Cute Pet Names: 5 Tips for Picking the Right One!

Posted on May 23, 2010 under Aquariums | No Comment

Are you searching for cute pet names for your new dog, cat, hamster or other pet ?  If so, keep reading!  Cute pet names are a very common choice among pet owners because let’s face it, what’s cuter than big eyes, wet noses, wagging tails and soft, cuddly balls of fur?

Even though cute names for our human loved ones might prompt other people to wince or do worse (ever seen the “Shmoopy” episode on Seinfeld?), cute dog names, cute cat names and cute pet names for other types of pets are absolutely acceptable .   

Now, I don’t want to get too pedantic , but the dictionary definition of cute is “attractive in a dainty way”.  Words like “precious”, “sweet”, “little” and “innocent” are also affiliated with the word “cute”.  If you’re ready to search for the perfect cute pet name for your new pet, here are a few practical tips :

1) Hunt for names with repetition .   Boo Boo, Gigi and Kiki are recognized as cute names, probably because they’re associated with the repetitive style of ‘baby talk’ (and like pets, babies are high up there on the cute-o-meter).

2) Find names that end in ‘y’ or ‘ie’.  Nearly any name can be made to sound cute by including the sound ‘y’.  For instance , the name Doug doesn’t sound too cute, but Dougie…well, that’s another matter .  Alfie, Pinky, Snoopy and Tippy are more examples of cute pet names ending with the ‘y’ sound.   

3) Choose names that are associated with being small.  Guppy, Baby, Bubbles and Petal are all examples of this.

4) Think food.  You know that expression “cute enough to eat”, well perhaps that’s why Cupcake, Muffin, Cookie, Honey, and Pumpkin are such popular cute pet names!

5) Pick terms of endearment.  Many people use names like Angel, Baby and Princess to address their precious humans, so why not use these names for pets too ?

There are genuinely hundreds if not thousands of choices when it comes to picking out a cute pet name.  Remember to have fun while you’re looking for the right one – and make sure that it’s something you won’t feel embarrassed to call out in public. Good luck, Shmoopy!

Acrylic vs glass aquariums … what you prefer and why?

Glass the whole way. I have tried both. Acrylic is lighter and stronger, but in the Moment you get a piece of sand in your cleaning / scraping element, it will scratch. I think that the glass is more than clear acrylic appears. I am currently a 26 bowfront gallons and 55 gallons a long salt water. I had a 45 gallons acrylic and it did not look so alive.

fish aquarium gravel
have my aquarium gravel to kill my fish?

I bought this artificially colored, blue, Gravel & I suspect it has killed fish.i my never noticed until it is too late, but it smells like toxic plastic.has someone experienced? yes & Gravel was purchased from an animal store.it is designed for aquariums made. Yes, and the gravel was purchased from a pet store.it was made specifically for aquarium use.

Most plastics are not toxic to fish. When the gravel was bright blue, probably was coated to keep the blue dye from leaching into the water and killing the fish, it is not surprising that as Plastic smell. I would suspect a lot of other things to kill your fish before I would suspect the gravel. It is very unlikely. You know everything about the Nitrogen cycle in an aquarium? Research that really well and then think again, the gravel angle.
