72 Funniest Pet Names That Luckily Our Companions Don’t Understand

There is something unique about the funny pet names we give to our four-legged companions. They might sound insulting to those passing by, but to the pet owners, they are special. Plenty of funny animal names try to put a smile on people's faces. However, the line between cringe and funny is thin, so it's important to think about the name beforehand. The funny names for pets we create are not always as hilarious as we think.

The good thing with many hilarious pet names — we understand them quite perfectly and get a laugh out of them, while our four-legged companions don’t. Unlike with a child’s name, we can be silly when naming our pets. Some funny dog names, like Big Dog and Glitter, seem ridiculous but suit quite perfectly for a pair of big, scary dogs. For the funny part of the name to stick, you have to play into the breed of the pet, its looks, and its personality.
