    Shadow was the only one who went through a name change. When I first got her I just couldnt find a name that suited her...we went through lots of names..and finally i named her Shadow because she is black and follows me everywhere

    We when we first got Payson we had named him Neville then after a day or two we decided that we didn't like it so we renamed him Payson.

    Nope, all of my pets have their original names. Though I did name my rats Boo and Murphy for about the first hour lol. The only pets I've had that have gone through name changes were my old pit bull who was adopted and didn't have a name, so my mom's bf named him Spudz, and my old Siberian husky who was named Rauzha (like the tiger on Aladdin) but was a male, so we renamed him Cheeko. My stepmom thinks I should change Visa's name -- she thinks it's ugly. I think it's an awesome name, and I don't know of any other dogs named Visa.
    I've been BOO'd!

    Kaedyn was named "Milo" by his original owners. I like unique names.. so I immediately knew I had to rename him.

    Kai [Sheltie], Kaedyn [Sheltie], Keeva [Malinois], Kwik [Malinois]

    Bitsy didn't have a name before we got her. She was Bitsy from the first moment we saw her.

    Charlie was named "Shorty" by his previous owner. He was 2 when we got him but Justin and I hated that name, it didn't fit him at all. Within the first day we'd renamed him Charlie.

    Buster was 6 when we got him and he came with his name. The name Buster fits him to a tee.

    Nacey came with her name too. It fits her so well and we really like the name. A few people wanted us to chance her name to Lacey, but that doesn't fit her at all.

    Nova was never meant to have "Nova" as a permanent name. We found her on Thanksgiving Day and needed something to call her until we found her owner. We called her "Nova" in honor of the holiday (which is in November). We had her for about a month before her owner contacted us and basically said "keep her". Then already having 4 dogs we started looking for a home for her. It was about another month before we decided we had to keep her, because not only were we attached to this little girl, Nacey and her were inseparable. By that time we had been calling her "Nova" for 2 months and felt we couldn't change it.

    Once I name an animal, it stays! Clark didn't have a name because he was starting to be trained to fight, just a nickname "little Man" so we decided to call him Clark. Layla was Lady. 1. It was TOO common, 2. my mom's old golden she had when she was my age was named Lady because her registered name was Lady something of Woodlawn. I really wanted Layla to be Dalyla ( I have no clue about spelling, but I would want to spell it different.) My mom didn't like it and I suggested Dilly which she hated and she suggested Lyla which I hated and then we found Layla and we loved it. Niņo they said was Nino but we think the previous owners thought they were asking gender and so said little boy but we'll never know!
