Well, I don't have a pair yet but when I eventually do I want them to be called something that goes together.. like Tea and Coffee, Jammy and Dodger type-of-thing :P Not those actual names, but you know what I mean ;) I hope xD
 
we started having them harry potter themed, then one came in that we named differently without thinking so our theme was broken, however we still had them all starting with an M (coincidental) so we try to stick with that now :)

I like to browse behindthename.com for name ideas though.
 
Mine are usually named after a theme, or their size, sometimes favourite bands.. it depends :)
 
[my cavies have names Chipik and Lilly and on slovakia page of cavies I made a calendar with names of cavies. If you want, I can write it here.

hi everyone, this is my first post here, hope it goes ok.

my piggies are generally named because of either thier personality or looks.

i used to have 14 at one time, but now due to getting old the numbers have gone down to just 6.
 
Misty got his name because of 2 poodles we had one was Cheeko and the other was Misty so since our dog was Cheeko we called him Misty. Sooty got his name coz of his colour. Was going to call him Blacky. And Brandy had his name when we got him. He looks more like a Honey tho.

my forum name is after my fav piggie, she looked like a poodle though. sadly though she is in the piggie run in the sky now.
 
::) Hmmmm! Lets see, well, I have no guinea piggies at the moment, but I just pick names that I like.
Usually off of baby name sites or out of books. Sometimes off of cartoons (very rarely, since I have no kids ::) only fur-kids). Or I ask people what they think they should be called and if it suits, I go with it ;)

I'm thinking if i get girls I like at the moment, Priya, Apple, Amelia, Edna or Gertrude (Gertie for short ;) ).
I like, at the moment, for boys Hamish, Patrick, Miles, Bailey and Onslow (I hope there how you spell those names... :P)

Nina xx :D
 
Zubin: I named Zubin after a funny dream where me and Zubin (an anestatist from holby city) rode off into the sunset in search of toilet paper LOL!
Edwin: I like all the old names and if was a choice between Eddie nad Freddie and abby(my sis) wouldnt let me call him Freddie she said he didnt look like a Freddie
Harry: was called Vinnie for a while and abby told me he wasnt a vinnie so i let her name him and she liked Harry potter and my dad supports pompey so hes also named after Harry Rednapp
Tia: was named by the college
Maria: was named by the college

and my past piggies
Rudi: had red eyes i wanted to call him Ruby but my mum said he was a boy and that it was cruel to call him a girls name so i callled him Rudi
Rik-Griffen: was bought for a friend for Zubin so was called this as he is the friedn of Zubin in holbly city
Guilbert: Was bought from a pet shop called Guilberts pets and my mum liked it i was 4 so didnt have much of a say
 
Hes a little cutie! he really suits his name though hes Ed most of the time and only Edwin when in cross with him or I'm stressed with them both then its a very firm Zubin-Khan Edwin-Cirrius! and they stop oh i didnt tell you all their heifenated names they are Zubin-Khan Edwin-Cirrius and Harry-Vincent (cos i liked Vinnie!) Tia and Maria dont have them cos i didnt name them
 
Pookie (Dutch) 4yrs, Golly(black aby cross) 4mths, Cubby (agouti & white rex) 3mths, & Pipaluk (DEW) 8wks - All boys, all gorgeous!
 
I usually name my animals after my favourite TV and film characters.

But sometimes i look at a pet and the name just jumps into my head.
 
I usually name them after a few days once I get to know their personalities. My two boys are named after characters of "Pirates of the Caribbean" as I had just seen the film a few weeks prior to getting them.

Davy (named after Davy Jones) and Captain (named after Jonny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow).
 
Cool Verity! I like your name too
