Each owner with affection recalls the first steps of his pet, crossing the threshold of a new house: like an animal sniffing furniture, households, perhaps other household animals. Everyone remembers how the baby met his new family. But the most exciting is always the process of choosing the appropriate pet name. Especially if the puppy is a girl.
Selection features
Choose a suitable name for a puppy, which is a representative of the beautiful half of the canine world - a difficult task. Calling the girl the first nickname that comes to mind is not always appropriate, especially if the diminutive nickname will belong to a larger female.
Of course, you can relieve yourself of the task, and embark on the World Wide Web, where multiple online resources offer excellent names for all kinds of dogs.
Nevertheless, it is better to observe animals for some time, study habits, see how the puppy's mood changes, what animal’s skills possess, carefully examine the appearance, which will make it possible to make the most accurate choice.
If you compare the nicknames of males, the list of female names found a much greater variety. The nicknames of the four-legged representatives of the fair sex sound softer, more gentle, more harmonious. Moreover, one nickname can characterize several qualities of a dog, for example, an element of appearance and a certain feature of temperament.
First of all, it is necessary to pay attention to the character of the female, to observe her manners, to see what she likes. A few days of studying a pet will determine whether it is calm or noisy, fast or slow, sweet or threatening.
No less important factor in the selection of a suitable name - the appearance of the dog. Perhaps the animal has a special color, combining red, brown and black shades. Sometimes a puppy's wool is endowed with a marble color, thanks to which the search for a beautiful nickname turns from a banal task into the most fascinating family occupation.
No less important is the fact of origin of the dog breed. Although this question applies only to pedigree puppies. They have documents, passport, pedigree. Quite often the official name of the dog is already indicated in the puppy of the puppy being purchased. And in most cases it is long and complex, it may consist of several nominal values of ancestors. For the convenience of communicating with the four-lap girlfriend, the owner can only reduce the official nickname to the minimum pronunciation. Or use an abbreviation of the full name.
When choosing a unique nickname, one should not forget about the birthplace of the dog. Do not forget about the certain traditions of most kennels, where puppies from one litter should be named on a letter, which is the ordinal number of the alphabet. At the same time, only maternal lineages are taken into account.
In simple words, the first litter of the purebred female will bear the names of the letter “a”, respectively, the puppies from the second litter will be given the names of the letter “b”.
By breed
Earlier it was clarified that an important criterion for selecting a suitable name for a dog is belonging to one breed or another. Initially, it is proposed to consider representatives of large breeds, for example, shepherd dogs, huskies and labradors.Despite the fact that we are talking about the fair sex of the dog world, their names, like the male ones, should be solid and emphasize the peculiarity of the female. Long names are chosen in the case when its pronunciation can be reduced to a minimum. Although it is preferable that the nickname consists of several syllables congruent with each other. Has a certain power.
The husky breed belongs to the snow world, and it is better to choose a dog's winter nickname, for example, Ldinka, Alaska, Blizzard or Gerda. Some breeders, before finding a name for their cattery, try to get acquainted with the meanings of certain nicknames. At the same time, the most dignified name for a husky is the name of Ain, which means “pure, bright”.
Sheepdog is the most popular breed in the world. The names of these animals are selected a variety, although breeders recommend chanting them with short nicknames. The main thing is that they are not similar to the teams studied during training. The most common nickname for shepherd dogs is Adel and Elba. The name Hardy looks very interesting. Even psychologists say that sheep dogs with this nickname have a strong and strong-willed character. Mystics say this is due to the fact that Hardy literally means "power." Many German Shepherd breeders try to emphasize the ancestral roots and call their beauties Yang, Juno and Cora.
For Labradors, who are full-fledged members of a large family, nicknames like Bertha, Omega or Jasmine are suitable.
These names are successfully combined with home life and forays into nature.
With dogs of hunting breeds, the process of selecting a suitable nickname proceeds somewhat differently. These pets for a long time are the real assistants of people. From the same time, a person was able to understand that it is necessary to call hunting dogs with the shortest names, so that in the process of hunting you can quickly call out to your pet and send him on the right track. And modern hunters claim that sonorous sounds should prevail in the nickname of hunting assistants. In this way The nickname will sound brighter and louder, which safely affects the shout of a dog, which is at a great distance from the owner. Although there are hunters who neglect these rules, naming their four-footed girls in honor of the patroness of all the hunters Diana. In general, the most acceptable for female hunting breeds are Irma, Lada, Vesta, Yuma.
For greyhound dogs that help the hunter to drive the animal to a dead end, it is preferable to choose such names as Spark or Strela, which characterize the speed and lightning speed of the assistant.
Nowadays, dogs with miniature sizes have become widely popular. Initially, decorative kids were called diminutive names Pusya, Lyalya and Businka. And today, enterprising owners reward their miniature pets with more refined nicknames, thanks to which the breed size and femininity of the beautiful half of the canine world are perfectly emphasized.
It is worth noting that an important factor in the selection of nicknames for small breeds of dogs is the expression of emotions in the nickname. And it’s not just an ironic smile. So, Betty, Amanda, Mimosa, Gloria or Linda will be the ideal names for decorative girls. Of course, for animals of such small sizes you should choose the more refined and glamorous names of Barbie, Ariel or Blondi.
But decorative dogs are not always purchased for showing off, in most cases they are turned up for the soul.
By color
You can choose the perfect nickname for a puppy-girl, based on the color of her coat. It should be noted that the initially proposed and chosen variant is successful, since the color of a puppy from dark age to adulthood can darken or become bright.
Among the huge variety of colors, dogs with a red tint look quite bright. Accordingly, the name of such girls should be spectacular and at the same time convey the tenderness of the relationship between the owner and the pet. For example, Zlata, Zara, Ryzhulya, Freckles or Chanterelles.
Black color of wool is a fairly common feature of the appearance of dogs. Representatives of dark colors stand out against the background of the surrounding world at any time of the year. For this reason, the owner should call his pet an unusual beautiful name that will be in tune with a coat of wool. For example, Panther, Bagheera or Vaks.
Dogs with snow-white coat are rarely found today. But owners of such puppies need to choose the most unusual names, since the animal is endowed with angelic outline.
It is appropriate to call the snow-white pet Atlanta, Marshmallow, Snowflake or Snowball.
By temperament
Before proceeding to a detailed acquaintance with the names of dogs that meet the temperament of the animal, it is proposed to slightly dip into mysticism. Fans of astrology and numerology with confidence argue that every word spoken by a person carries a certain vibration, which affects the thinking process and strongly influences the character of a living being. For pets, the same vibration system works.
Every word that sounds to a dog has a certain energy. And the more often the dog hears these words, the more it perceives them, and even will begin to adapt to what was said. In simple words, if an active dog is told that she is lazy, she will actually begin to be lazy. In turn, scientists proved that it is the vibration effect of words that allows pets to understand their owners.
In general, each breeder noticed that the pet's nickname, given at a young age, largely characterizes the behavior of an adult dog. The puppy's name is called from birth, no dog handler can say for sure what a dog should become at an older age. From this it follows that a person, giving this or that nickname, draws the fate of a pet.
Choosing a suitable nickname according to the character of the pet, you need to familiarize yourself with the peculiarities of the acquired puppy, because each representative of a particular dog breed has unique abilities. German shepherds are guard dogs, Labradors are family creatures.
Lack of education in the presented dogs can lead to unpleasant consequences, and the initially incorrectly chosen name can, in general, affect the relations of the pet with the owner.
As evidence that the nickname of an animal affects its character, we give the story of one shepherd. The owner of the dog was not engaged in raising the girl, he allowed her to do everything. As a result, shepherd began to sleep on the master's bed, not allowing its owner to it. In addition, she began to behave abruptly and show dominant inclinations. The owner could not cope with his pet, and the dog had to be put to sleep. Named Sheepdog Adda.
Dogs possessing such a nickname show a very strong character, they are headstrong and very vindictive. Of course, the lack of upbringing also played an important role, but the puppy’s name is given almost from birth, and training begins later. It turns out that since childhood shepherd was endowed with leadership qualities, and the owner’s indifference only aggravated the situation. A similar option is considered the nickname Aza.
List of rare names
The huge advantages in choosing a suitable female nickname for a dog are unusual, unique and rare. And all because often used dog names can cause puppies to become confused even while walking. The owner will call his favorite, and a completely alien dog with a similar nickname can run up to it. Therefore, the rare names of dogs are considered honorable.
Quite often, breeders call their four-footed beauties nicknames associated with work activities or hobbies of the owner.
For example, astronomers call their favorite Andromeda, Comet, Delta, Sigma. People who are professionally involved in automobiles will necessarily reward their dog with a nickname associated with their favorite car brand, for example, Toyota, Audi, Lada, Tesla, Mazda or Priora.
And yet the most unique options are nicknames associated with ancient mythology. They can be applied to dogs of any breed, size, scope of activity. So, the nickname Aurora is ideal for both likes and pugs.
The uniqueness of the ancient nicknames is the presence of certain values and historical information that can greatly affect the fate of the dog. But the most common mythological names are Athena, Artemis, Hera, Clio, Liber, Pandora, Circe and Juvent.
Most popular options
In the frantic pace of the modern world, not every new owner has free time, which he can spend on finding the right name for a puppy. Therefore, the most popular and common options are used. For example, Orange, Lucky or Jack. Although today double and even triple nicknames are gaining wide popularity using both foreign and Russian words.
Moreover, double and triple options vary with the fashion trends.
Previously, fashion trends required to name animals by the names of literary characters, for example, Jena or Ariel. In the early 90s, the literature was replaced by serials, respectively, the preferences of dog breeders in the nicknames of their wards changed, where the names of Isaur or Tonya used special interest.
After several decades, the list of dog names, especially for girls, received a wide variety. So, puppies representing the fair sex of the canine world can be dubbed the name of the currency of a particular country. Still, the most popular nicknames today are Molly, Sophie, Bella, Lady, Eni, Rosie or Tasha.
Top foreign names
For dogs whose breed roots are of foreign origin, it is best to choose a nickname appropriate to their homeland.
It would be appropriate to give the pet a nickname corresponding to the place of birth of the dog, or to name the baby with a name characterizing the home country. For example, the female French bulldog can be baptized boldly nicknamed Chanel. For the Yorkshire Terrier, the British nickname would be ideal.
And the Japanese Akita inu will proudly wear the exotic nickname June, which in Japanese means “obedient”. The Japanese have always tried to emphasize the beauty of their animals, so they were called by their names associated with the beauty of their appearance. For example, Akemi, which literally means "bright beauty."
To date, practiced names for dogs associated with Japanese and Korean culture. This is exactly what fans of anime use.
Further, it is proposed to become more familiar with foreign names originating in various countries of the world.
First of all, it is necessary to consider German culture. This dialect is distinguished by a slight roughness in the pronunciation and frequent use of hard, solid sounds. For example, Agna, which means “holy”. Bit - "blessed." Hertha - "spear". Jeet - "great." Idan, despite the rudeness of pronunciation, is translated as "new love." Kiel - "favorite." Siji - "tenderness." Frida is an "elf." Hedy - "war." Erna is "immortal."
French dialect more gentle and melodic. Words spoken in this language seem beautiful and elegant. Respectively, nickname with French roots will emphasize the greatness of the dog's femininity. For example, Avril translates as "open." Aimi - "favorite." Ines - "chastity."Flo - "flower". Elin - "nobility."
Along with the French and German dialects, English and American are very popular.
And all thanks to foreign cinema. Commissioner Rex and dear Max have become stamped and held the brand for several decades. But for representatives of the beautiful half of the dog world even in cartoons and cinema chose unusual and elegant names.
For example, Lady, Tramp's girlfriend, or Nana, Peter Pan's girlfriend. In modern art, there are other names, for example, Smoli - "small". Lucky - "lucky girl." Kukki - cookies. Goldie is “gold-haired”, by the way, this nickname suits labradors very well. Ricky - "restless."
The double names mentioned above have become frequent in the West, and are of particular importance for female dogs. For example, Pepple Hart - "purple heart." May Dreams - "my dreams." Come on Baby - "a beautiful baby." Little Pappy is a “little puppy”, only big dogs with such a nickname will be very difficult. This factor should be considered when choosing a puppy's nickname.
On the territory of the CIS countries are very popular Asian and Mongolian names for animals. But despite the opportunity to use foreign nicknames, not every breeder will agree to call his beloved girl the hard name Bala, Rati or Shakti. Although these three options have quite interesting literal translations.
The same goes for Japanese names. Very rarely it turns out to meet a dog with the nickname Kami, which means "deity". Tenshi - "angel". Jun - "obedient." Yoshiko - "noble." Chika means wisdom.
Korean short names are characterized by brevity of spelling and pronunciation. It is important for them that the animal's nickname consists of only one syllable. So, once in Korea, you can meet dogs nicknamed Tu - "star". Lan - translated as "peace-loving". Kim - the "golden". Mi - "beauty."
Chinese nicknames, along with Japanese, have a certain rigidity and sometimes seem to be gibberish in pronunciation, but despite this, each individual nickname has its own flavor. For example, Zhu - "bamboo". Xu - "snow". Meili is “beautiful.” Yubi - "emerald." Suin - "simplicity."
Interesting Russian nicknames
Russian is by far the richest language, it is constantly updated with new words. It contains not only a huge variety of nominal names, but also independently invented unusual, original and affectionate nicknames that can be used to describe several advantages of your pet. Moreover, this unique name will not cut the ears of others.
In general, Russian-language names are selected for dogs of domestic breeds, northern and Caucasian, but even representatives of foreign pedigrees, for example, Korean Hindos, will proudly wear a Russian nickname.
It is important to take into account the pet's coat color, hair length and physical abilities.
To date, it has become quite fashionable to use the Old Slavonic vocabulary and choose so outdated names that, in principle, belong to the mythological culture. For example, Goluba means “modest”, Mara - “strict”, Dara - “gifted”, Diva - this beautiful and interesting version denotes a mythological evil spirit.
For dogs whose fate from birth was destined to serve in severe weather conditions, the nickname is chosen, corresponding to the seriousness of the work. And these girls are the coolest names - Blizzard, Taiga, Vesta, Aurora, Strela, Alaska.
For dogs with medium and small sizes, the nickname is chosen according to the coat color and temperament. For example, a miniature and funny baby in Russian sound can be Laska, Klyaksoy or Snowball. Representatives of breeds of medium size, it is appropriate to call the original Russian common noun names Bug, Chunya, Paw or Pretty Woman.
Today, there are Russian nicknames that are used extremely rarely. And some even believe that their roots have a foreign meaning, but in fact it is not. For example, the nickname Dusya is a Slavic word from the very beginning being a household name. On a similar principle, the nicknames of Lucy, Nora, Senya, Xenia and Zhenya are considered.
And let these famous names seem old and simple, in fact they are the coolest, and most importantly, significant.
Simple and short options
Choosing the right nickname for a little puppy is not an easy task, especially if the dog is representative of the beautiful half of the canine world. But it is not necessary to choose a unique or unusual nickname, especially if the pet was purchased for the soul and family content.
A separate issue is the future fate of the dog. If a pedigreed girl is brought up for breeding, participation in exhibitions or various competitions, she should have a stately and majestic name consisting of several words. But a puppy taken for family maintenance is more often given nicknames that do not have unique roots, are simple and easy to pronounce, and are easily remembered by animals.
The main thing is that the name does not have a general combination of sounds with command words, which are used during training.
Otherwise the dog will simply get confused and will stop responding to its nickname.
In addition, the names for the female canine world are often not only simple, but at the same time funny. For more information, it is proposed to see a list of nicknames beginning with each letter of the alphabet.

What do they call their pets celebrities?
Each person in his heart has a certain place for the love of small and charming pets. This concerns not only ordinary people, but also world stars.
For example, glamorous blonde Paris Hilton has a pet - Tinkerbell dog. A total of 17 representatives of different decorative breeds live with the girl, but it was Tinkerbell who got all the laurels of popularity. This charming dog participates in fashion shows, walks on the catwalk and even became the main character of the book, which appealed to many literature lovers for the light humor and irony correctly presented by the author.
As for fashion defiles, funds raised from events where Tinkerbell takes part are sent to the animal rescue fund.
Selena Gomez also boasts a wide heart and a huge heart. Thanks to her love for animals, she was able to save more than one abandoned dog. Along with her live six charming dogs, four of whom she found on the street, and took two from the shelter.
Yes, these dogs have no pedigree, they do not have great ancestors in the genus, but the mongrel fell into good hands, thanks to which they receive decent attention along with pedigreed dogs. Instead, they serve their mistress faithfully, always ready to support and come to the rescue. The only one girl name is Fin.
Along with the stars of Hollywood, Russian actors also pay attention to the problem of abandoned dogs. So, Konstantin Khabensky did not succumb to the trends of fashion trends and got a four-footed girlfriend from a sheltercalling her Frosya. A purebred baby with many diseases no longer believed that someone needed her. Constantine was able to inspire the animal that all is not lost. Thanks to good care and treatment, Frosya quickly went on the mend.
Now she, as the most real and devoted friend, always accompanies Constantine. Frosya visits his master’s workplace, everyone on the set waits for the dog. In addition, Frosya and Konstantin travel together to different cities. Khabensky's love for his pet is so wide that even when choosing a hotel room, he demands a separate place for her so that the girl feels comfortable and cozy.
In addition to the sleeping area, the hotel should have a place for walking animals so that Konstantin can take Frosya for a walk.
Special attention should be paid to the famous dog throughout the CIS, Labrador Connie, who was the first favorite of her owner, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. She, like one of his family members, lived within the walls of the Kremlin. Connie became the first dog of the president since he took office as head of state.
Labrador was presented to Putin by Sergey Shoigu as a sign of respect, loyalty and devotion. And Shoigu acquired the dog for the president not just from the hands, he carefully studied the nurseries and clubs, where they were engaged in breeding this noble breed. His works were not in vain. Connie was a very clever dog, obedient, trainable.
Unfortunately, in 2014 she passed away. During these 14 years, she faithfully served her master. The people of Connie say a lot of good words, and still do not forget. Journalists sometimes joked that Connie was the first adviser to the president, helping Vladimir Vladimirovich to withstand state upheavals and make decisions on serious issues. A little later, journalists began to joke that Connie is the successor to Vladimir Vladimirovich and even some liberals, having supported the humor, said that they would surely vote for her in the elections.
Many know that A book called Connie Says was released, telling about the life of its owner on behalf of the dog itself.. The publication was published in English and intended for children to learn a foreign language.

Tips
Finding a nickname for your pet is an individual matter. Each owner calls his dog according to his own preferences and desires. Cynologists, in turn, offer the newly-made owner 5 useful tips, thanks to which it will be easier to find the perfect nickname for a small dog.
- The complexity of the nickname. The name of the animal should consist of one, maximum two syllables. Three syllables and more sound quite difficult for a dog, and not remembered. Therefore, too long a pet name can be confused with a phrase or a whole sentence. A short nickname of a four-legged friend, even in extreme situations, will reduce the risks and minimize the danger. After all, as long as the owner of the dog utters the long name of the animal and gives the command, the irreparable can happen.
- The first letter of the nickname. Canine scholars argue that the female nickname must begin with a consonant. In this case, the nickname is remembered by animals much easier, especially with frequent calls.
- The uniqueness of the name. To date, it is important to call their puppies nicknames that are unique. This will avoid confusion during walks or in dog sports fields, especially if we are talking about exhibitions. In addition, the lack of uniqueness in the animal's nickname can lead to the fact that the dog’s image and character loses its own individuality, loses its significance.
- Reconcile with family. The name chosen for the dog should appeal to every family member. If there is no opportunity to come to a certain consensus, you can play in the family lottery, where each offers its own option. And already by lot the dog chooses the nickname she likes.
- The clarity of a canine name. When referring to an animal, especially to a puppy, which is only accustomed to its name, in no way case you can use diminutive nicknames or make additional attachments. Otherwise, the dog will get confused and stop responding to its name.
