Looking for a cute guinea pig name, any ideas?

[sunshine1981]

We are going to pick up our new lil fur baby tomorrow! I am so excited! She is 3 months, so still a baby. She is going to be with our 3 year old girl Sunshine, who lost her sister a month ago. I would love some name suggestions! Any ideas?

Do you know what color she is? Usually names suit the piggy more when they match it's color. If she is brown, maybe Coco or Milo? If she's black, maybe Luna?

I think Artemis the greek goddess of the moon might be a good name. Moon could work too. Or Cupcake as everyone loves cupcakes!

How lovely for you. It's nice to have a few names ready to see what suits the little one. A few suggestions...
Aria - for one with a beautiful singing voice.
Lola - for a sassy little girl.
Raine - to go with sunshine to create a rainbow
Posie - for a pretty little girl.

Whatever you call her, I hope they get on well together. Have fun xx

I find piggies tend to pick their own names. If you have a few names ready see which one fits her best.

My Dennis was going to be Den but Den didn't suit him as he clearly waned to be called Dennis.

I've got an idea....
If you already have some names to choose between, you could post a photo of the piggy with a "suggested names" list down below. Then, fellow members of the forum can vote on which name they think suits the piggy best. The most commonly voted name wins.
This is only an idea (and a bit of fun) but it really comes down to what you are happy to name your piggy.

Depending what she looks like, names that might go well with Sunshine could be Sunflower or Moonlight

Dennis was my little Cutey Pie. He was soooooooo laid back.

I named my two Pansy and Poppy when I first got them. Pansy went on to suit her name in personality as well as looks, but Poppy had more of an edge and became Zola! She just seemed to suit it better! I’d say get to know the littleun for a while and then give her, her name . And pictures! We need pictures! . Pansy - right and Zola - left

Hi

Have read through this link here, lots of helpful ideas and how to work out which one fits best. It may take a week or two to get your piggies to know a bit more so that one name will usually stick for good.
You can go by looks within a theme but also go by personality - for the latter you want to give yourself a bit more time to properly meet the piggy in question.

You could call her Moonlight, for instance. That was my Ffwlbri's name in Welsh.

So sorry about the bad picks, she just does stay still! We are so happy to add this tiny lil baby to our family. Bonding is going so well! Sunshine who is 3 seems to be accepting of lil baby! So happy and excited! Anyway I was hoping to play a game that somebody suggested to me. If you can give a name that you think suits lil baby. I will than have a vote and you guys can help me name our new baby! All suggestions are so appreciated! I can't wait to find her name with your help! Cheers my friends!

Since her piggy friend is Sunshine, I thought maybe names to do with weather?

Bronte
Iris
Raine
Alize (Eliza)
Audra
Eliane


Other names:
Oak
Airii
Lavender
Jasmine
Luna

Are you sticking to a theme? With my boys I have used Norse mythology and my current pigs are Aegir, Freyr, and Heimdall.

As she is so fast how about Zippy or Lightning and I like Moonlight too. Also Sunflower. Take a few days to see which name fits. She’s beautiful.

 

[piggieminder]

I think she looks like a Misty!

Thank you for such a great idea! I think I will do that! Our lil new addition is just under 3 months! She is super adorable and cute. She loves zoomies so much. My guinea pig Sunshine is being so good with the baby!
