Would you name your pet with a Celebrity's name?

good day venkataraman_vc, with reference to your query, here at our end, we take it very carefully when we are naming our dog. hence, we take all the do's and don'ts of it. hence, it is not advisable to name the dog or pets according to peoples names' although some are still doing that. and whenever we named our pet, we are really looking on the book of names intended for pets.

I think it is alright to name my pet with a celebrity's name. I don't think it is something wrong with it. Since the pets are ours. We have the rights to decide names for them. But I name my pet with a cartoon character's name instead because I am not so interested in celebrities. I love China

In the near future, If I will have my own pet then I will name them with a Celebrity's name. I will name them in honor of my Korean Celebrity crushes such as Lee Min Ho, Jang Geun Seok, ang Kim Nam Gil. My aunt do have a dog and they named it with a Local celebrity name.

hi, I don't have a pet but i don't mind to call a celebrity's name... as there is nothing wrong with the name but yes, we have to make sure it is not hurting anyone's sentiments. Like the first response, Tom is fine but what if someone is hurt because of its name?

never i have deep respect of them all inside my heart. with all such respect how can one be. celebrity are like god which have made place inside the heart over the years. they are so dedicative how can we make fun of them.

its a feeel with which i give pet name like a celebrity have. like if i like a actress and love her then i gave her name to my little sweet squarrel, bt incase i hate a actor and i have his attitude so i gave my dog his name...cheers

I don't see that as an insult. A name is just a name. The celebrity is one of the people using the same name, exception with weird name that people probably don't name their child after. Unless it's a name that's bound religion, then I see a problem. For any other names, anyone can use that name and no one should feel insulted. I used to have a cat named Naruto. It was a fat and lazy cat, nothing ninja-like at all. My neighbour named his cat Syasya. There's a local singer named Syasya and I thought he was a fan. It turned out the cat only respond to that name and he didn't even like that singer.

My cat name is Tom and it comes from the cartoon "tom and jerry" but my Tom is not so fool.. Well, if it touches some celebrities like Tom Moody, Tom Alter then its just co-incident. I am not disrespecting them anymore. Have a nice time.

People sometimes name their children after celebrities or in honor of..., since i consider my pets to be members of our family so I find nothing wrong with it, think the only exemption would be if it's named after Gods or deities or religious figures that some religious sectors that I'm aware of would find offensive, so that is what I never do, anything that would hurt other peoples feelings then I would not name my pet after that.

I do not have any pets in my house. I suggest we should keep ordinary names and not names of important people or personalities or God's names.

Oh yeah some people do named their pet by celebrity or famous people's name.In our case,in our family,we usually get names from anime or cartoons so kids can remember it fast.

Yes I would, why not my neighbor loves Elvis and has a little dog named Elvis n Elvis stickers on her door lol..

It is hard to say If I would name ny pet with a celebrity name. It is not my style, I think there is enough name for a pet, and there is no need to name them with name of some living person. But this decision must be made by owner of the pet. But no wonder, even some parents name their children with a mames of celebrites. I think that is more ridicoulous.

Yes, why not. The celebrity's name. It could be a name. But It would be better not to call the pet with a name of famous one.

I think so.. that would be fun. I think i would name it after my favorite celebrity or a favorite character in a movie or a tv show.. if it fits my pet..

Some people get their pet's name on their favorite celebrities or character in a drama series. In our family, we have cats and dogs but we don't get their names from celebrities. I don't know where my mom got those names.
