Oh, you don't really want me to give the reasons behind names of ALL of our non-human family members, do you? It would take up a couple of pages all by itself
.
Some highlights, though:
Foxworthy Fuzz, my orange and white Pomeranian male. He looks just like a fuzzy little fox
.
Merry Man Underfoot, my cream Pomeranian male. He is a happy, jolly little guy who is always underfoot. Duh! *grins*
Fiona Pop!, my female Pom-Chi mix, was named after the character of Fiona Glenanne in Burn Notice--the tiny little, feisty, ex-IRA g/f of Michael Westin. Our Fiona is also called "Poppy", because she jumps up and down so much. So we added it to the end of her name just for fun, with an exclamation point on the end just to add emphasis. Fi never does anything halfway--just like the character she was named for.
Puck Robin Dogfellow, my male Border Collie. He is a crazy guy--I think something short circuited in his head after puppyhood spent in a pet store window cage. Very mischievous, and always into some sort of trouble. So, "Puck", from myth. Puck, the naughty sprite, also goes by "Robin Goodfellow", so my Puck, being a dog, got named "Robin DOGfellow", instead
.
Hope Leslie Jealous-Canine, my female Border Collie, is a hopelessly jealous girl who wants all the attention for herself
.
Fiesta, my Okeetee male, named because he looks like colorful painted Mexican pottery. It's always a party when Fiesta comes out to play....
Ceilidh (pronounced KAY-lee), one of my male Scarlet Macaws, is a riot of color. The name is Celtic/Gaelic in origin, meaning "Dance". Not alot more joyous than a dance and a gorgeous Scarlet Macaw, imho!
The Incomparable Bowie, my male Capri (3rd gen hybrid) Macaw. "Bowie" is a name from Celtic or Gaelic that means "bright", and he is SO brightly colored! We added "Incomparable" to his name because he's (along with his sister, "Blondie") the most beautiful macaw anyone I know has ever seen, including my somewhat biased self
. Here is Bowie, just for fun:
Had enough, yet? LOL!
