Has anyone ever had a name chosen before they had the pet?

Sam came with his name already picked out, and it fit him so we left it. We had already met Casey when she was 5-6 weeks, we decided to adopt her and we picked out a name then. My dad wanted to name her Zena..it definately dosen't fit her now. The family had always said they liked the name Boomer, so when we brought our 3rd home, Boomer it was.

I generally name them after I see them, however I plan on getting a Doberman in the future, and as long as it fits him, his name will be Romeo. I think thats the cutest name for an animal.

When we got Rusty he had the name, so we didn't change it because he knew it already and all..

No, I've never had a name picked out before meeting the animal. (cat/dog)
I have to get to know them better before I choose a name.
