What would you call your pet?

[The Great Mass Debater 1,090]

Watching stand-up and by coincidence talking about a dog called Pukki. Nothing to do with ours. Got me thinking, if you were going to name a pet with a Norwich theme, what would you pick?

Yo-yo.

Little spider called 'Webber'.  I wouldn't make him wear a shirt & tie either, he'd like that.

I would consider calling my canary, Canary. No way should a dog be called Pukki...a goat on the other hand. 🤔 A particularly well-endowed pet, and I might call it Allcock. Otherwise, perhaps Jean-Yves de Blasiis just to keep any visitors on their toes!

Imagine if your partner was a West Ham fan, and naming another 'Nobles'.

...I'll leave the penny to drop. 🙂

I have a parrot called Hal. Around the same time I got him Chelsea signed Winston Bogarde. For some reason I started referring to him as Halston Bogarde - I honestly have no idea why. I still call him Bogarde sometimes because 'Halston Bogarde' is one of the things he says so it has stuck.

I honestly dont know why, it's completely random.

Fuglestad would be a good name I reckon

[chicken 2,624]

We rescued a dog last year, I didn't actually name him, but my wife decided that to appease me for her naming him - I've wanted a cat/dog for decades - she gave him the middle name of Teemu.

A "Middle" name for a dog?  You soppy ****s! haha.  Bet you do voices and pretend he speaks, too.

....oh wait, I do that too. 🙂

[Uncle Fred 526]

I would call it self funded 

[Grant Holts Moustache 105]

I had a giant African land snail called Hoolahan. Named because it only had one foot and went round in circles a lot!

[Walcombe canary 69]

Had a Yellow Budgie called Duncan in 1972, and the kids had a rabbit, I called it Flecky for them. What a Dad

[lake district canary 4,531]

We had a dog called Holt once, but it was a bit confused by it, we'd call "Here, Holt" and it would start to come then stop in it's tracks.....never could work out why.........

Would be for a bird. "Fugl" in Norwegian means "bird".

[NWC 240]

Back in the day I had 2 fish called Hucks and Leon 😍

I have a cat with no name, whatever I call her she never bloody listens!

Going for an Eric was/is a form of rhyming slang with some old mates. 

 

[Fr. Chewy Louie 137]

Tempted by Chippy next time we get a dog.

[Ross Parkinson 0]

Mine is called Wesley 

[keelansgrandad 6,679]

Mine is called Kiri.

But if it was on a City theme it would have been Stinkun Pinkun.

[A Load of Squit 5,162]

Do Geordies call their pets pet?

 

[Foxy2600 301]

I’d call it Shirley - as in Shirley this belongs in Non-Football😏

[Google Bot 3,275]

A pet monkey called 'Normann' sounds like good fun.  He'd love a suit and tie, unlike that anarchist Webber.

*Takes sip from drink*

Timmy (Krul) is quite an adventurous name for a dog too, a bit Famous Five like.  Oh god, this is SO MUCH FUN!!!  *Drinks again*

Kenton. I'd never beat him

[Mr Apples 1,320]

It'd have to be Hambition, so I could constantly shout "No Hambition" at it. 🤣

Yeah... but then I did that before we rescued this one, with my mates Chihuahua's. At one point he had four... and they are always arguing! 😂

I found if I started translating they stopped and started listening to me instead! 😅

Haha, brilliant.  My neighbour's dog has an Irish accent.  One I'm quite jealous of, truth be told!  🙂

[Lord Horn (again) 131]

Our dog is called Murphy for two reasons:-

1.  The Murphy boys were playing for us at the time; and

2.  He is black and white and as we got him just after a weekend in Cork, we thought he could benefit from being named after a pint of Murphys!

This is a genuine question me and my mate have asked for ages... do dogs bark in different languages? I mean, like, between breeds and/or between countries?

Only, the work for "bark" changes, and I don't mean bark itself, but in the UK we say dogs "woof" other countries have different terms...

One of my dogs understands Spanish and English. Unfortunately she mainly ignores both but she understands ok😡
