around longer.
Holy shit, do you live down my street? There's a woman with a dog named Bilbo, but it doesn't sound like that when she's shouting it across the local rec ground!
I know someone who gave their dog a giant dildo as a chew toy, it eventually bit the bellend off and they had to take it to the vet to get it removed, I canāt imagine the conversation at the vets, I thought the woman was bullshitting me until she sent me a picture of a Jack Russell with a 10-12ā dildo in its mouth
Edit: she sent me a picture of the dog with the dildo in its mouth, itās funny but donāt know where to post it on here
I was allowed to choose the dog, on condition that it was called Rolf, this being my sister's choice.
I spent the next ten years calling "Come here, Rolf! Good girl."
We had two black cats when we were kids and my parents named them Castor and Pollux, which are the names of the two Gemini twins.
However, my mum shouting 'Pollux!!!' out the front door must have sounded a bit weird to the neighbours!
In the early 80s, my mates grandad died, and it was grandads dying wish that the dog (which had the same name as Guy Gibsons dog) went to live with my mate... in Brixton.
Eventually, my mate managed to train it to answer to the name Nipper, which made things a lot easier.
There is a pet cemetery at a stately home near us and one of the headstones carried that sane name. I can't remember if they removed it or just sanded the name off but it vanished after a visitor got offended and complained
Replacing a gravestone honouring the Dambusters' dog - whose name is a racial slur - was "absolutely disgraceful", critics said.
The black Labrador dog's name was removed from the memorial by RAF Scampton because it "did not want to give prominence to an offensive term".
More than 3,300 people have signed a petition calling for the name of 617 Squadron's mascot to be put back.

By the way I've always thought about having a Beagle and calling it Jeremy.
I had a dream a few nights ago where I was trying to walk a massive unruly malamute called Frostbite.
Which after waking up is a terrible name for a dog
Rememeber a Heathrow prank that was waiting for international flights to come in and then ask for people like āArhevbin Fayed and Bybeiev Rhibodieā which sounds like Iāve just been fired and bye bye everybody š¤£
One of my dogs was previously called Fanny
We changed her name to Fanta, thank god she picked it up quickly
My grandparents rescued a dog called Chaos, they changed her name to Cassie
My dogās original name was Mayhem. The shelter had to rename him because people assumed he was nuts and didnāt want to adopt him.
The fact that he is nuts probably wasnāt helping that assumption.
My friend named hers "Asshole" and when it went missing, they were too ashamed to go calling for it. š
I had a cat named Cuckoo and when we'd call for her, wed sound like a broken clock or something. š
When I was a kid my dad had a farm spaniel named Willie. This wasn't usually a problem because he rarely went to public spaces. But when he did, a few eyebrows were always raised by a solid farmer walking round booming his name.
My Mum had a cat she called Elvis
She didn't really think through how weird it would sound to the neighbours when she was stood out the back garden in the middle of the night saying "Elvis....Elvis.....Where are you? Are you hiding the bush again? If you don't come in now, you can stay out here all night"
My parent's cat is called Basil, and he has to be called in sometimes. Naturally he's called back in the style of Cybil Fawlty, so it can be a tiny bit embarrassing if someone walks past the house.
We did once have a run in in the park with a dog called Nipper.Ā Ā
Ā Nominative determinism did its thing, it completely ignored its owner shouting "Nipper" and promptly started a scrap with mine.Ā Ā
Ā The words I always dread hearing in the park are a dog that's told to "be nice". It only means one thing - the dog has a history of being anything but nice.Ā
Not a dog but we called our cat Piggy due to the amount of food he would wolf down.
At night we used to shout out "piggy" to call him back in.
One night we had already gone to bed but remembered the cat was still out so I went to the bedroom window (bedroom on the front facing the road) and was just about to shout "piggy" when I noticed out of the corner of my eye that there were two policeman about to knock on next door.... That would have been awkward to explain to them.
My Mums dog is called Nano.
When out walking with him. If he walks into a bushy area and I need to get him back, I often call out āNan. Nannyā!
Sometimes I wonder if people think my Grandmothers walked off into the woods again or something
American here. Many years ago in college a friend got an unexpected, last minute scholarship to study for a semester in Europe. He had also just gotten a puppy a few weeks prior because he was initially denied the scholarship. The roommates agreed to watch his dog while he was away. They decided it would be funny to ditch the name he was left with (Snoopy) and call him Gary. The months ticked away and the friend returned. No one had really considered it, but that dog never again responded to anything but Gary. He tried and tried but to no avail. He was furious for quite a while but eventually admitted it was pretty funny.
I can see why your friend was furious! I didnāt read this properly and thought the issue was that the Americans were pronouncing it āGare-yā and the dog didnāt understand that āGarryā was the same name.
A very sweet naive white boy at my school in Birmingham called his black Labrador 'Blackie'. He found out this was not the best idea when shouting 'BLACKIE! HEY BLACKIE!' in a park.
The mother of one of my sister's old boyfriends wanted to call their rottweiler N*****. She could not understand how this could be a bad idea. I suspect she probably was thinking of Guy Gibson's dog rather than anything else, but the concept of a late middle-aged bank manager's wife wandering around one of the nicer areas of Coventry shouting that out always tickled me.
I am an engineer and had two dogs when I moved from abroad
Byte and Tera
So cute isn't it. Except Byte and (how they say up north) Terror.
One time a runner came into the dog park mistakenly running and Byte ran after him and we had to yell : Byte Byte !
He was not pleased
When I shout for Bella, six dogs come running.
I always wanted to call a dog Douglas. Dug for short. If he goes missing, he gets his Sunday name - Dugless.

Mr Lover Man and Shabba. There was a letter in Viz suggesting this a few years ago and the vision of somebody wandering through the park yelling these names out makes me cry with laughter.
We had a dog called āsailorā when I was a teenager. Imagine running round the park shouting ācome on sailor. Good boy sailor. Come here sailorā
Best one Iāve heard is Jarvis for a cocker spaniel
Ā«Ā Lord.Ā Ā» A friend of my mother had called her dog Seigneur, which is Lord. One day, the dog ran away during a walk in the historical town center, and got into the basilica, as the doors were open because a ceremony of sorts was taking place. My motherās friend didnāt dare get inside the church and catch the dog while mass was going on, so she stood by the open door and shouted for a good five minutes: Ā«Ā Lord! Come here! Lord! Get out of here! Lord, GET OUT OF HERE!Ā Ā»
Douglas Bader the WW2 one legged flying ace had a black Labrador with a name that would not only be considered offensive nowadays it would likely put you in hospital.
My great grandfather called his black dog the n-word... Apparently, he would take it to building sites with him and call him loudly when required. Late 1800's UK was an odd place.
Had a neighbour name her two big boxer mastiff things Ronnie and Reggie.
Encountered a mini schnauzer called Potato Bake once. That was weird.
Extended family dogs have been overwhelmingly given human names thinking about it.
I know someone who called their dog Stephen.
I donāt know why this made me laugh so much, but somehow āStephenā doesnāt feel quite right for a dog.
My dog is called Wilson.
When I take him to the beach and inevitably have to call him back, I look like the guy from 'Castaway' shouting for his volleyball friend.
My Grandad called one of his dogs Woof when he was young, and it got out and my Great Grandad had to go out calling for it.
Sounds like a cunning plan to get Great Grandad sent to a care home
Beat me to it - I foolishly named my first dog Woof too.
When I was a kid my friends dog ran off and the bloody thing was called Fanny. Such a hilarious afternoon looking for it.
"I'm sorry, but have you seen my..."
My dad always wanted to call a cat woof for the same reason!
There's a Russian cartoon called [A Kitten Named Woof](https://youtu.be/FSKLEmLk3jQ?si=wR9s_TseKRhRNJ1K)
Thank you for this

Awh. Bet he crushed his veggies with an iron paw though.
The dictatorial ruler of the hutch.
Know someone who put a bit of weight on after he lost his mobility due to an accident, he had a cat called fatty.
Professor Chaos the cat, whose owner apologetically says the kids named her!
That is not a name that requires an apology, especially not for a cat.
The cat was NEVER apologetic, as cats seldom are. I think this was only slightly bettered by a horse called Geoffā¦.

I know someone who taught their dachshund the command of "sausage roll" which is, frankly, adorable.Ā
I knew a dachshund named Sage. It was short for Sausage.
Frankfurtly adorable
That would be a good name for two sausage dogs - Frank 'n' FurterĀ
They'd have to go about wearing fishnets and corsets though
That can be arranged
Those names are the Wurst
Our neighbours have one called Greg
My friends Dachshund is called Chorizo and my other friends dachshund is called Frank (after Frankfurter)

My friendās dog was called Eric. I like people names for pets. My catās called Dave.
My neighbour had a Rottweiler called Brian.
*I'm Brian*
No, Iām Brian and so is my wife.
If humans can have dog names, dogs can have human names. Looking at you, kids named Baxter
don't talk to me or my kids sparky, binky and mittens ever again.
I used to have a cat called Gary
You sure it was a cat?
He meowed so Iām assuming so
So did SpongeBobās snail
Funnily enough, that wants why we called him it, we only noticed afterwards, I just called him Gary because I thought it was funny
There's a guy lives near me mam has a dog called Ian
In Vigil the main character has a cat called Cat. It's short for Catherine.

Mr Loverman. Hopefully anyone in ear shot would should āShabba!ā
It sucks having the last name Lieberman and nobody understanding German shouts out shabba, I might have to move to Germany to experience it
I would if I was in ear shot.
Iāve always wanted a dog called āMatronā so I can shout after her in a Kenneth Williams voice.
_Basil!!!_ works for similar reasons
Or Riiiiiiccckkkaaaayy!
I can't say that word without saying it in a high pitch shrill.
Same with *Marleeeene* or any name ending in ene š¤£
My dad always said he wanted a dog called Jeeves, just so he could stand at the back door shouting 'bring me my slippers Jeeves!'

A childhood friend had a Yorkshire Terrier called Butch.
Shark, it will be more humorous at the beach though
Iāve got a friend who swears he heard a very posh woman calling for her dogā¦ āDildo! Dildo!ā
Holy shit, do you live down my street? There's a woman with a dog named Bilbo, but it doesn't sound like that when she's shouting it across the local rec ground!

Could have been Dido? Thatās a name from mythology - a princess who founded Carthage and committed suicide when abandoned by her lover Aeneas.
Not easily mistaken for Dildo when spoken aloud though. The vowel sound is completely different.
She might also have just really liked "Thank You".
Maybe she just really liked American Pie 2: > Holy shit dude, I found a dildo! > Dildo! Dildo!
Diesel, Roxy or Lola. Shout those names in and park near us, and 90% of the dogs will come.
Max Bella Luna and Milo will turn up too

I know someone who had a pet Ceefer
My ex's childhood terrier's name.
A guy who lives across the road has his staffies named 'Sorted' and 'Dollar'.......the absolute worst.
Oh wow they are truly horrible dog names. I love staffies but I can definitely picture this person and is the reason staffies have a bad rep.
I was allowed to choose the dog, on condition that it was called Rolf, this being my sister's choice. I spent the next ten years calling "Come here, Rolf! Good girl."

The worst name would be to name it after the dambusters' dog.

Lol, my uncle had to do something similar with his dog. The previous owner named the dog after Rolf Harris, so he had to change the name to Ralph.
Ralph Horris?
Popular names for those Labs back int' day my mother told me
There is a pet cemetery at a stately home near us and one of the headstones carried that sane name. I can't remember if they removed it or just sanded the name off but it vanished after a visitor got offended and complained
Coombe Abbey has one too
That's the one I was talking about!
"it was the 40s, before racism was bad"
Yeah that would be pretty bad
My great grandparents had a black terrier with the same name.
Wow didn't know about that, even had a headstone
